karidad: How many doctors attended to this said Patrick Sawyer of a devil? Is it because he is a foreigner? because I bet an ordinary Nigerian ll nt receive dis kinda treatment frm our medical practitioners. RIP to d decreased.

inteli:

When was this

Can you provide the source of this info?

ignis:
Ever heard of private hospitals?

Henrypraise: Now des ar d kind of pple dat deserve national awards, not politicians.

Lemme use dis medium to also challenge all dos hungry men/ murderers parading demsefs as medical doctors, embarkin on strikes, to take example from dis Dr, life isn't always abt money n dats were Nigerians have scores it wrong, everybody is fightin for dia pocket/ money, no body is even fighting for glory talkless of fighting for humanity.

D fed govt shud tap into dis tragedy n encourage nigerians to be patriotic.

Tank u.

Asked whether doctors go on strike in Germany, one of our German collaborators in the Institute of Lassa Fever Research and Control, ISTH, Irrua answered. "Oh no. When doctors have issues government as a matter of priority resolves them urgently. Where there is a delay, other citizens embark on protests and if necessary strike while the doctors remain in the hospitals to take care of sick citizens and the emergencies that may result from the protest or the strike action embarked upon by the good citizens". What do we have in Nigeria? In spite of the fact that most strikes by doctors are in their interest with a view to improving healthcare delivery, they ridicule, criticize and insult the doctors. They are more comfortable with business as usual than positive change. Really, "was there ever a country" at anytime?

candy:
Do you think being a medical doctor is synonymous with committing suicide? If this doctor, of blessed memory, had known Mr Slayer had ebola, she prolly would not have touched him without an hamzat suit.

I know you will come here and say 'RIP' if there is a news report that says '1000' doctors died while saving 100 lives. Why would any doctor deliberately die and leave his/her family behind to suffer in Nigeria?
I challenge you to "take example" from this doctor and offer yourself as a volunteer caregiver at the isolation unit and shame those "hungry men/ murderers parading demsefs as medical doctors, embarkin on strikes". WHO/Doctors without borders will train you. Please be patriotic and stop insulting doctors, they are flesh, bone and blood like you.

eh eh ehhhh!...a timely release of ZMAPP by America? you want to abuse obama for what? well, you must be a toddler because these comments could not have emanated from a matured mind.Let me spare you for now.

DANGOTEONE: RIP.

*Call for compensations for the family of those medical personnel who died in active service at First Consultants
Hospital should be directed at the management of First Consultants
Hospital and NOT THE GOVERNMENT;
*To be continued.

I'm sure you're a stark illiterate. It is not by compulsion a doctor must save lives. A doctor didn't come to earth with the sole responsibility of treating you. You pay and get treated or your government pays to subsidize what you pay. You can't force anybody to treat you. They didn't inflict you with the illness or hit you with a vehicle so how are they murderers?

hardbody:

Ok. So they went on strike from government hospitals so they can improve on the number of people that will have no choice than to access the private hospitals? In that process, the poor and indigent are further denied of an otherwise accessible medical care. I see the reasoning. That Oath they take is actually 'Hypocritical' especially in the Nigerian context.

As for the lady that has been reported dead, i have had the benefit of additional information as to why she died. I salute her courage and the sacrifice she made to save 170 million Nigerians who would all or mostly have been consumed by the scourge if the index carrier had been allowed to leave or escape from the hospital.

I understand she practically held the man down physically (with apparent knowledge of the consequences of her action and also the effects of any inaction at that point in time). May God remember her for good and may this silly country of ours immortalize her.

By the way, IGNIS, when next you disrespect me by asking me question like a KG pupil........

2sExy1: it is true. The topic made front page. In fact she was the first victim to be discharge... According to the news that floated the air.

Pathetic!

SolomonAdeola: So Sad! Rest on Doc.

Personally, I tink our health system nids a full scale overhaul. More efforts shld b committed to Research. And Health workers strike actions shld b addressed. Its a National shame if ppl in d Security Forces, Health Sector and Education Sector held in high esteems are embarking on frequent strike actions....dats a No-No to transformation and progress.

Rest on Hero!

Oduduwaboy:
you are a joke ! i bet its people like you that abuse doctors...and you dont know anything about how the doctor-
work is done.
Okay.Listen and learn. A house officer will have the first contact with the patient, then the registrar, followed by the senior registrar and the the consultant. They could all have seen him at the same time, however. So we have 4 doctors seeing a patient in any hospital that provides tertiary care.
Enough said.
And to think you already have 50 likes only shows the level of degradation of 'national' intelligence quotient in this messed up country!

einsteino:


Although i never met her and unfortunately am not an elected officer and therefore do not really have the mandate to represent anyone... Nonetheless i want to say as a nigerian i am sorry for your loss and on behalf of every ordinary Nigerian like me who would have died if not for her patriotism, i pray God almighty keeps her in His house and grants you the family the fortitude to bear the loss. Pls accept our condolences, sadly R.I.P is what ends matters like this in the crazy joke we call Nigeria.

vivaciouzz: RIP Doc..heard she is a descendant of Herbert Macaulay.

Jide-Salu.com:
- The First Consultant Hospital was where the late Patrick Sawyer, the Liberian-American, was diagnosed with the deadly Ebola disease. Mr. Okubadejo said his colleague (Stella Adadevoh) was trying to save Patrick Sawyer’s life and does not deserve to die. He has appealed to the U.S. government to urgently send whatever medication in its possession on Ebola virus to Nigeria.

Dr Ameyo Adadevoh held fort for Nigerians. She refused to allow Mr Sawyer leave First Consultants Hospital even when the Liberian ambassador pressured her to release him. Imagine what would have happened if she had let him go. Ebola virus would have been much more widespread than what we are dealing with now. She is now fighting for her life because of her contact with Patrick Sawyer.

HERBERT-MACAULAY-COVER

Olayinka Herbert Samuel Heelas Badmus Macaulay (November 14, 1864 – May 7, 1946) was a Nigerian nationalist, politician, engineer, journalist, and musician and considered by many Nigerians as the founder of Nigerian nationalism. (source – wikipedia)

Gratitude goes to a reader (Ken) of this blog who pointed out this piece of information.

Dr. Ameyo Stella Olubunmi Adadevoh is the first grandchild of Mrs Sarah Idowu Abigail Adadevoh nee Macaulay, so she is a great granddaughter of Herbert Macaulay.

Her Father was Prof. Babatunde Kwaku Adadevoh who was a grandson of the grand old man of Nigerian anti colonial politics who was also a fine physician.

She is not to be confused with her Aunt Mrs. Stella Ameyo Folashade Marinho nee Adadevoh.

Ameyo is an excellent and dedicated physician whom her family, patients and everyone who has ever had any interaction with her do not want to lose. They, as well as most Nigerians are praying round the clock for her recovery.
