The operatives of the Lagos State Police Command have arrested a nurse over the alleged death of a 36-year-old woman, identified simply as Mrs Abiola, in the state.

The command’s spokesperson, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, confirmed this in Lagos on Wednesday, August 28, 2024.

Hundeyin disclosed that the nurse was arrested after the Maroko Police Division received a report at about 11:40 a.m. on Tuesday, August 27, from the driver of the deceased, whose name was not mentioned.

He said the driver reported that at about 3:00 a.m. on Monday, his boss, living at Diamond Estate, Sangotedo-Lekki, asked him to convey her to a clinic at Lekki Phase 1 for a BBL injection for buttocks enlargement.
