A man simply identified as Emma, has been allegedly abandoned by friends and family after a partial stroke.
It was learnt that Emma worked with Steel Iron Company in Ikorudu, Lagos State, before he became ill with partial stroke.
The Quest Times gathered that his family gave up on him and left him to die, at Ile-OBA junction, Ogijo Ikorodu, for the past two weeks, without food and water.
“They carried him and dumped him on the road side. The community has to guide him with tyres so vehicles coming at night won’t mistakenly kill him,” a source confirmed.
Harrison Gwamnishu, a human rights activist with tag #SaveEmmanuel, said a friend, Mr. Emenike, mobilized his friends and moved Emmanuel to the hospital.
“If you are nearby Ikorodu and wish to visit Emmanuel at the hospital, he’s admitted at Real Hope Hospital Ita-Oluwa,” he added.
