Ulonna Inyama, the Registrar of Wigwe University, has passed away in an Abuja hospital following complications from a wrong blood transfusion.
A family source disclosed that Inyama suffered a fatal reaction after receiving the incorrect blood type during treatment for blood loss due to fibroid complications. The source explained, “We were told that a wrong blood transfusion led to her death after losing blood due to fibroid complications. She was later referred to another hospital where she passed on due to a worsening condition from the complications.”
The family is calling for an investigation into the circumstances of her death to ensure accountability and to prevent similar incidents in the future.
Before her tenure at Wigwe University, Inyama served as the chief personnel officer and head of strategic communications/special duties in the office of the executive secretary at the National Universities Commission (NUC).
Inyama’s death follows the recent tragic demise of Wigwe University’s founder, Herbert Wigwe, who perished in a helicopter crash in the USA along with his wife and son.
