Lagos-Based medical practitioner, who pleaded anonymity, has said both the school and the parents failed to give the late Sylvester Oromoni (Jr) the medical attention he deserved....CONTINUE READING THE FULL ARTICLE>>>
He suggested that the deceased could have suffered severe disorientation and hallucination when he made his dying declaration.
The medical expert, who declined to be named because he was not permitted to speak to journalists due to the sensitivity of the case, also said the boy could have been given dangerous concoctions when he was taken to a church for miracle healing.
“The black substance found in the boy’s stomach could even be as a result of the ‘trado-medical’ medicines prepared for him in church,” the doctor with vast knowledge of radiology and pathology said. “The parents have a larger share of the blame for the death of their son.”
Corroborating the above analysis, a medical consultant, Dr. Hameed Adediran, said the pathologist that revealed that the boy died of sepsis was more painstaking in his submission. He also said the parents could have saved the life of their child, if they didn’t treat the case mildly.
Dr. Sunday Soyemi, a consultant pathologist, who has conducted over 500 autopsies, blamed the parents of the deceased for negligence, saying sepsis, which led to the boy’s death, could have been treated with “massive doses of intravenous antibiotic, intravenous fluid and blood transfusion.”
The pathologist insisted that the first pathologist, who conducted the initial autopsy on the deceased failed to cut some organs that would have revealed whether the late Sylvester died of ingestion of poisonous substance.
