The de@ths of nine-month-old identical twins, Testimony and Timothy Alozie, have prompted official investigations into routine immunisation practices in Lagos State, following widespread public outrage ignited by their father’s posts on social media.
Rather than centring solely on the medical process, the case has unfolded as a test of public confidence in primary healthcare delivery and government response to vaccine-related fears.
The Lagos State government has now ordered a postmortem examination to determine the cause of de@th, as investigations by both the police and state health authorities continue.
The incident gained widespread attention after the twins’ father, Samuel Alozie, popularly known as Promise Samuel on TikTok, posted videos showing the lifeless bodies of his children in separate body bags.
