A woman was said to have died in front of the Primary Health Centre in Oke-Ilewo, Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital.

In a video obtained by DAILY POST, the lifeless body of the woman was seen lying on the floor, right in front of the hospital, on Saturday.

There was panic among residents of Abeokuta, who suspect the woman must have died of the ravaging Coronavirus pandemic.

DAILY POST recalls that on Tuesday, a young man had died inside a car on his way from Sagamu to Abeokuta. His corpse was dumped by the roadside.

DAILY POST reports that Ogun State Government has confirmed that the video was truly from the Oke-Ilewo health centre.

In a statement by the Commissioner for Health, Dr Tomi Coker, it was learnt that the victim was “brought in dead” by the husband.

The Commissioner said an unknown person had recorded the video when the husband and driver were hurriedly pushing the body out of the car.

According to her, the matron of the hospital immediately arranged for an ambulance which evacuated the corpse.

Coker disclosed that both the deceased and her husband were tested for COVID-19, saying the results are still being awaited.

She added that the premises of the hospital had been fumigated, urging the people not to panic.

The statement reads…

Maybe its even Hunger virus that killed her & not corola birus

And when Bill and Melinda Gates foresaw dis few weeks back myopic and dumb Nigerians were quick to label them d antichrist...

Are they sure it's not hunger that killed her?

God help us

this is bad. but the Lord is our strength and shield

God will continue to keep us safe.

Happy Sunday to you all. May God continue to keep us safe from end time disease.

Any death now is covid 19 . Wondering if there no more natural deaths or deaths from other causes again in this country

See has people dey Walker pass the woman self

May the grace of the lord be with us all

Why are people in a hurry to blame corona virus for any death lately?
The woman could have died of any other ailment.

May God give the family the fortitude to bear the loss.

Well, even in the jungle that is Nigeria, how often have you read stories of persons lying dead right in front of a hospital?
You got to admit that somethung about this don't seem normal even as far as nigeria's normal is concerned

It is well. This 2020 get as e be. May her soul rest in perfect peace. The story is contradicting though. A part says the husband pushed her out of the car and other claims both have been tested and are awaiting results. If the husband pushed her out of the car would he wait to be tested? I guess they are trying to cover up the facts.

Na wah...

Meanwhile an autopsy will be best carried out before ascribing the cause of fatalityas corona virus....

One hungry man died nah Coro sha ni!

Okay

With the covid 19 patients I saw protest in Gombe I hardly take this coro serious.. I thought they will be so weak to even protest. God save the world

May her soul RIP. We should not always attribute every death to COVID-19. This is likely to cause more panic in that community.

Got to this?

any death now is covid related
na wA

So bad. Vision 2020, what has the world done to you? May her soul rest in!

Doctors and Nurses of Government hospitals where savages before but now they are demonic savage

just last week I heard , hospitals now reject Asthma patient, and patient with advance stage of fever

.

Sad,RIP to the dead..

Melinda oooo

Every death now relates to Covid-19?

But why conclude that she died of coronavirus?

There have always been dead people in the streets of Africa Melinda!

They said people should comply with lockdown. Though, it's not easy o but this situation warrants it
