One Mr. Emmanuel Timothy has accused his wife of being responsible for his wife’s death.
The late Mrs Grace Emmanuel died on Monday after rejecting blood transfusion at the National Hospital in Abuja.
The aggrieved husband in an interview disclosed that his wife died
“because her Jehovah Witness family rejected blood transfusion…they
refused to consent to her having a blood transfusion.”
According to Timothy, his wife after having had a complicated
miscarriage was made to undergo a surgery which further resulted into
complications.
He said “When she complained of serious stomach ache, we rushed her
to the National Hospital where the doctor said her stomach had to be
flushed. But, before the flushing, they said she needed blood
transfusion because she had already lost such much blood. However, she
did not get the blood transfusion because her religion and family forbid
blood transfusion. Over our dead body, it is better she dies than for
her to take another person’s blood, they said to me.”
Timothy Emmanuel stated that he would be pressing charges against his late wife’s family.
