A medical doctor in Warri, Delta State, Owhojedo Aghogho Henry, has said that late Sylvester Oromoni Jnr, the deceased pupil of Dowen College, Lagos was diagnosed with enlarged liver before his d3ath.

Owhojedo made this known while testifying before the coroner’s inquest into Oromoni’s death at the Epe Magistrate Court, Lagos. He said the parents of the deceased informed him that the deceased had sustained injuries from playing football, but when a test was conducted on him, no evidence of fracture or dislocation was found.

He said in his statement of oath “I, Dr Owhojedo Aghogho Henry, Male, Christian, Nigeria Citizen hereby make an oath and state as follows:

That I am the Medical Director of Vicah Clinic/Hospital at No. 6, Maduku Street Warri, Delta State.

I graduated from the College of Health Sciences, University of Port Harcourt, Rivers State. I also have a master’s degree in Public Health in Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Osun State

On 26/11/2021, the father of the deceased called and informed me that the late Sylvester Oromoni Jnr. was sick and had just been brought back from Lagos.

The deceased’s father informed me that Dowen College told them that the sickness of the boy was a result of injuries he sustained on his leg while playing football in the school.

The father, therefore, asked me if I had a vacant private ward to enable them to attend to him comfortably as parents as he could not attend to himself without the support of another person.

I replied the father that there was no vacant private ward hence he became our outdoor patient.

On that same 26/11/2021 since the boy’s body temperature was very high as it read 38.7oc and he was in pain, I took blood samples and did a test for full blood count, random blood sugar and typhoid fever.

That the result showed that he had malaria fever and we treated him for malaria fever from 26/11/2021 to 28/11/2021 with a nurse in attendance. The clinical notes in respect of the treatment Sylvester Oromoni Jnr. are available.”
