Residents of Oremeji in Aradagun near Badagry, Lagos State, were on Sunday shocked when a man they had presumed dead regained consciousness after three days in the mortuary.
The man identified as Mr Agosu, died at a hospital of an undisclosed illness last Friday and his remains were deposited at the morgue of the Badagry General Hospital.
The news of his regaining consciousness broke out on Sunday evening as members of his Mountain of Fire and Miracle (MFM) Church were preparing tents for his wake, when a worker at the morgue heard that a dead man was coughing from inside the morgue and contacted the hospital management who ordered a doctor to test the man.
Following the test, the man was said to be breathing. The hospital management directed that he should be admitted for treatment.
Dr Tunji Olabuntu, Deputy Medical Director, Badagry General Hospital, confirmed the incident.
He said: “It is true that the man regained consciousness after three days in the mortuary. But he was not originally admitted in our hospital.”
Olabuntu said the body of the man was brought to the hospital morgue from outside, adding that he was not a patient of the hospital.
Strange but true!
