Since 80% of the medical materials needed had to be bought from outside the hospital, the only other available recipient of the money was Ada's mother.

However, the said woman appeared to have chosen the money over the life of her daughter as she fled, abandoning her daughter as soon as she was credited.

"Last month we had a case of a 3yr old girl with a brain tumour who needed N3m for surgery. A donor insisted on paying the money to the account of the mother, stating that he’s not comfortable with NGOs. We initially wanted him to pay directly to the hospital, but that was not possible because 80% of the medical materials needed for the surgery has to be bought outside the hospital. Eventually, the donor credited the mother's account, and the mother absconded with the N3m. Sadly, the child died this morning. Rest In Peace Ada."
