May her soul rest in Peace. One of the most serious complications of long bone fractures is pulmonary embolism. Moreover, considering the sanitary state of most Nigerian hospitals, we can't rule out overwhelming infection too.

He was dragging audience with Dangote's crew with Phyna...like phyna should not have met with Dangote's representatives without him and felt slighted when she did.
That was the beginning of the bickering between the two, leading him to accuse her of betrayal and hiding her sister's private life from the public in respect to her late sister nursing two kids

This was the reason the Dangote's team did not want audience with vdm on this Matter. Because as always will take attention from what really matters.

The public didn't need to know anything about this lady's personal life.

There's no amount of money that would bring back the lady's leg so even if she or her family asks for N10billion as lifelong rehabilitation it's still within reason.

If the family chooses to build a house for her with it, send her abroad; scholarship for her kids; whatever the decision; we don't need that explanation.

All that matters is compensation is paid

But now, she dead!

May her soul rest in Peace!

Berankis:
Are you doing this deliberately or it's just the way you think?
VDM has done more than is expected, he should just back down now. The Victim's sister did not follow through with their agreement to take on Dangote together, she decided to do it alone, how is that VDM's fault?
VDM already put his life on the line for this Dangote fight, I feel he has done enough. We all have the responsibility to fight collectively for our safety and wellbeing. VDM is not the only Nigerian to do all the fighting for us. He is no superman, he is just a young man with courage and good spirit.
Let's all learn to fight for what is right or we remain the way we are.

This is Nigeria.

Apart from equipment, the doctors are overwhelmingly incompetent and on top of that they do not give a shit about their patients.

Visit public hospitals, observe and weep. Even Evercare in Lekki, with the millions they charge is a piece of garbage.

I know what I am saying.

AreaFada2:
Thank you my brother.
The thing is, we don't know how much blood she lost internally. She could have have had a pelvic bone fracture, and it appears at least a long bone was fractured, to loose that limb. These can cause massive blood loss and affect organs. How good and soon was the initial trauma care?

It's a miracle she didn't die of shock soon after. Perhaps because she was young, fit and vital organs were in top shape.

As for infection risk, antibiotics available to use might even be fake. And you think doctors' exodus has no serious impact on the quality of trauma management and surgical hands available?

The average 9ja has no idea just how deep the mess in all sectors is.

RIP to her.

You made sense. Chevron had one air ambulance. I once announced the opportunity here when they needed a certified air ambulance nurse. I shared same vacancy on major social media platform but I was unable to get one for chevron, for months. In a country of over 200m population(official) fa, no single air ambulance nurse could be found. I wonder which kain course our people dey study sef.

Air ambulance nurses,
Emergency Response Personnel,
Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineers,
Biomedical Engineers, etc are hot cakes.

Sadly, people are too blind to see them. Instead, they'd be going for anyhow courses just because they want to enter a university. Time is invaluable fa

Gerrard59:
The bold is the only viable course there, but it is very expensive and not administered by many universities. Biomedical engineering exists, but the jobs are fewer, so many don't opt for it, and even if they do, it is "JAMB that gave them", not out of passion.

Emergencies are not taken seriously across the country aside from a few MNCs, so the demand cannot entice a supply.

Someone should explain how a leg amputation can lead to death when the person does not suffer from diabetes.

Truvelisback:
Loss of blood and the side effect on her body.

Monimaker22:
If they messed up as you claimed, what did you do in your own part when you heard of it, are you not also popular in the social media, pushing blames and yet didn't do anything.

helinues:
Only those who want to be controversial will get involved in such . I am only active on NL.

Facebook, I don't make comments only read and that's only other social media I am on. The issue wasn't even brought to NL properly.

Eriokanmi:
That emergencies aren't taken seriously here shouldn't be a reason people don't research on, and go for such a lucrative career, that's capable of writing off poverty in their lineage. On the contrary, ordinary LASU runs Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineering and their fees are cheap, you see? Likewise OAU. My Biomedical Engineer travels the world, for trainings. His colleague works for a top hospital in the UK as I speak. Every hospital needs a Biomedical Engineer as well, home and abroad. Information is very key. If you're well informed, you'd definitely get whatever you want. Even if you studied the best course and you're not informed, it's useless.

I remember a guy who studied in FG's Kaduna college of aviation and complaining of joblessness. I introduced Archer aviation to him and he applied, today he's in the US, doing great. That's the power of Information. Once you had that right degree and you're well informed, the sky is your starting point . Those professions may not be appreciated locally but out there, theyre never enough.

When I graduated, I didn't know anyone who could help me. It's been stories upon stories. I got all the jobs I had through the then guardian newspapers of Tuesdays' and Thursdays' editions, without knowing anyone whereas, my colleagues were busy counting on people who later disappointed them. Till this morning as i speak to you, none of them could near.me in achievement. All glory to God. I've researched before posting those professions and based in my personal experience. Air ambulance exists but how many are qualified as nurses to work in this very lucrative sector?

Fash20:
You just displayed arrogance. Someone already explained clearly without attacking the individual that ask a genuine question who obviously has no medical experience without insult.

‘Phyna I am sorry for the loss of your sister but I need you to grab some lessons. I am not a fan of VDM but what you did to him is called Ingratitude. You could have used Harrison, Daddy Freeze or Brekete when you knew you didn’t want to use VDM. In a bid to spite VDM, you went to Izzy Ogbeide and you said a lot of things. Izzy used you as a bait to fight VDM. You turned your sister’s case into content creation. Activists are human beings too. When people are ungrateful, it k!lls your energy. If someone has been kind to you before, even if the person offends you, just keep quiet. You put out disgusting statements about VDM and still expected him to help you? Let us learn to be grateful’ - Blessing CEO

Saidfx:
I saw this coming..so vdm did wrong for calling out Dangote in the first place, abi? The Phyna would have discussed with vdm about her imminent meeting with Dangote crew. She would have, in a subtle manner open up to vdm of her sisters kids and her intentions to seek a 1 billion compensation from the so called Dangote. Bruh/sis, two wrongs don't make a right and vdm only told the public of his rational thoughts on her issue. Rip to the dead and please vdm is not a clout chaser but rather a Nigerian that has gathered courage with time on the social media space unlike the chickens who just waste their bandwidth on unsubstantial contents.

motymop:
She wanted 1b for treatment, what do you expect to happen.

Companies aren't meant for extortion.

The phyna woman is unstable, you can't trust someone like that.

malali:
She could have been transferred to a better hospital within Nigeria, but instead, she was left to die. No one could realistically survive multiple long‑bone fractures in that facility. She should have been moved to a tertiary hospital in Nigeria, or at least had access to teleconsultations with foreign specialists. She was given no fighting chance. She was abandoned to die.

Love your writeup. Wanted to know what preferred certification can one use to travel abroad and get a good paying job Mind you, am in my mid 40's

chaloskyx:
That girl shouldn't have died couldn't they have taken her to a private hospital? Here's my perspective: Phyna likely knew her sister wasn't going to survive, which may explain why she started distancing herself from people, including VDM and especially the father of her sister's children. In the event of their mother's death, he should naturally have custody, but Phyna began speaking badly about him possibly because she doesn't want him to claim any part of the compensation, even though he has a right to it through his children.
She even went as far as negotiating and finalizing settlements with Dangote. In my opinion, any compensation paid should be placed in a trust for the children, not handed over to Phyna directly. That way, the money is secured for the kids and not used for her personal benefit. Let’s not forget this is her sister we're talking about, yet instead of focusing on saving her life, Phyna seemed more concerned with pursuing a ₦1 billion payout which she intended for to be paid to her.
