Alleged Desecration Of Corpse: Staff Of Ibadan Hospital Freed

Doctors and staff members of Ibadan Central Hospital, Ibadan have regained freedom after being detained for six days in allegations of desecration of the corpse of a 91-year-old woman.

This was made known by the Chairman of Ibadan Central Hospital, Dr Abib Olamitoye on Wednesday in a message on the hospital's Facebook page.

Olamitoye also thanked Nigerians for standing firmly behind him over recent alleged sabotage and malicious damage being done on Radio and Social Media by persons hellbent on pulling him down.

Olamitoye who broke his silence said he was relieved for the first time in November because he slept soundly.

"Last night, I slept soundly for the first time this November. Today is November 9th, 2022.

"The last eight days have witnessed sabotage and a malicious attack on Ibadan Central Hospital. To the glory of God, all the staff members that were apprehended have regained their freedom.

"With the redirection of my mind from the damage being done on radio, the social media attack of our brand and the news of woes being peddled, the burden I felt dropped. I went to bed light hearted and slept soundly. I give God the glory. 

"At 65, after establishing the two biggest private hospitals South West of Lagos, and the two biggest private hospitals in Ibadan, having authored 23 books to help different people from various walks of life develop themselves and create wealth, and having various other companies both in Nigeria and the United Kingdom, which employ over 500 staffers, I thank God for a fulfilled life. 

"Relief is, indeed, healing. 

"I thank all of you who believe in my sterling integrity, spartan discipline and impeccable character. I thank you all for your support and encouragement. 

"Yes, there's always light at the end of the tunnel and I look forward to continued impact in the society and the world at large."
