“We opted for the state hospital, Lantoro because of the urgency and he was admitted to the emergency ward where he was placed on oxygen till Friday.

“I got back to the hospital this morning and I saw him breathing too fast and heavy. I was where I went to get him some prescribed medication when he passed on,” Oduntan explained.
