The Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria (MDCN) has declared Dr. Yakubu Hassan Koji, guilty of all the 12 charges preferred against him, TheNation reports.

Koji was arraigned for allegedly surgically cutting off the kidneys of one Isa Hamma, now deceased, without informing the patient of the nature of the operation and risks involved.

The Chairman of the tribunal sitting of MDCN, Prof Abba Hassan, declared him guilty of gross negligence and professional misconduct and struck his name out of the register of MDCN.

Dr. Koji - who practiced from 2012 (housemanship) to 2016- had performed an operation on Hamma without informing him of the risks involved; in the process he ‘mistakenly’ cut off his kidneys.

An eye for an eye

Bsb

Na wa oh. Costly mistake.

Gross negligence and unprofessional conduct at its peak. I bet he is one of those clamoring for salary parity with their counterparts around the world when he doesn't even have what it takes to deserve such perquisite.

My maker please have Mercy !!
In my chosen path and career please take away this sort of tragedy. You might never know what temptation is until it lands on your table.

Note: temptation can render competence useless

Wicked man

Hey! Olohun sha anu. God Please, always take control in whatever we lay our hands on.

Professional negligence...

The family should follow this up with a Wrongful Death suit

which kind yeye mistake is that one kwanu was he thinking the dude wont find out his kidney is gone

nawaoo

Doctor konji lol. Rest in peace Isha Hamma

Hmm

That's why they tell us doctors....if the case too big for you.....REFER....!

During my youth service...they brought one patient for me. Patient had severe kidney disease. Was swollen. They wanted me to give him blood transfusion so that they could take him 'for prayers'.

Me I refused and told them to go to a teaching hosptial.

If they like, make them call me bad dokita. I no go put my hand for something wey I no fit do. If in doubt....REFER.

Don't do SERIOUS operation if you AINT A SPECIALST SURGEON!

he has sold the kidney

He should thereafter be charged for Manslaughter.

Practicing from 2012 and already headed towards the kidney?

Nsogbu dikwa.

Only God knows how many lives this butcher has wasted.
At times as a medical student I wonder if I'd be able to practice amidst terrible people like this .
The worst thing is that idiots like this one will still be clamouring for one useless supremacy.

Yes, and I know many good doctors from the North. I have also seen some bad doctors from the SOuth dragged infront of that same tribunal too....

Don't be a bigot.

Eyah so that guy finally died ..I still believe this doctor sold those kidneys

The guy was very unprofessional, its not a matter of temptation.

Ha.... Why would i allow someone whose name is KOJI to operate on me.. Am i mad ni... KOJI ko KONJI ni

I applaud the MDCN on this bold move, in house policing is safer for practitioners, but there should still be external oversight to prevent man know man

Aboki quota system doctor.

If you're going to steal somebody's kidney couldn't you at least keep them alive? Smh
