A 19 Year old Kemisola Adegbuyi who is being held at the General Hospital Ikere Ekiti is calling on well meaning Nigerians especially in Ekiti to help her offset her medical bills totalling 175, 000.

The Teenager who was delivered of twins on 27th of November, 2023 was unable to offset her medical bills due to financial issues and has since being held hostage since November.

The young secondary school leaver told Treasure Newspaper that the man who put her in the family way by name Idowu Owoeye, who also hails from Ikere Ekiti absconded immediately he heard she gave birth to twins and since then, he has refused to show up.

Miss Kemisola said her mother who has tried all she could to pay the bills but could no longer pay the remaining because she was also financially incapacitated.

“Idowu Owoeye who got me in the family way ran away since he learnt I gave birth to twins. All efforts to reach him proved abortive and even his family abandoned me too. It has only been my mother who has been running up and down to get me out of here but she has exhausted all her savings and all she could borrow”.

“I want to appeal to well meaning Nigerians to help me get out of here”, the visibly tired Teenager concluded.

Kemisola who gave birth through Caesarian maintained that, if not for the operation, maybe she would not have been held hostage since the bills won’t be up to that amount.
