A Nigerian woman has lost her baby
she gave birth to after being gang-raped in Ghana.
A Facebook user, Bright Sylvanus
claims the woman from Imo State was stranded in a hospital in Ghana because she
couldn't pay her hospital bills after her child died in the hospital two weeks
after being born via C-section.
He claimed that the woman moved to
Ghana in search of a job. While there, she was allegedly gang-raped and it
resulted in a pregnancy. While pregnant, she was allegedly gang-raped again.
She gave birth on May 31 via
ceserean section and the baby died on June 15. The woman was allegedly stranded
in Ridge hospital, Accra, because she could not afford to pay the hospital
bills. She also couldn't bury her dead child because of the money she owed the
hospital.
Bright said he took pity on the
woman when he heard about her situation and he went to the hospital to clear
her bills.
Sharing photos of the woman and her
baby, Bright wrote:
We live in a very wicked world. so
yesterday someone sent me a voice note concerning this lady in Ghana she’s from
imo state..she came to Ghana to look for a job so she can feed home.. and
some group of Ghana boys raped her and got her pregnant even when she was
pregnant another set of people raped her again then someone took her to the
hospital and left her there for more than three weeks. No friend no
family so on the 31st of last month she had to deliver through
operation and the baby died On the 15th of this month. when I got this picture
and voice note guys, I left everything I was doing I couldn’t even take my bath
when I got to the hospital @ridge hospital Accra she was crying that they
said she can’t bury her baby till she pay 1200 cidis thats ( 98k) naira
