VIDEO: Pregnant woman dies after hospital allegedly denies treatment over cash deposit

A pregnant woman, Kemi Akinbobola, has tragically passed away after allegedly being denied medical treatment at a private hospital due to her inability to pay a N500,000 deposit.

The incident, initially shared on Instagram by her husband, Akinbobola Folajimi, gained widespread attention on social media.

In a heartbreaking video, Kemi, visibly weak, was seen inside a car while her husband pleaded with her to stay conscious.

“My goodness, Kemi, look at me. Stay strong, look at me. Think about your kids, please.

You need to be very strong for me,” Folajimi desperately urged.

According to him, the private hospital refused to provide emergency care without the deposit.

Despite his pleas for immediate attention while he sourced the money, the hospital allegedly turned them away.

“Private hospitals in Nigeria. The doctor told me to deposit 500k, and I begged him to start doing whatever was needed to save my wife, but they drove us out like they didn’t care,” Folajimi recounted.

He added that they were referred to a general hospital in Epe, but Kemi didn’t survive the journey.

“Even the doctor knows that Epe from Lakwe is way too far for such a condition. Before we rushed her to Epe, she was gone,” he lamented.

The video has sparked outrage online, with many expressing anger over the state of healthcare in Nigeria and the alleged negligence of private hospitals.
