The Federation of Disability organization says checks it has done indicate that nurses at the facility watched on unperturbed while the deceased bled and vomited to death.

Speaking to Ultimate Fm’s Ivan Heathcote Fumador Kumasi metro president of the Federation attributed Abena’s death to “negligence.”
“It’s very sad that out health workers could do such a thing to a person with hearing impairment,” he said
Meanwhile, the Ghana Health service has sent a fact-finding team to the Manhyia Government hospital over the death Abena.
