Nigerian Nurse's Licence Withdrawn In Uk For Calling On Jesus For Help! by Relax101(m): 7:18pm On Nov 05, 2011
A 51 year old Nigerian-born UK resident nurse, Omolayo Abayomi, has had her Nurse's licence withdrawn by the UK Nursing and Midwifery Council for throwing her hands into the air and begging for Jesus to help, as a baby she was supposed to be taking care of suffered a heart attack.
According to Daily Mail UK, Omolayo Abayomi 'panicked' when the child, who suffered from a chronic lung disease, turned blue and stopped breathing in his cot at home. The nurse called for divine intervention more than 20 times before the vulnerable boy's mother told her to 'shut up'.
The nurse was constantly saying "Jesus help him" and waving her arms around,' a hearing was told.
What is wrong with these oyibo people, don't they know in Nigeria, we can't do anything without calling the name of Jesus?, :-). Continue reading,


The nurse 'provided wholly inadequate care' by leaving the frantic mother to resuscitate her lifeless son, while the father dialled 999.
Abayomi was found guilty of a string of charges by the Nursing and Midwifery Council at a hearing in central London.
Sydney Topping, for Abayomi, insisted his client's behaviour had represented no more than a 'bad day at the office' and urged the panel to let her off with a caution.
'Once in a while you have a bad day at the office,' he said.

'I would suggest that on April 8 the registrant had a bad day at the office. It was no worse than that. She has bounced back since then.'

The hearing heard that the child, referred to a Patient A, and his twin sister were born three months premature at Homerton University Hospital in Hackney, east London, and as a result suffered from a number of serious illnesses and so required round-the-clock care.

Joanna Dirmikis, for the NMC, said Abayomi had been employed by private nursing firm Paediatric Nursing Link to look after the infant, who required 22 hours of nursing care every day.
The parents were woken by a knock on their bedroom door at 5am on April 8, 2007, to find their son lying lifeless after suffering respiratory cardiac arrest, the panel was told.

'While Mrs A was trying to resuscitate the child, Mr A called 999,' said Miss Dirmikis.
'The twin sister of the little boy was also present during the incident and can be heard crying in the background during the call.'

'She panicked and at one stage even summoned divine intervention, calling for Jesus,' she added.
Paramedics rushed the boy to Whipps Cross Hospital in Leytonstone, east London, before he was taken to Great Ormond Street Hospital on the same day for further treatment.
Giving evidence, a tearful Mrs A said Abayomi had effectively 'abandoned' her during the incident.

'The nurse was constantly saying "Jesus help him" and waving her arms around,' she said.
'She said it more than 20 times. I felt I had to do everything - at that point she was doing nothing to help my son.
'She never offered to take the lead at any point and at no point did she suggest calling 999.
'I can't change what's happened to my son, I know I did the best for him but the nurse just completely abandoned her duty.

'If I can save just one other person from having to go through what we have been through, then that's what I want to do.'

The panel heard Patient A, now aged five, made a full recovery from the incident but is still totally dependent on others for his care.

Abaymo claimed the mother had pushed her away and refused to let her help.
She denied calling out for Jesus, panicking and failing to provide care or basic life support.
The nurse further denied failing to properly handover the case to paramedics and making inaccurate and false notes about the incident.

She was cleared of specific charges that she suctioned the child's tracheostomy tube or that she failed to record observations taken but was found guilty of misconduct and ruled unfit to continue working without restrictions.

Striking Abayomi off, panel chair John Williams said: 'This was a failure to accept responsibility for her role in the events by the registrant.
'She has shown a lack of empathy with the parents of the child and there has been no admission or apology, and therefore no insight.
'This failure is incompatible with her continuing to be a registered nurse.'

She was not sanctioned because she called Jesus but because she wasn't doing her Job. She should have called Jesus in her mind. She should just become a spiritual doctor and leave the physical side to competent people.

Because she was calling Jesus instead of doing the job she was paid to do. Nigerians have become too religious that it begins to becloud their sense of reasoning. No wonder our country is still the way it is. We're always waiting for God to come down and save us when he has given us the power to thread upon serpents and scorpions. We don't know the power we wield as sons and daughters of God.

HOW CAN THIS BE A NURSE? undecided
Look at her face? Very UGLY woman in the image and likeness of SATAN himself praying for another. . .? shocked
The child's mother recognized her as THE WITCH she truly is.
When these 'Olodo' nurses do not know what to do at their jobs, they start calling 'Jesus-Jesus'! grin
She should be in jail for inflicting 'mental anguish' on an already stressed parents.

Now, listen up O ye Noisy Chrissshians. . . Not every knee shalt bow, and every tongue confess at the MENTION OF HIS NAME!!!

Gedddddit?

Gosh! Irtitating creatures! Next time such m0r0ns will ask permission before openiing their filthy traps to chant "Jesus-Jusus' in public!

The woman is a reflection of the religious stupidity that has engulfed most of us here in nigeria but unfortunately she took her mediocracy which is a norm in nigeria to a serious and pragmatic society dat dnt encorrage such religious insanity after all they brought religion to us but we v added stupidity to it and it irritates them and any sane mind as well.

The title of the thread is correct; The nurse called Jesus for help instead of doing her job to save the baby. Religion is for drop outs. People hold on to religion, like a crutch because they can't make it any other way. With religion you stop being responsible for your own actions and blame someone else like God when it's something you like and the Devil when it's something you don't like.

I think the nurse was just really paniked sometimes when something dramatic or unexpected happens you just shut down and go blank i think thats what happend and jesus was the only saviour she could think of. Just a bad day at work its a shame they dont even say she has done it previously which i gather she hasnt otherwise they would have mentioned it in court. The punishment i feel was just harsh. Some people here showing so much hate towards her like it was thr child or shes done something personally to them??!! Some even blame nigeria's problems on her WTF!? The country must be in a dire situation for people to blame it on someone that resides and works in the UK.
