There was pandemonium on Tuesday at the Federal Teaching Hospital in Gombe following the alleged removal of a dead woman's eye at the medical facility.

Na’omi further stated that as the family members opened the dead body to see the deceased for the last time, they discovered that her left eye was missing, hence they raised the alarm.

She noted that under normal circumstances, the bathing of corpses at hospital ahead of burial is done in the presence of family members of the deceased person, alleging that in their own case, they were only called to pick the corpse of her mother when she was already bathed and put in a casket at the hospital.

“It was today we arranged the burial, so we decided to bring her corpse back home so that the family would see her for the last time. When they opened the coffin, I discovered that my mum’s left eye was nowhere to be found. That was when I raised the alarm,” she narrated. Commenting on the matter, the deputy chairman of the Medical Advisory Committee of the Hospital, Professor Adamu Bojude, assured that the hospital would investigate the matter, adding that if anyone is found wanting, he or she would be dealt with decisively.

According to him, already, an investigation has been ordered to be conducted by the relevant officials of the hospital, adding that a team comprising the Police, hospital’s representatives and family of the deceased have been mandated to monitor the investigation after which the hospital would make formal pronouncement on the development.
