Report has it that the Federal Government and the family of the late Itunu Babalola, the Nigerian lady who died in Côte d’Ivoire after she was wrongly jailed have rejected the autopsy on the cause of her death.

This was made known on Tuesday in a meeting at NIDCOM by Mrs Abike Dabiri-Erewa, Chairman, Nigerians in Diaspora Commission (NiDCOM) and the father of the deceased, Mr Emmanuel Babalola.

Speaking, Dabiri-Erewa, who expressed NiDCOM deepest condolences to Babalola’s family, said that though she (Dabiri-Erewa) was not a doctor, the autopsy left so many questions unanswered.

She said that the Sepsis Complicated by Acute Respiratory Distress report is not acceptable even to her without being a doctor and she does not think that should be acceptable.

It will be recalled that 24-year-old Itunu from Oyo State reportedly died on Nov. 14.

Itunu reportedly got entangled in a legal battle when she reported to the police that her house in Bondoukou, Cote d’Ivoire had been burgled.

She was said to have been charged to court and the prosecutor, in collaboration with the police, allegedly compromised the case and accused her of human trafficking.

She was convicted and sentenced to 20 years in prison which was later reduced to 10 years, but she died two years into her jail term.
