Breaking: Popular cosmetic surgeon sentenced after failed plastic surgery
Popular cosmetic surgeon, Dr. Anuoluwapo Adepoju, the founder of MedContour Services Ltd., has been convicted.
She was convicted by the Federal High Court in Lagos on Friday for her role in a botched plastic surgery that resulted to the death of Nneka Onwuzuligbo in 2020.
Former Director-General of the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission, Babatunde Irukera, announced the conviction via Twitter, expressing pride in prosecuting the case.
He emphasized the importance of accountability and the justice system’s role in societal growth.
In his tweet, Irukera, tweeting as #TundeIrukera, wrote, “Today is a day of pride for me that I personally prosecuted Anu Adepoju and her medical practice. Though I’ve left, the case has ended in a conviction strengthening the accountability framework for all in society, professionals or otherwise. This is how society should work and grow.
“Dr. Anu Adepoju and her medical practice convicted in all 5 counts charged by FCCPC. The wheel of justice may grind slowly, but we must see it through. What we need are enforced with audacity and the will to prosecute competently and diligently. Good day for consumers of professional services.”
