The Lagos State Police Command is currently investigating the circumstances surrounding the death of Mrs. Abiola, a 36-year-old resident of Diamond Estate, Sangotedo.
She died after receiving a BBL injection aimed at buttock enlargement in a clinic in Lekki Phase 1.
Confirming the incident, the spokesperson Lagos State Police Command SP Benjamin Hundeyin said on August 27, 2024, at approximately 11:40 am, a private driver reported an incident at the Maroko Division.
The driver, who had been employed by Mrs. Abiola, a 36-year-old resident of Diamond Estate, Sangotedo, Ibeju-Lekki, detailed a disturbing sequence of events.
Explaining further, he said that on August 26, 2024, at about 3 pm, Mrs. Abiola requested to be taken to a clinic in Lekki Phase I for a BBL injection aimed at buttock enlargement. Upon arrival, the clinic’s owner directed a nurse to administer the injection. Shortly thereafter, Mrs. Abiola became unconscious and began gasping for breath.
“Despite immediate efforts to rescue her and transport her to a nearby hospital in Lekki Phase I, Mrs. Abiola was pronounced dead by the attending physician.”
Hundeyin stated that following this, a team of detectives visited the scene and the hospital, where they inspected and photographed the body. The corpse was subsequently transported to a public morgue for an autopsy.
“The nurse involved in the incident has been arrested, and an investigation is currently underway,” Hundeyin added.
