The hospital should shift the blame to FG shamless hospital don't they have standby generator, Nigerians are very good in placing the blame or where there ever a time we had constant light supply in this country, a very good management team should have anticipated that.

If so then the hospital is strictly to blame,not the power supply.The reason why the common oxygen cylinders is preferred in this part of d world for this same simple reason that u just have to refill it and even in situations of power outages or total darkness,your patient still lives.
Honestly, no Nigerian hospital shd depend on an oxygen concentrator,its ironically life threatening in our kind of environment!

Perhaps, she was hooked to other machines that require electricity..

You can as well blame the all powerful and omnipotent GEJ for making you less intelligent than a monkey.

Why crying more than the bereaved? Better watch it before you start having high bp.

You are still defending the government. Mehn, you are brainless, stup1d and foolish. So you don't know about the fuel scarcity that's going on?

Last I checked if you wanted fuel you would get it but I you willing to pay.

Well....I cannot comment on his wisdom....but if your man had transformed the electricity sector like he claimed he did.....we would probably had said bye bye to generators right now.

IMO....Buhari should focus on transmission and on generation. A nuclear power plant might end our dependency on generator power for now.

Sensible nations do not depend on generators.

There is no correlation between "light" and oxygen delivery.

The patient was probably on E or H tank and they are not powered by anything. Nigerian hospitals don't use oxygen concentrators.

So they should investigate what else caused the death.

That's all

Why should a hospital use useless,unreliable,unpredictable so called NEPA in Nigeria to put a patient on oxygen,if not because the hospital is being headed like the clueleess president that we have. Another life wasted by the Nign government

Sorry but what's the relationship between oxygen cylinders and electricity? This story is so so incorrect.

Tolexander:
apart from the unreliable electricity, have you forgotten the recent fuel scarcity?
The fuel scarcity might have led to the generator problem.


I'm not trying to defend the hospital though!
Fuel scarcity isn't an excuse. Afterall a hospital of that magnitude isn't going to be running 'I beta pass my neighbour' kind of gen but a large (above 15kva) generator which uses DIESEL...and we all knw dat diesel is available despite the scarcity of PMS-petrol

ikeonyeka:
let's be objective here.
General Hospital Gbagada is a state owned institution, why should you be blaming a president in Aso rock when you should be blaming a governor in Alausa?

There is too little information,

FG has failed with Power but why did the stand-by generator fail to come on... If it was because of the difficulty with fuel then FG can be blamed but if it is because of a lack of maintenance, you might blame the hospital authorities..

Actually there are oxygen converters also called oxygen concentrators that make use of electricity that concentrates atmospheric oxygen into medical oxygen.having said that, the post was not clear on the type of supply system that the hospital in question uses.
Yeah but I doubt if a general hospital in Nigeria has an oxygen concentrator. Maybe in a few,yes,few teaching hospitals and federal medical centres.
I am almost sure d woman must have been on an oxygen cylinder and so I feel d author was being mischievous.

Oxygen delivery does not need electricity.

Re: Sad: Woman Placed On Oxygen At General Hospital Dies After Nepa Took Light by Lucasbalo(m): 3:25pm On May 10, 2015
This is very personal to me in the sense that I have been hospitalized once before that I was inebriated and on oxygen for couple weeks and nothing went wrong. Of course, this was in Chicago where you do not expect power failure, and in case of power failure, there is immediate power backup by power generator. That woman's death is the effect of Nigeria's bad leadership over the years latest of which is GEJ. Hopefully, GMB will be much better and things will improve. Nigeria deserves better than being a perpetual third world Nation.

Yeah,theoretically could be an oxygen concentrator, but I honestly don't know if any general hospital in Nigeria uses one for same erratic power issues. Am still convinced she was on d standard oxygen cylinder and so find no link with power supply.

Fashola is not running the country....you know. (Plus...that was Tinubu's project.)

Plus...there are issues between federal and state government over power generated....and how it should be used...said dispute going back to before GEJ.In brief....Govt wants state to give them the power generated....while state wants to keep power.

And BTW....what has your man done for power? Why are we still below capacity?

Anyway....Buhari as I said should focus on generation and transmission...especially the transmission.

These s1lly hospital ran out if oxygene and knowing what Nigerians are, they quickly turned around to blame PHCN.
