The Lagos State Coroner’s Court in Ikorodu, has ordered the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) to prosecute Feyisayo Ogedengbe, the auxiliary nurse who administered the injection that allegedly led to the death of Nigerian singer Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad.
Penpushing reports that Magistrate C.A. Shotobi, delivering ruling on Friday held that Ogedengbe was neither a registered nurse nor a licensed medical practitioner and, therefore, acted unlawfully by administering the tetanus injection that reportedly triggered the complications resulting in the Mohbad’s death.
The coroner in the same vein, expressed concern over regulatory lapses in the health sector, which she said have allowed unqualified individuals to operate as healthcare providers.
Penpushing further reports that the court in related directive ordered an investigation into the failure of the Nigeria Police to act on a petition filed by the late musician before his death, urging the relevant authorities to determine whether there was official negligence.
