POLICE ARREST LAGOS NURSE OVER WOMAN’S DEATH AFTER BBL SURGERY
Operatives of the Lagos State Police Command have arrested a nurse in the Lekki area of the state following the death of a 36-year-old woman, known only as Abiola.
Police spokesperson, Benjamin Hundeyin, in a statement, on Wednesday, said the driver of the deceased reported the incident at the Maroko Police Division.
Hundeyin said the driver reported that that his employer, a resident of Diamond Estate in Sangotedo-Lekki, whom he drove to a clinic in Lekki Phase 1 for a cosmetic procedure to enhance her figure — specifically, a Brazilian Butt Lift, died.
He said, ”Upon our arrival, the clinic owner directed a nurse to administer the injection on Abiola. Moments later, chaos ensued as the woman lost consciousness and started gasping for breath.
“Desperate for help, the driver rushed Abiola to another hospital in Lekki Phase 1 but she was confirmed dead by the staff on duty upon arrival.”
Hundeyin added that detectives had visited the scene, where they meticulously gathered evidence, inspected and photographed her remains and subsequently transported the corpse to a public morgue for autopsy.
He confirmed that the nurse involved has been taken into custody and the commissioner of police, Adegoke Fayoade, has asked for an investigation into the harrowing incident.
