How contaminated blood caused death of Wigwe Varsity Registrar — Family source

The Registrar of Wigwe University, Ms. Ulonna Inyama, has died under mysterious circumstances in Abuja, sparking concerns about medical negligence and hospital safety.

Contrary to initial reports, a confidante of the deceased revealed that Inyama did not undergo fibroid surgery. Instead, she was given contaminated blood to treat anaemia. .
The source, who wished to remain anonymous, stated, “I don’t want to be quoted, but I was with her in the hospital last Tuesday in Abuja.”

According to the source, Inyama died due to complications from the wrong blood transfusion, not fibroid surgery.

The source explained, “She died of loss of blood due to complications from the wrong blood transfusion, not fibroid surgery. We were told that she was given contaminated blood, which led to her death.”

The incident has raised questions about the quality of medical care and safety protocols in Nigerian hospitals.

The family has demanded an investigation into the circumstances surrounding Inyama’s death.

The death came months after the tragic loss of Wigwe University’s founder, Herbert Wigwe, who died in a helicopter crash in California, USA, along with his wife and son.

The university community is still reeling from the loss of its founder and now faces another devastating blow with the loss of its Registrar.
