A level 200 law student of the University of Ghana (Legon) by name Nana Obeng Owusu Jnr. has met his untimely death after allegedly been wrongly injected by a male nurse of the Ewim Polyclinic in Cape Coast in the Central Region of Ghana.

The disturbing occurrence which has soon amassed wide media airing is said to have happened on Monday, October 9, 2023 around 8pm.

Mrs. Nelly Mills, Mother to the deceased in an interview with Sompa News Eric Annan disclosed to have sent her strong and healthy son to the aforementioned hospital for first aide treatment, as the son felt the need for a nebulizer having battled Asthma for ten (10) years now.

"We went to the hospital around 8pm and the accused nurse responsible for my son's death by name Micheal at the emergency ward having earlier shouted at us, later wrote a medicine for me to go buy.

Hence left Nana Obeng and his brother in the care of this nurse, only to return in about 15minutes time to see my son in a restless mood panting and foaming."

"The nurse upon interrogation, confirmed to me to have administered an injection on my son which wasn't our motive of being to the hospital but for a nebulizer. Having sent me out for a medicine which cost me only GH¢7 to be used concurrently with the nebulizer few minutes back."

"Nurses there, upon witnessing the sudden change of mood my son was exhibiting, hastily rose to action and started compressing my boy's chest to calm his nerves, having been laid on a bed to subsequently pronounce my son clinical died," the bereaved mother narrated.

She further established that the exact drug used in injecting his son is yet to be communicated to her. Thus call on the Ghana Health Service and all appropriate quarters to come out and explain to the family on what exactly led to her son's swift death.

The family, however, is calling for justice for their departed member, as they bewail the fact that the nurse in question still moves around freely without any police invite since the time the incident was reported.

The body of the deceased has since been deposited at the University of Cape Coast Hospital Morgue with the case officially  reported to the Kotokuraba Police Command.
