Nollywood iconic actor segun arinze took to his facebook page to show his disgust over how Nigerian hospital treats their patients, even those that need immediate medical attention are disregarded by our hospitals.
According to him, a hospital had refused to receive an accident patient whose live was on the line instead they closed the doors of the hospital and no matter how hard the crowd tried to wreck down the building, the doctors and nurses turned deaf ears.
This is what the star wrote;
“I just witnessed one of the most unimaginable acts by any hospital. I was in a barbing salon having a shave opposite Doreen Hospital Thomas Estate Ajah and we heard crowd noise downstairs we stood to see what was wrong? A Man had an accident and was brought in unconscious.
Doreen Hospital refused to open their door to help rescue the Man in spite of all entreaties. Some of the nurses refused to help they were just watching the Man on the ground.
So what happened to coronary law? Treat the Victim or patient first!! And ask questions or ask for payment later? What are hospitals turn to in Nigeria? Has life become valueless in our country?”
Maybe this is why when our big politicians fall sick there prefer flying out of the country to receive treatment and the masses are left to continue endure this suffering.
It should be noted that most Nigerian hospitals are guilty of killing their patients. Earlier in the week, actress-turned-evangelist, Eucharia Anunobia, lamented about how a Nigerian doctor killed her child. She said this while celebrating his posthumous sixteenth year birthday.
