Nigerians on social media are outraged following the release of a video showing a Nigerian father refusing medical assistance for his ailing daughter, Precious, just because his church, Jehovah's Witness, is against blood transfusion.


The video was shared by activist, Harrison Gwamnishu, who met with the parents in Sapele, Delta state.


Precious suffers from Hydrocephalus and might need blood transfusion if a surgery is carried out on her.

Her father in a chat with Harrison, said he is not opposed to medical help for his daughter but what he will never consent to is for a blood transfusion to be done on his 1 year and 7 months old daughter.

''We in Jehovah's witnesses, we don't take blood. I would not want to transfuse blood into the child. We will not accept blood transfusion. If in the course of surgery they would transfuse blood in the child, we would not want that. I don't want my baby to die but that is our faith'' he said

OMG

Where in the Bible is it forbidden to do blood transfusion
I want to learn.

I thought the church admitted it was wrong. Wasn't the Nigerian church updated about it or is this father just ignorant?
BTW, why is he posing in the picture?

Ha it is well o

This is one of the many reasons I dislike Religion.

Whew! May God Himself liberate His people...what an ignorant mofo!

Ignorance is a bad disease

Chaiii...how is he sure his church leaders isn't transfusing blood when they or their loved ones is sick.

When you suck another person’s saliva in the form of kissing during sex (whether married or otherwise), it is not an abomination. But when you transfuse blood to save life from one person to another, it becomes a grievous sin. I marvel at the stupidity of Jehova Witnesses

My "educated" roommate told me back then it's due to a passage that says we should "abstain from blood".

I simply asked him the red meat he eats and the chicken and chicken bone marrow he chews what does he think he is eating?

JW in the house also answer these questions.

I also asked him if God forgives sin, he said yes. I asked him which sin would he like to pray to be forgiven? Letting the wife or child take blood transfusion or causing their death?



When the bible talks about abstaining from blood, there's a spiritual meaning to it. Blood was used in the days of old for sacrifices. There's still strong spirituality in blood, and it is still used today for fetish acts.

Jesus paid the ultimate sacrifice on the cross and shed his blood so we don't have to use blood again for atonement of sin. We just tap into that everlasting source. That's why we should abstain from blood. Not causing the death of your loved ones because of human understanding.

Religion that we carry on the head like gala.

He already wish the baby is dead and saves them unnecessary headache.

Sir, one day you will look back and regret ur foolishness in the name of religion.

pipu they vex o
