Female Student Dies Over Alleged Lack Of Oxygen At Nigerian Law School Clinic | Sahara ReportersA student of the Nigerian Law School, Lagos State Campus, Nnenna Amadi, has passed on due to alleged negligence from the school’s medical centre. The deceased reportedly had a severe asthma attack on Thursday and was rushed to the school’s medical centre. According to her colleagues, the health centre’s response to her was not good enough as the nurses on duty claimed they did not have oxygen. Just imagine the catastrophic and gargantuan failure this country has subjected us to? Imagine a precious soul has gone just like that? See, whoever that brought APC into power, and still campaigning for them again now, may God punish you. My Friend Mother also died from FMC Yenagoa, because of lack of oxygen in the hospital. Blood freely donated & Oxygen are still very much expensive in our public hospitals. So what is the health sector doing to keep Human Life alive in case of emergency? Go private hospital? No This country's failure is just leadership. Buhari can afford the multi-billion services of Niger Republic but can't equip our healthcare system. This is highly lugubrious and grossly reprehensible.
