@Bambam;”It has been going on for years now. These doctors manipulate and instill fear in them so they can undergo CS without any reasonable medical reason, because of the money they will make”

@Creativehoms….:”This has been going on for years I don’t know why it doesn’t get the attention it needed ,almost every pregnancy in Nigeria has been exploited through c-section just to make more money”

@Dayormoore:”Take am play first 😹💔 most of them make women go through that just because of the money they will get from the CS”

@Kemmy:”But I didn’t expect that from a government hospital… I was thinking it was only private hospitals that does those things”
