“We opted for the state hospital, Lantoro because of the urgency and he was admitted at the emergency ward where he was administered oxygen till today (Friday).

 

“I got back to the hospital this morning and I met him breathing too fast and heavy. I was at where I went to get him some prescribed medications when he passed on,” Olayemi said.
