A driver at Michael Okpara University Of Agriculture Umudike, Abia State whose name was given as Kingsley Akpan a native of Akwa Ibom State has been shot dead by yet-to-be-identified persons.

An eyewitness, Nnamdi Dike who spoke to ABN TV shortly after the incident on Monday said they were in his shop located at F-line Junction Agbama Housing Estate Umuahia when they heard a gunshot.

According to him, Akpan was hit on the chest by a bullet suspected to have come from a group of passers-by from Olokoro in Umuahia South LGA who were in the area to celebrate their new yam festival.

The victim was said to have raised alarm and immediately rushed to the hospital.

The eyewitness told ABN TV that the victim was rejected in the first hospital but later admitted at Federal Medical Centre where he was eventually pronounced dead.

This devilish Junta in their desperate attempt to smear IPOB has succeeded in wasting this precious life. Even when the Igbos are celebrating new yam festival this brutal regime struck. It shall never be well with the culprits

The eyewitness told ABN TV that the victim was rejected in the first hospital but later admitted at Federal Medical Centre where he was eventually pronounced dead.

Sorry if I sound ignorant, but can someone please explain to me why an institution established primarily to save lives will reject a dying man who got shot.

Let's assume he was treated by the first hospital, we'd probably be reading a different story.

But seriously I'll like someone to give an elucidating answer to the question I raised.
Maybe there's a statue or law requiring hospital to selectively treat gunshot victims.
