Operatives of the Lagos State Police Command have arrested a nurse in the Lekki area following the tragic death of a 36-year-old woman identified only as Abiola. The incident occurred after Abiola underwent a cosmetic procedure at a clinic in Lekki Phase 1.
The police spokesperson, Benjamin Hundeyin, stated on Wednesday that the incident was reported by the deceased’s driver at the Maroko Police Division.
According to the driver, Abiola, a resident of Diamond Estate in Sangotedo-Lekki, had visited the clinic for a Brazilian Butt Lift surgery aimed at enhancing her figure.
Hundeyin explained, “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.”
In a desperate bid to save her life, the driver rushed Abiola to another hospital in Lekki Phase 1, but upon arrival, she was pronounced dead by the medical staff on duty.
Police detectives have since visited the scene to gather evidence, meticulously inspecting and photographing Abiola’s remains before transporting her body to a public morgue for autopsy.
The nurse involved in the procedure has been taken into custody, and the Lagos State Commissioner of Police, Adegoke Fayoade, has ordered a thorough investigation into the harrowing incident to determine the exact circumstances surrounding Abiola’s death.
