The Chief Medical Director of Ekiti State Specialist Hospital, Ikere-Ekiti, Dr. Olubiyi Olaolu Abidemi, has allegedly assaulted his wife severely following a domestic dispute at their residence on St. David Hospital Compound in Ifaki-Ekiti on Thursday, September 14, 2023.
According to Vanguard’s report, the Consultant Family Physician became infuriated when his wife refused to care for his pregnant mistress, who is also his staff, as he had instructed.
A relative informed the publication that he purportedly made threats to harm her and forcefully grabbed her neck in an attempt to strangle her at their home.
Dr. (Mrs.) Olubiyi Adenike, a lecturer at Ekiti State University, Ado-Ekiti, reportedly sustained severe injuries to her neck and was subsequently admitted to the Accident and Emergency Unit of Ekiti State University Teaching Hospital, Ado-Ekiti.
It was further disclosed that Dr. Abidemi, the CMD, declined to comment when approached by the press, maintaining that his wife was feigning illness despite receiving medical attention at the hospital.
