Police arrest five hospital employees over missing placenta, umbilical cord in Kwara

Five employees of the medical facility, including a medical doctor, are now in police custody, the spokesperson of the command, DSP Ejire Adeyemi Toun, confirmed to DAILY POST on Saturday. She said, 'The unfortunate incident of the missing umbilical cord is true, discreet investigation is ongoing at the state criminal investigation department, further details will be communicated to you upon its conclusion.' Reports reaching DAILY POST indicated that the incident occurred last Sunday.

B Williams, said she raised the alarm after the doctor and nurses who delivered the baby failed to produce the placenta and umbilical cord. “Some of their staff started telling me they were sorry that there was a mistake. The attendant said she had thrown the placenta inside a pit but they could not find it suggesting a dog might have eaten it. “That was when I flared up with some members of my church who were also present that it’s not possible that they just have to present the placenta”.
