if all the engineers are doing their work, why are we importing everything.? you will blame govt, power etc but never the engineers. if the lawyers are ok, why do we have cases lingering in court for years...it is the fault of the system right? but when a patient comes to complain about power failure in a hospital, the doctors and the nurses are wicked and must be sued. it is always their fault

Eluwilussit:


Ok o. If you are a medical student, don't worry, a lot of people have been through it. If you are a doctor already, don't worry as well. You are not the only Doctor. It is only in naija that you see people bragging and going by dr, engr, barr, arch this and that.

Before Obama became president, he was a prof at Harvard. I don't remember him campaigning as a prof or being addressed as one. But our VP and APC used that as key in their campaign. Obama was presented to the world simply as senator Obama. His political sobriquet.

Enjoy whatever you are called while you can. Nothing do you o.

i can't quite remember campaigning for any political position. so i don't understand how this your write-up concerns me in any way?

still on still, cry me a river

TheArchangel:
Rip to the dead baby.
May the good Lord console the family.


The journalist that wrote that article should be sued by that hospital. What bullshit!! What a sack of bullcrap!!.
When has oxygen administration got anything to do with electricity?
What the fucck is teething fever? Many Nigerians has been lead to believe that a child must have fever before and during teeth eruption. Our level of illiteracy is at an all time high.
And I didn't see the child lying in a dumpster either. Are they expecting the hospital to keep the dead baby in a hospital where there are other sick patients maybe children too to keep on seeing the dead baby, is it to serve as a reminder that they will soon follow or what Enough of this sensational journalism.

That child was very ill and it took the parents time to take him to the hospital..… a government hospital and a private hospital which ultimately caused his health to deteriorate fast. The latter were so unfortunate that the child died in their care, after all they did all that was humanely possible even scrapping the head to search for one of the most difficult superficial veins available to revive. Our health workers go out of their ways to offer their service but their good intentions are often misconstrued.

Imagine oxygen administration being connected through electricity.....huh ......even the parents, the child and the hospital staff won't survive the explosion.

Just curious... do you work for this hospital??

Your outburst get as e be o, you taking it too far and adding too much emotions..

Just an observation, don't mean to be rude..

Lovely day ahead

Sacluxpaint:
I dont believe in court, I use a mafia mindset to treat this kind of cases. And no its not jungle justice.

texazzpete:


It's also quite daft of you to generalize.

Eluwilussit:


Yet you are bragging and making a noise all over the place? Whatever we are or know doesn't matter if it can't affect the lives of people. Simply put: nobody cares about how much you know, till they know how much you care. Most doctors and nurses don't care about their patients. They are only interested in getting paid. It is called Healthcare for a reason.

If you are one of them, I hope you are part of the few that truly cares. My friend's sister bled to death after an accident in a hospital because she didn't have money to register. That's just one in a thousand cases.

I hope you remember the oath!

point out where I was "bragging & making noise"

Or kindly refrain from disturbing my "mentions"

imsuboi:


See this illiterate/high-school dropout using this opportunity to take a jab at medical personnel

Can you even approach a doctor/nurse & speak to her without cowering in fear & shame at your obvious lack of knowledge?

hyrene46:
This is outrageous, the hospital should be closed down and should serve as lesson to others.

texazzpete:


It's a private Hospital. Don't be silly, what has the Governor got to do with this?

frisky2good:
From the attached pictures, the bin just happens to be where the ramp is. I doubt if the hospital was actually planning to throw their baby's corpse away. I also doubt if you can successfully sue a hospital for power failure but they can try though.

SpencerLewis:

My immortal beloveth Kennygee, our laws are not that strict and our justice system is just ridiculous. But the story doesn't add up. As a doctor, there is no way tha baby on oxygen wd have died b/c light went off. Oxygen cylinders are not connected to electricity unless oxygen concentrators which doesn't give 100% oxygen unlike the ones from the cylinder.
Most likely, a case of misdiagnosis from the 1st hospital they went.
Which one is teething fever kwanu? Lay man language when fever comes around during teething period. Most of the fever are due to poorly treated malaria or due to sepsis or a flu.

kennygee:


But how can they dispose a body like that.

get the real story from the Nation newspaper.
This is quite misleading

The main reason I stayed away from both. Too mean to be good wives. Life means nothing to those idiiots. They don't even know anything. So sad.

AGgal:


You are a bigger idiot for generalising. Intelligent fool.

helpee:
the problem we have in nigeria is that we practically dont have means of administering real parenteral nutrition. yes you can starve a seriously sick patient of food orally. you mean the only thing they diagnosed in republic of benin was HUNGER/STARVATION and he still died the second day. Ngeria is messed up really but it is not everything that is the fault of the doctor.

So sad here in nigeria, most pple dont value human life
