Ahmed Mayowa Shukurat's family denounces reports that the efforts to save her is a scam. Pulse exclusively reports developing stories.
Today, July 28, 2016, there were reports that the #SaveMayowa which was a campaign to raise funds for Ahmed Mayowa Shukurat who has stage IV ovarian cancer was a scam by her family members to take money from innocent Nigerians.
According
to these unconfirmed reports doctors in LUTH had already told Ahmed
Mayowa Shukurat's family that her case was advanced and it was too late
for her to be saved but the family still went ahead to raise funds by
deceiving Nigerians that her cancer was curable.

Also
Toyin Aimakhu who spearheaded the movement to save Ahmed Mayowa
Shukurat's life yesterday took to her Instagram page to say that the
#SaveMayowa campaign was fake and Nigerians should stop donating.
"Please

Toyin
Aimakhu took a step further by taking members of the Nigerian police
force to LUTH to arrest Ahmed Mayowa Shukurat's brothers. You can see
her in LUTH today in the videos below;
Pulse went to LUTH to investigate if the accusations were true. Speaking to Ahmed Mayowa Shukurat's sister Ahmed Mariam at LUTH she told Pulse that Toyin Aimakhu's accusations are untrue and unfounded.
"I
don't know why Toyin Aimakhu and Linda Ikeji are saying we are
scamming Nigerians. It's a lie! No doctor ever told us my sis cannot
survive this they just told us to do something and take her out of the
country. Nigerians we did not scam u ooo it's a lie oo. Linda Ikeji has
never been in this story and now she's just cooking up everything to
just...
"Right now my sis is in d room
crying. I don't know what Linda wants from us. It is true. she has
ovarian cancer. We sent the medical report we posted everything on line.
At least we posted everything online.

"No doctor ever told us it's stage four. It's not until two weeks ago they told us she has ovarian cancer. So even if we know she's going to die we have to do something. Nobody even asked her to do the video she did it herself she's tired.. I don't know where Linda cooked d story" she told Pulse exclusively.
