Lagos House of Assembly members ask Fashola to rename IDH after Adadevoh

Members of the Lagos State House of Assembly moved a motion yesterday September 24th asking the state Governor, Babatunde Fashola to rename the Infectious Disease Hospital, IDH, where Ebola disease patients were recently treated, after Doctor Stella Adadevoh.

The motion for her to be immortalized was moved by Hon Adefunmilayo Tejuoso and seconded by Hon Muyiwa Jimoh. The lawmakers said Dr. Adadevoh's act of stopping Sawyer from leaving the First Consultant hospital after she found out he was infected with the deadly virus, saved many lives
 
The Speaker of the House of Assembly, Adeyemi Ikuforiji directed the clerk of the House, Segun Abiru to communicate the decision to the state Governor. If approved by the Governor, the hospital will be known as the Stella Adadevoh Infectious Disease Hospital. Hope he approves...

  5. I trust our able governor Fashola, to do the right thing by granting this request. I know most Nigerians dont appreciate such rare breeds in our society these days.... but this womans courage to speak out and act right has saved millions of lives.... renaming IDH after her is the right thing to do.

    3. "Infectious diseases" has to be there because it is primarily built for infectious diseases! It is not your regular hospital. *anya_o2003@yahoo.com*

  31. Good development! Is she from Lagos? Bless her soul

  32. She deserves it biko. The woman is a heroine and should be acknowledged as such.

  33. In as much as it seem that the suggestion was done in good faith, it is apparently not thought through at all. If that facility is named after late Dr. Adadevoh, what other facilities will be named after the nurses and other innocent victims of Ebola virus who were going about thier honest duties before that maniac man came in with that deadly disease? What about the dead nurse, her unborn baby etc. Please let the governemnt honor them all by paying tributes to them but not naming any hospital after them. They are all victims and heroes as far as i am concerned

    ReplyDelete
  34. What about Nurse Justina? Is it because she is a Nurse? She too should be remembered

    ReplyDelete
  35. I hope so bcos she deserve it,may her soul rest in perfect peace

    ReplyDelete
  36. Sounds good.
    But there are so many other doctors too who have lost their life on the line of duty

    ReplyDelete
  37. llike seriously wow makn sense

    ReplyDelete
  38. may her soul rest in peace ,but she is not the only one that died is it cause she is a doctor other pple died too including nurses .why honouring her alone.
