A 36-year-old woman, Mrs. Abiola, has died after receiving a buttocks enlargement injection at a clinic in Lekki Phase 1, Lagos. The Lagos State Police Command has arrested a nurse in connection with her death.
According to the Command’s spokesperson, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, the police received a report from the driver of the deceased on Tuesday at about 11:40 a.m. The driver stated that his boss had asked him to convey her to the clinic for a BBL (Brazilian Butt Lift) injection at about 3:00 a.m. on Monday.
At the clinic, the owner instructed a nurse to administer the injection. Shortly after, the victim became unconscious and started gasping for breath. She was rushed to another hospital in Lekki Phase 1, where she was confirmed dead by the doctor on duty.
“The scene was visited by a team of detectives. The hospital was also visited, where the corpse was inspected and photographed, before it was evacuated to a public morgue for autopsy,” Hundeyin said.
The arrested nurse is currently under investigation, and the police are working to unravel the circumstances surrounding the woman’s death.
