A Nigerian woman named Ann Udoh has urged individuals to get vaccinated against Tetanus following the untimely death of her cousin, Ofon, from a Tetanus infection.
This appeal was made on Thursday, February 19, 2026, after her cousin, who was only 33 years old, tragically succumbed to the disease.
Ofon served as a senior accounting officer with a state government and was the only child of a widow.
As per Udoh, Ofon's late father had left behind considerable assets for her.
She expressed her grief by stating, "This is my cousin Ofon. She d!ed just like that, a victim of Tetanus at the age of 33."
Ofon was noted to be a senior accounting officer, having completed her BSc at Madonna University and pursued additional qualifications like MSc and ICAN.
"An only child to a sick retired widow. Many inheritance was left to her by her late father as the only child," she reflected on her cousin's loss.
"Yet she closed her eyes forever. I have not witnessed that much grief, sorrow, and anguish like during her funeral. It looked like a scene from a Nollywood horror movie. Rest in peace, Ofon."
Udoh concluded her message with a reminder for others: "Get vaccinated for Tetanus today."
