Adebola Abiodun, a young boy, had been admitted to LASUTH, where he allegedly lost small parts of his intestines, according to his mother. The hospital has denied touching any of the boy’s intestines while they performed corrective surgery on him. The hospital management claimed that the boy had previously been operated on at a private hospital before being brought to LASUTH.

The Governor of Lagos State, therefore, vowed to take care of all matters regarding the young boy’s medical care, promising that he would task all of LASUTH’s management to do right by the boy and heal him so that he can return to school once again after being admitted in the hospital for over a month.

“I’m here, and I have seen your doctors, and we are going to do everything to make sure you get well, but I want you to be strong. It’s going to be difficult; we are going to do everything we can to get your strength, to give you back your health and get you back to school,” the Governor said.

In his soothing and confident voice, the Lagos State Governor spoke with the boy and exchanged knuckles with him as a sign of pleasant greetings amongst men. The 13-year-old boy, Adebola Abiodun, was all smiles to see the governor of Lagos present and promising to assist him in getting back his health.
