The Police Command in Lagos has begun an investigation into the death of a young boy who died after some injections had been supposedly administered to him in a hospital in Ogombo area of Lagos.
SP Benjamin Hundeyin, the Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO) in Lagos, confirmed the situation on Thursday.
Hundeyin said that the police got information about the incident, but no one had made report officially concerning the case
“Yes, we are aware of the case. The father of the deceased came to the station but refused to write a statement.
“The hospital staff also came to the station without making any statement. For the benefit of all, they were transferred to the state CID for proper investigation,” he said.
A viral video which has been circulating shows a man crying and lamenting how a nurse gave four injections to his son (name unknown) who had died as a result of the drugs administered.
The video also showed the lifeless body of the child on a stretcher with the father crying beside him.
The man claimed that the son was administered some drugs on Wednesday and he had puked after each injection.
He stressed that a nurse had administered the four injections to the child without the child eating food and the child died.
