Due to the baffling disappearance of a baby's placenta, Ondo State police have detained a nurse, health assistant, and security guard at the Comprehensive Health Centre in Emure-IIe, Owo Local Government Area.
Ijanusi, the baby's father, told the reporters that he was worried because the doctors who performed the delivery did not give him or her the placenta, as is customary. In addition, Mrs. Funmilayo Ijanusi, the baby's paternal grandmother, stated that the hospital's report that a dog entered the facility and stole the placenta was unacceptable. She stated that the health center staff had made an effort to persuade the family to let go of the situation by offering to discharge the baby's mother without collecting any money.
The grandmother said below:
“The importance of the placenta to the family according to some community elders is enormous. And the placenta tells more about the child’s glory hence dangerous to be in the wrong hands.Though the joy over the new born is tainted with sadness, the family are clinging unto hope that spirited Nigerians and government to the missing placenta and serve justice on those involved.”
