The Lagos State Government has launched a full-scale investigation into the death of a pregnant woman, Mrs. Folajimi, who allegedly died after being refused medical attention at a private facility in Lakowe, Ibeju-Lekki, due to her inability to pay a financial deposit.
Preliminary reports suggest that despite being in critical condition, Mrs. Folajimi was denied urgent medical care, which may have contributed to her death. The incident involves both a private hospital and a traditional birth attendant.
