The patient, who died on April 3, infected his wife with the virus before his demise

A senior consultant with the University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital, Ilorin, Kwara State, Alakija Salami, has been suspended by management of the hospital for covering up the status and death of a patient, who recently returned to Nigeria from the United Kingdom.

The patient, who died on April 3, infected his wife with the virus before his demise.

A statement by the hospital’s management on Monday night said, “The management of University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital hereby suspends Prof A.K. Salami as a senior consultant in the hospital.

“This is as a result of his unethical conduct in the admission, management and eventual release of the corpse of a suspected COVID-19 patient who died in the hospital on the 3rd of April, 2020.”

Kwara currently has two confirmed cases of Coronavirus while at the national level, Nigeria has a total of 238 infections and five recorded deaths.

There should be harsher penalties attached to such so as to serve as a warning to others in future.

That's very good...

The guy is unprofessional, imagine, there is tension in Offa right now.

Because
1. The patient was carried down to Offa to be buried

2. Those who wash the dead might have been infected

3. Those who went to the burial might have been infected

4. Those who went to greet his wife and child in the house might have been infected.

Mind you the wife is now positive...
She's now in ilorin

When the aforementioned was going on, they didn't know that the decrease died of coronavirus because of the stupid doctor wey kept the matter and refuse to inform the government

I read that the wife is dead as well.

.

Damn it.

This man should be prosecuted for murder.

Imagine millions he have endangered already.

The guy should be made to face the full music of the law.
His actions, if he is found guilty, can cause mass infection of novel Corona virus and mass death in the society.
Highly unprofessional of him and even the Unilorin Teaching Hospital teams as well as covering up by the Kwara State Government.

HarunaWest:

I read that the wife is dead as well.

I've not heard about it sha.

Are you sure? This would be highly serious if it is possible.
Imagine, they were busy washing the body of the (Dead) Man before burial.

Good. Suspending him is not enough tho
