Nigerian Doctor Uses ‘improvised Incubator’ To Save Baby’s Life - Photos by GistmoreNG(op): 10:54am On Nov 08, 2018
A Nigerian medical doctor has been applauded by many on social media after he used an improvised incubator to save a premature baby’s life.

The doctor is now a viral sensation after he saved a child’s life by using a carton to improvise as an incubator.

Dr Chibuike Joseph Chukwudum, who works at a hospital in the southeastern part of Nigeria has been hailed a hero for his actions.

As there was no incubator available at the hospital where he works, he kept a fragile baby alive by creating an incubator with a carton. He then added hot water bottles and a source of light to keep the child as warm as possible.

I don't even know what to say on this, whether to commend him or feel awkward.

And the money to buy incubators for 10 hospitals will be spent by one politician tommorow night on Ashantis.

You must be kidding to say Nigeria is still far behind, I'm sure the incubator would be found in lots of hospitals around the area only that it wasn't available where the doctor was at the time.

You tried with your circumstance doctor.


Let this sink in, In 2018 about to be 2019, a country, i mean Nigeria, the so called most educated blacks, do not have constant and dependable electricity. We are begging and waiting around for when one oyibo or asian or even middle east nation, will feel pity for us and help us do it with pay.

Honestly when you get medical treatment in a developed country you will truly feel sorry for Nigerian medical practitioners. they have so very little to work with. How they manage to save any life at all is beyond me. Kudos to them!
