A Nigerian woman from Osun state, Folakemi, has died few months after she refused free surgery from a non-governmental organization (NGO) to remove her goiter and asked for N300k cash instead.
The woman hailing from Ede, identified as Folakemi, suffered from goiter went viral last year after she sought for medical help but when a team of doctors offered her free medical services, she opted out and asked for the money raised on her behalf.
Folakemi, who took to the streets to be for alms daily, refused the surgery and requested for N300k cash instead.
According to the NGO which raised the money for Mrs Folakemi, she went back to her village in Osun state, hoping the state government would help with the treatment cost but nothing came from that end.
The NGO boss said Folakemi later met a doctor in Osun state who convinced her to give him the N300,000 so he could operate on her.
Unfortunately, the operation did not go well and Folakemi died in the process. Watch the video below here
