Ere, an obstetrician-gynecologist, OBGYN, gave birth at the Niger Delta University Teaching Hospital (NDUTH) in Okolobiri, Yenagoa.
Her brother, Meshack Sintei, who confirmed the sad news in a Facebook post on Wednesday, April 15, said she suffered complications shortly after delivery and was rushed to the Federal Medical Centre, Yenagoa, where a team of doctors, experts and specialists battled to save her life.
Sadly, she passed away in the early hours of Tuesday, April 14, 2026.
“After she successfully gave birth to Triplet at the Niger Delta University Teaching Hospital (NDUTH) in Okolobiri, Yenagoa LGA Bayelsa State, complications arises that eventually forced us to rush her to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) in FMC Yenagoa,” he wrote.
“It was at the ICU in FMC that she eventually gave up the ghöst. My beloved sister, Dr. Ere Siana Sintei Ogbachi d!ed at exactly 2:45am on April 14th 2026.
“We watched her struggling to live, we watched her gasping for birth, we watched at how the team of doctors and other experts and specialists in FMC kept trying their best to revive her, we watched her fighting hard her to survive, and then all of a sudden; the Sp02machine (pulse oximeter) in the ICU began reading/measuring downwards from 70 to 50 and then to 0.
“It was at this point tears started rolling down my eyes 😢 and I knew the inevitable has come. It was a painful experience and more painful for her.
“I want her family and friends to know that she was a fighter to the end. Indeed a generation has been lost and the Sintei Family mourns. It is well. We thank our families, friends, loved ones and well wishers who have reached out and continued to reach out to us.
