Nurse Remanded In Prison For Administering Overdose On Senator Isiaka Adeleke by Aminat508(f): 8:13am On Jun 11, 2018
@AMILOADED


Osun State High Court, sitting in Ede, has remanded in prison Mr. Alfred Aderibigbe, the nurse who treated Senator Isiaka Adeleke before his death.


The nurse was indicted by the coroner inquest led by Magistrate Olusegun Ayilara, for allegedly administering overdose drugs on the late Senator.


He was arraigned on Friday, June 8, 2018, and he pleaded not guilty to the murder charge preferred against him.



Magistrate Ayilara-led coroner inquest had recommended the Nurse for prosecution, having established that he administered a drug overdose on the late Senator, thus causing his death.



Aderibigbe, during evidence before the coroner, said the drugs he gave the late Senator were those given to him by Adeleke and not in overdose.



But, the Chief Medical Director of Ladoke Akintola University Teaching Hospital, Osogbo, Prof. Akeem Lasisi, said Adeleke died of drug overdose.



The Consultant Pathologist, who carried out the autopsy on Adeleke’s corpse, Dr Taiwo Sholaja, also told the coroner that  he died of drug overdose. 



Counsel to the accused, Mr. Soji Oyetayo, informed the court that there was application for bail he has filed and submitted to the Court.



But, the Acting Solicitor General and Permanent Secretary for the state,  Mr. Dapo Adeniji, who led the legal team for Ministry of Justice however opposed the bail application.



Adeniji argued that the accused was just arraigned for the first time in the Court and bail application was filed before the the arraignment. He said that bail application was premature because the accused was not in custody when the bail application was filed.




Justice Ayo Oyebiyi however ordered that the accused should be remanded at the Ilesha prison till 29th June, 2018 when the case will come up for hearing.

Is the adeleke dead? I thought he is bred father

No, this is his brother.

Senator Isiaka Adeleke was a senator until his death around April, 2017. His brother, Senator Nurudeen Adeleke took over his seat.

Is it because he was a big man that is why they brought the case up. Many people have died due to doctors and nurses negligence and mistakes. This also happened to my personal person. Drug overdose by doctor prescription. Half baked doctors everywhere.

Speaking of his inefficiency he would be among those disillusioned health workers clamoring for parity with medical doctors.

Where were the doctors?

That's the consequence of cheap labor.

Some lazy youths did not read the piece that is why they are using the pronoun "she/her" for the male nurse.

Reading does not kill. And if you must comment, at least, try and read first. It is better not to comment if you know you have not read the piece.

It has to do with money. It works the same way in the West as well. Legal battles over medical negligence require lots of resources, time and expertise so the legal bills for such cases are ridiculously expensive.

Negligence on the part of the Nurse
Re: Nurse Remanded In Prison For Administering Overdose On Senator Isiaka Adeleke by Nobody: 9:23am On Jun 11, 2018
Nurses and other healthcare professionals should be held to very high standards because they control people's lives. However, there's no scientific evidence that shows that the drug administered by this nurse was done with malicious intent.

More so, it's not been proven that it is the medication that killed this dying man other than the word of another incompetent doctor who's probably just blaming this poor nurse because the victim was a senator. Besides, nurses carry-out or administer what Doctors prescribe. Nurses don't determine dosage, it is the Doctors that do and that is where the responsibility lies.

Consequently, this nurse should be released from prison because there is no criminal offence on his part. He was only giving medications prescribed by the Doctor in Charge.

That said, if the family of the senator see cause to seek restitution for wrongful death, they can sue the hospital that employed the nurse for wrongful death and their complaints to the courts may range from failure of management, improper training or supervision, to just about any reason that could have led to the death of the victim.

In that case, the family of this senator should really be targeting the insurance company of the hospital, not the nurse (except the nurse has insurance) as the insurance company, on behalf of the hospital or clinic, has ability to pay for the loss.

Let us remember that when Obasanjo's wife, Stella Obasanjo, died on the table of surgery in Spain, the Police or some Judge in Spain did not lockup or jail the Doctor in question without proof of wrongdoing. Again, jailing this nurse is punishment for a crime that has not been proven to haven occurred and as such, it is unjust!
