Ondo Prophetess Arrested After Woman and Newborn Die from Childbirth Complications at Church
The Ondo State Police Command has detained Prophetess Folashade Kikiowo Adekola of Christ Engracing Deliverance Ministry in Akure, following the tragic death of 28-year-old Jumoke Adesuwa and her newborn baby during childbirth at the church.
Reports indicate that Adesuwa experienced severe bleeding after giving birth at the prophetess’s church, which led to the baby’s immediate death and ultimately her own.
The incident came to light after Adesuwa’s brother filed a complaint at the Oke-Aro Police Station. Ondo Police spokesperson, Mrs. Funmilayo Odunlami, confirmed that Adekola is currently in custody while investigations continue.
Family sources disclosed that Adesuwa had gone to the church days before her delivery without informing her husband, Ayodele Adesuwa, who had provided funds for her to register at a government hospital.
Unaware of her whereabouts, Ayodele only learned about her delivery after being contacted by someone at the church.
When family members arrived, they found her in critical condition and attempted to rush her to hospitals, but she was turned away from three facilities before passing away in the fourth.
Upon returning to the church for the newborn’s body, they found the remains in a room that, according to family members, was ill-suited for childbirth.
The woman’s remains have been deposited at the mortuary as the investigation into this tragic event continues.
