  11. Linda you never see anything.... When my mother was rushed to the ifako ijaye General hospital... You need to see what happened there... The government doctors are reluctant,nurses too except for a few of them.... And they hike the prices of their drugs because they know one is on desperate need of it.. when I discovered I had to go to Boluke pharmacist at Agege to buy them myself...... It's not something to remember.. What about IGBOBi.... If you go there too you will cry...

    1. Yes,look at the oxygen cylinder,it has a humidifier,so it's safe for her,there will not be any oxygen toxicity.

    2. Why does the whole cylinder have to be by the patients head? Are there no portion packs for that too?! Haba
      It is frightening. Only Doctors think otherwise. Smh

  16. It has to be some sort of joke!! But the woman's posture looks like it is real!

  17. Linda this not fair at all. Unless she needs your help to reach out to the general public in paying her bills, you have no right to post her pix. She's a patient for heaven sake!, u have no idea the pain she might be feeling. This is total invasion of privacy. It is unethical.*sigh*

    1. I think you should be quiet if you have nothing to say. First, the pix was already in the public domain and you are obviously missing the point and context of this post.

    1. Linda make some research before posting. That is an oxygen cylinder attached to her nostrils, and an intravenous fluid set attached to her hand. Its a common sight in most emergency units of hospitals.

Is dis uniuyo teaching hospital.dat na oxygen tank na.linda warrisdat.we have oxygen plant but no wall units to plug in so na so dem dey carry heavy cylinder climb steps to patients ward.if Deres an emergency the relative is sent to theatre unit(whether they know d way or not) to go and buy oxygen.that big cylinder is about 11500k.and u can't tell if it's full or not......Life as a nigerian doctor na improvisation and manage manage.if you go back to d governors wife who is a doctor dat was treating a child,in d photo you see d cotton wool on the bed instead of in a sterile dish or tray.d thing she used to tie d patients hand to see veins is supposed to be a tourniquet but she's using a piece of drip tubing which we doctors cut into pieces to manage.sometimes na rubber bands we use.our system is in shambles I must say.our government has to prioritize health care and education.i weep for my country.common gloves patients relations must go and buy before you can attend to dem.the logistics is a story for another day,if u bring a patient to teaching hospital you go wakawaka up and down.pay here,take receipt go to lab upstairs,collect blood sample bottles with receipt,bring bottle to doctor,go and buy syringes and hand gloves,dr takes blood samples and gives patients ppl to submit to d respective labs.its a mess.systemic mess.please shed more light on this decay so maybe,there will be an overhaul.dr Olaspecial

    1. You must be insane. So your mediocre brain accepts anything as long as it saves lives abi. No wonder this country is the way it is. Get exposed and know that things can be better okay. If those thieves you sing praises to so as to get 500 naira stop looting, this country can do much better than this.

    2. Linda is such a bush woman gosh! That's oxygen to help her breathe. Are you sure you went to school?

  57. Lol, looks more like a cooking gas cylinder.

  58. It's clear the lady is in the emergency unit of a hospital where mobile oxygen tanks are used. This is a perfectly normal situation even in advanced countries. Let's not seize every opportunity to criticise the society. There's nothing wrong with this picture. This is the picture of a health facility saving a life irrespective of the fact that they have meagre reresources.

    ReplyDelete
  59. It doesn't take more than common sense to figure out what is going on. You don't need to be in the medical field to know oxygen tank and drip and as for the soda beside her, that's for her consumption. We r very quick to judge and point fingers in naija that is one of the reasons for backwardness in that country. Fingers r not equal and I guess the lady went for wat she cldn't afford abi Linda na u Wan pay the bills? Abeg come down frm ur high horse & look again clearly this time

  60. That's how some Accident & Emergency units are in some hospitals. Too bad

  61. My Nigerians don't see anything wrong with the picture, Linda, now you see the kinda followers you have. It's perfectly normal to them. Help us enlighten ourselves .
