Chimela, the victim’s sibling, narrated how his brother died after drinking contaminated tigernut juice, which caused severe purging leading to his death.
In an interview with BBC, Chimela expressed disbelief over his brother’s sudden death. He explained that he had bought the contaminated tigernut juice from an intern at his office on Monday.
Initially, his brother was fine, but when he went back to buy four more bottles on Tuesday, he started vomiting and purging for six hours, which ultimately led to his death.
Chimela recounted, “The event that led to my brother’s death started when he bought tigernut juice from an intern on Monday. He drank it and was okay.

But on Tuesday, he bought four bottles, and that’s when the trouble began. That particular Tuesday, he started purging and vomiting for more than six hours.
Eventually, he collapsed and died. That’s what really killed him.
Around 10 pm, his friend called me and asked if I was Caleb’s brother. I said yes, and he told me to come to LSDPC because my brother had died.
That’s how I learned of his death. It was the tigernut juice that caused my brother’s death. The way it was prepared made cholera get into it. That’s what killed him. People should take clean water seriously; it’s important.”
