MS Ulonna Inyama, the Registrar of Wigwe University, has tragically passed away under mysterious circumstances in Abuja, raising serious concerns about medical negligence and hospital safety in Nigeria.
According to a family source who spoke to Vanguard, Ms Inyama’s death resulted from complications following fibroid surgery and an erroneous blood transfusion. Initially admitted to a hospital in Abuja for fibroid treatment, she reportedly received the wrong blood type, leading to a fatal reaction.
“She died of loss of blood due to fibroid complications under mysterious circumstances. We were told that a wrong blood transfusion led to her death. When her condition worsened due to complications, she was referred to another hospital, where she passed on,” the family source explained.
The family has called for an investigation into the circumstances surrounding Ms Inyama’s death to ensure accountability and prevent future occurrences.
This tragedy comes barely six months after the death of Wigwe University’s founder, Herbert Wigwe, who perished in a helicopter crash in California, USA, alongside his wife, son and a business partner. The university community, still grieving the loss of its founder, now faces another devastating blow with the loss of its registrar.
