According to her, the hospital authorities decided to deposit her body at the morgue, four days after her death, without informing her family.
“My daughter wasn’t sick; she only went to the hospital for a medical checkup last week Saturday evening. Stacy had promised to see me on Monday, unfortunately, I never heard from her, so I kept calling her phone.

“In fact, I became very worried when all her calls went unanswered until on Wednesday when a nurse answered the phone and told me she was in a critical condition. I was forced to rush to the hospital, only for me to be informed that my daughter had come to the hospital for a checkup and while she was receiving treatment, she passed on”, she said.
She accused the owner of the Obengfo Hospital of having a hand in the death of her daughter, adding that her daughter was not given proper treatment.

The doctor and a cleaner, she said, were consequently arrested last Thursday and are helping the police in their investigations at the Criminal Investigation Department of the Ghana Police Service (CID).
The Obengfo Hospital has since been closed down.
Anas should not be crucified for exposing the rot in the system but he should be lauded and encouraged to expose more of the greedy bastards wrecking the nation. Loud mouthed people calling for the head of Anas have something to hide hence, the shameless attack on Ana’s and investigative journalism in the country. Ana’s more fire!
