Protesters in Waterside LGA, Ogun State, on Thursday locked down the area over the death of a pregnant woman, Waidat Adedeji, who reportedly died after she was unduly delayed by policemen enforcing a lockdown due to the coronavirus pandemic.
While her husband would have taken her to the hospital with his motorcycle, the lockdown in the state would not permit him. “The police stopped the motorcycle to question why the lockdown order was not being obeyed. They were delayed for hours while she continued to bleed,” Oduroye Akintayo, the cousin of the deceased told our correspondent.
“When we got to the police station, we dropped the remains of the woman on their counter and some of the officers ran away,” a protester said.
