Osun: Single Mother Dies While Undergoing Abortion From Quack

The Osun State Police Command have recovered a corpse of a 30-year-old single mother identified as Yetunde who reportedly died during an abortion performed by an unprofessional doctor  in Ikirun, Osun State.

The body which was recovered by the roadside  in the Idi Isin area of the town left residents of the area confused.

Police Public Relations Officer in the state, Yemisi Opalola, has also confirmed the arrest of the quack,  Najeem Adejumo, who works in a private hospital in the area, where the late Yetunde was believed to have procured the abortion.

Another suspect in connection with the crime was also arrested as he made some useful confessions, police said.

Opalola stated, “Around 6.30am, the police recovered a lifeless body that was later identified as that of Yetunde, who was said to be living in the Are Ago compound, Idi Isin, Ikirun.

“Investigation by the police later revealed that the deceased had visited a private hospital in Ikirun to procure an illegal abortion, which must have resulted in complications that led to her death.

“The suspected quack, one Najeem Adejumo, was arrested and upon interrogation, he confessed that the deceased died during the procedure and that he dumped her corpse at the spot where the police recovered it.”

The deceased, also known as Iya Farida, was described as easygoing and gentle and many wondered what could have led her to procure the abortion.
