In an emotional video shared to her TikTok account, Asantewaa narrated her alleged suffering at the hands of the nurse, whom she accused of racism for ostensibly refusing to help her despite being in distress.
She said after her delivery, she needed some help from a nurse to get up from her bed, but when she rang for help, her nurse simply stood some distance from her and refused to approach her.
Asantewaa claimed the nurse simply watched her and tried to give her instructions on what to do, rather than physically helping her.
She said the nurse kept applying sanitiser to her hands. The TikToker claimed that the nurse in question did not want to come into contact with her skin.
