A Nigerian woman was reportedly stranded in a hospital in Ghana she allegedly lost her newborn baby conceived from gang-rape incident in the country.
A Facebook user identified as Bright Sylvanus claimed the woman, who had moved to Ghana in search of a job, was allegedly gang-raped and it resulted in a pregnancy.
While 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.
The woman finally gave birth on May 31, 2020, via ceserean section, but the baby died on June 15th at the Ridge hospital in Accra.
Since then, the woman was allegedly stranded in the hospital because she could not afford to pay the bills. She also couldn’t bury her dead child because of the money she owed the hospital.
Upon hearing a voice note about the situation, Bright said he took pity on the woman and rushed to the hospital to clear her bills. He wrote:
