Final Year Student Of Unizik Slumps And Dies Due To Poor Medical Facilities by iamstanc(m): 12:33pm On Jul 22, 2018
Few days after signing out as a final year student , a final year student of the department of microbiology, Nnamdi Azikwe Universities Awka, Anambra State ( unizik) identified as "francis",  was said to have lost his life yesterday while playing basket

he was reported to have slum while playing, and was rushed immediately to the school medical center where they met the absence of a resident doctor and no medical personnel could revive him, and before he was rushed to another hospital was proclaimed dead..



This obviously didn't go well with Unizik students  as they took to social media to pour out their grief, demanding for a build up or burn down of the medical center

May his humble soul rest in peace

See some reactions below:

I feel bittered ,What a nonsense of Nnamdi Azikiwe university clinic in Awka, a final year student, a course mate, just to share memories together was rushed to the nonsense, rubbish clinic on emergency, on getting to the hospital no single doctor was there to attend to him, the nurses looking like cleaners couldn't even attend to him, Francis was right before us dying !!!!!, professionals in the medical field told us to pray without them playing their own part, I was gutted , although we were praying heavily , we tried to rush Francis to another hospital a doctor rushed in stupidly asking the hospital she is working in if they had oxygen and Bp apparatus, the nurses said no, Francis was going far out of this world right in our very before ,that was when it occurred to them that Francis would be rushed to the hospital , I was inside the ambulance holding Francis foot, it was damn cold, his eyes were already open!!! I was scared , I knew only miracle could happen because Francis had no impulse, on getting to Amaku general hospital the doctors saw it was already late, Francis had no life in him again, they left him unattended , we felt it has happened already , as his course mates we were optimistic a miracle could happen, Francis was gone, our lecturer came and broke the news to us in the hospital , we cried , we are still crying, we are feeling bitter , the dean of students affair came to show his stupidity, he said "THIS IS NIGERIA, WE DON'T EXPECT THINGS TO BE PERFECT, WE DON'T HAVE IMPLEMENTS, this words got us pissed ,he was then blaming our leaders, A DEAN OF STUDENTS AFFAIR, A LEADER, #ENOUGH_IS_ENOUGH This is our second course mate we, are loosing to unizik medicals , UNIZIK MEDICALS KILLED FRANCIS!!! Unizik medicals is a death trap, what is the essence of the money we pay for medicals!!!! They rarely even administer drugs ,#shut_down_that_hospital

Francis
Saturday started the way other days do start but how could we know that it will be your end because of a death trap that unizik set and call it school medical............
How can a whole federal university not have a well equipped facility to resuscitate someone that collapse........
How do you explain that a whole federal university do not have a resident doctor.....
And what one staff is telling us is that this is Nigeria, that if our laboratory is well equipped........
How do you explain that
In our year two Ogoo was rushed to that death trap, nothing was done to her, they cannot resuscitate her, she died, we cried, wiped our tears, and did nothing.
Now it's Francis, he collapsed, we rushed him to that same place, they could not do anything, he died, we will cry cos we are humans but WE WILL NOT KEEP QUIET......... ENOUGH IS ENOUGH
#burnitorbuildit
Rip Francis chinedu madubuobi
Till we meet to part no more
Please share till it get to the right place

Unizik Medical Center is whack and filled with incompetent, useless and stupid people, starting with the foolish slay queen doctor(I wonder who gave you that job), the stupid nurse(she was praying instead of trying to revive him) and lack of equipments. Can u imagine that foolish doctor was not even on sit and she took close to an hour to get to that nonsense centre and she even fixed long nails(medical doctor indeed) ... U guys just committed murder. U are responsible for his death. This school and country is really bleeped up. Rest in peace Chinedu Madubuobi���

I won't be surprised if I go to UNIZIK medicals for headache and I will be given sachetwater instead of paracetamol (at least)....that medical centre is worst if compared to chemist shop ...well the a dean told us "we should know that we all come from different home.we should know how we talk. Then he said " this is Nigeria ,that even our laboratories equipment s are not complete talk more of a medical centre
Pls people reason with me ...medical centre and school laboratories which should have a better structure?
And the so called dean threatened a female students when we were bittered (to slap her for what??)
Okay how can a cleaner attend to a student? Asking where the vein is and where it is not
And the doctor asking a student on Jersey kit where the B.P apparatus is (like he knows everything in the hospital)......
Unizik medicals couldn't do anything about it instead they were injecting HYDROCORTISONE into that boy with a torch light!!!!
Nobody speaks good of UNIZIK MEDICALS and we are not happy about it at all.if an old woman they call a nurse pray instead of helping save him what should we do
Stop forcing us to pay up dues when all u guys do is squander,get fat,buy flashy cars and treat us like cows.......

It's so sad a promising young man had to go this way. When will our leaders learn to make the basic necessities a priority? they care more about their selfish interest than making sure the system is in its right frame.
