Their lack of care led to Stella Obasanjo’s liver being badly slashed, 24 hours later she became ill but the surgeon ignored his cell phone when called for help, and then took a further 4 hours to attend to his patient.He then placed her in the back of his own vehicle to rush her to hospital in Marbella where she died within an hour of arrival.
