The Police in Lagos on Friday attributed the immediate cause of the death of late singer, Mohbad to Ms. Feyisayo Ogedengbe, the auxiliary nurse who administered a cocktail of injections to him at his Lekki, Lagos residence hours before he passed on.
Mr. Idowu Owohunwa, the Lagos State Commissioner of Police told journalists that the nurse is now regarded as the prime suspect in the death of the musician.
The Police Commissioner said the auxiliary nurse was invited by a friend of the deceased musician, Ayobami Sadiq, also known as ‘Spending’ to treat him on 11 September 2023, but she came the next day during which she administered a cocktail of injections directly led to the death of the singer.
The Police Commissioner added that the nurse and other experts corroborated that the cocktail of injections led to Mohbad’s death.
Owohunwa said: “The Auxiliary Nurse who was contacted and invited by Ayobami Sadiq (a.k.a Spending), a friend to Mohbad, on 11th September 2023 to treat the singer at the deceased’s residence at Lekki-Lagos.
“She eventually came on Tuesday, 12th September 2023 and administered three different injections which are believed to have occasioned the chain of reactions that directly resulted in the death of the singer
She acknowledged that the injections she administered to the deceased triggered the reactions which eventually led to Mohbad’s death. Other expert opinions and witnesses corroborated her admittance.
“Her actions of administering doses of Tetanus Toxoid, Paracetamol (IV) and Ceftriaxone injection (IV) on Mohbad at his residence on 12th September 2023 immediately and directly triggered the reactions (including vomiting, goose bumps, convulsion) that eventually resulted in the singer’s death.
- This criminal liability is further heightened granted the evidential fact that as an auxiliary nurse, she is not qualified to administer such medications or function as a qualified nurse. She also did this in a non-clinical environment and in a professionally negligent manner that negated standard medical protocols.”
