IMO STATE- A pregnant woman has reportedly passed in Owerri, Imo State, after doctors performed a surgical operation on her using YouTube-guided videos
A pregnant woman in Imo State died after a doctor allegedly performed a Caesarean Section (CS) on her using a YouTube video.
In a social media video, the deceased’s spouse, Onyekachi Eze, was brought by renowned Nollywood producer Stanley Ontop to the Imo Police Command on Tuesday to report the crime.
This was made known to the public in a post by Nollywood producer Stanley Ontop.
Onyekachi Eze, the deceased’s husband, revealed the sad story in a video on Tuesday.
Eze revealed that the incident occurred at Lebechi Hospital in Owerri, Imo State’s capital.
Eze narrated the incident.
“I carried my wife to the hospital when she was in labour, and the doctor said she needed to undergo an operation because she was bleeding.
“So the female doctor called another doctor to come and operate on her. Right in my presence, they were using their phones to watch a YouTube video on how to perform surgery, and I lost my wife and my baby during the process.”
Shortly after the report, Stanley shared an updated video showing how the police arrested the owner of the hospital after the doctors absconded.
Captioning the video, he wrote, “The owner of the hospital where doctors were watching YouTube on how to perform surgery on a pregnant woman has been arrested. Nurses were arrested, too, but the doctors who performed the surgery had absconded. They are still being searched for.”
