DSS seals clinic in Jos community over alleged quackery and death of patient

The Department of State Security (DSS), has sealed off AL-Ihsan clinic in Unguwan Rogo community in Jos North local Government Area of Plateau State. 

The secret police took the action on Sunday, May 5, 2024, due to allegation of quackery and reported death of a patient who received treatment at the clinic.

It was gathered that a woman died in the clinic last week after a surgery supposedly performed by one Mr. Lukuma Abdul. 

The incident sparked reactions, with many attributing the death to the surgery, raising concern about his medical specialty.

However, Abdul denied the accusation, stating that the surgery did not lead to her death.

According to reports, the action by the DSS responded to a complaint filed by some members of the community to state ministry of health over alleged quackery at the clinic.
