Two Nigerian women, Ajima Ogbole-Spittael and Susan Ogbole, have raised alarm over the medical injustice they suffered at the hands of Belgian doctors, which led to the loss of cervix and paralysis for the women.
Mrs Ogbole-Spittael is married to a Belgian and based in Belgium, while her sister-in-law, Mrs Ogbole, travelled to Belgium for surrogacy.
Narrating their ordeal via a zoom meeting on Tuesday, Mrs Ogbole-Spittael, 35, said her experience started in 2017 when she and her husband were trying to conceive and she was diagnosed with multiple fibroids at Az Sint-Jan Bruges, Belgium.
In a bid to remove the fibroids, the doctor ,who carried out the surgery, erroneously amputated her cervix, making her incapable of carrying a pregnancy.
