The coroner overseeing her inquest, on Thursday, indicted doctors of Premier hospital for medical negligence.

A coroner’s inquest has indicted doctors of a Lagos-based hospital for medical negligence in the death of a mother of two, Peju Ugboma.

The coroner overseeing her inquest, on Thursday, indicted doctors of Premier Hospital for medical negligence. She died on the premises of Evercare Hospital, where she was referred to from Premier hospital. Doctors at Evercare Hospital alleged that Ugboma had no pulse on arrival after trying to resuscitate her for over an hour.

However, during the inquest on Thursday, Magistrate Mukiala Fadeyi, said that the “only logical” insight to “her death is a result of the combination of lack of due diligence of the doctors.”
