Jehovah’s Witness Parent Refuses Blood Transfusion For Ailing Child Because Of His Church’s Doctrine [Video]

A man who attends Jehovah witness has refused blood transfusion for his sick child due to his church’s doctrine.

A Nigerian activist, Harrison Gwamnishu has shared a video of showing a Nigerian father refusing blood transfusion for his ailing daughter, Precious, in Sapele, Delta State.

According to Gwamnishu, he visited the man after learning that his daughter is suffering from Hydrocephalus and might need blood transfusion if a surgery is carried out on her.

During the visit, the man who is a member of Jehovah Witness, said he is not opposed to medical help for his daughter but he will never consent for a blood transfusion to be done on his 1 year and 7 months old daughter.

“We in Jehovah’s witnesses, we don’t take blood. I would not want to transfuse blood into the child. We will not accept blood transfusion. If in the course of surgery they would transfuse blood in the child, we would not want that. I don’t want my baby to die but that is our faith” he said
