A woman with maggots dropping continuously from her private parts has left residents of Olakula area of Idiroko in Ipokia Local Government Area of Ogun State on Wednesday shocked, The Nation reports.
Residents trooped out to see the woman, identified as Iya Toheeb, who sat in a car with the assistance of family members and sympathisers as she was thought to be a victim of money-making ritual after her condition allegedly defied orthodox medication.
The woman was also brought to one of the men she was associated with, a carpenter in the community. Of the reason for bringing the afflicted woman to the man, a source at the scene who asked not to be named, said:
“The woman was brought to the carpenter who was her former husband. Her family members believed that the man may be responsible for her worsening condition that defied treatment in hospital where she was admitted for months. Doctors were said to have advised her relatives to seek alternative medicine to her ill-health because it had gone beyond the purview of orthodox medicine.’’
