Ibrahim Ayodeji Balogun is actually very spiritual. If you pay attention, you’ll notice the people he genuinely likes and the ones he instinctively keeps at arm’s length. Nothing about him is random. No one born of a woman can cancel him, many have tried.Ìkú ló bá ní bẹ̀.

An 18-year-old girl was accused of sleeping around with men and contracting HIV in the process. Her family, the community, and everyone around her disowned her.
In addition to her illness, she was forced to grapple with the stigmatization.
When she presented to a PHC on account of her worsening symptoms—progressive weight loss, lack of appetite, and stomach swelling—routine investigations were conducted.
The preliminary investigations revealed shocking findings:
1. Retroviral screening came out non-reactive, meaning she does not have HIV.
2. Serum Pregnancy Test came out negative, meaning she is not pregnant.
3. Random Blood Sugar came out high, meaning she is likely to have diabetes.
Follow-up Fasting Blood Tests (FBS) showed her sugar level to be 30 mmol.
From the clinical findings and the results of available investigations, the girl is most likely suffering from Type 1 Diabetes—a type of diabetes that primarily affects adolescents and young children.
When the parents were invited to come to the PHC facility to be informed about the condition of their daughter, the father sent someone else. He said he was done with her since she had brought shame and disgrace to his family. The mother was said to have been crying ever since the father sent the girl away.
We eventually found a way to reach the father and explain everything to him. We showed him all the evidence that his daughter was not the wayward child he had been made to believe. Lo and behold, the person who started the rumor of the girl sleeping with men and getting pregnant as a result was a close family member.
They believed what the person said simply because they saw her stomach getting swollen, her weight decreasing, and episodes of vomiting here and there. No one thought of taking her to a health facility for a checkup. They gave her a diagnosis and judged her harshly.
Now, the girl needs a specialist review. She will benefit from insulin, which is an expensive medication. The family cannot afford it.
We reached out to some local NGOs, but they only deal with young children—she did not meet their criteria. We reached out to the councilor of the ward she hails from; he promised to escalate her predicament to the right channels. But she does not have the luxury of time.
The girl needs help—a lot of it. She also needs support. Though the family has now embraced her once again, she will live with the unfortunate pain of that accusation, in addition to battling her physical health.
Once again, I am reminded that it is not healthcare when the people are so poor they cannot afford it.
Thank you.
