LASTMA'S BRIBERY & CORRUPTIONS: TRAILER RAMMED INTO CUSTOMS BUILDING IN MILE2...
MOTHER & HER BABY DETAINED IN HOSPITAL FOR FAILING TO OFFSET THE BILL 3-MONTH AFTER DELIVERY!!!
A Nigerian citizen,
Mrs.Chinwe, 30, mother of a newly born baby and her Husband, Babatunde Williams
has remained stranded in a private hospital, Midas
Touch Clinic ,in the Surulere area of Lagos State three months after she
gave birth to a baby boy through a caesarean section, because the family had yet to pay about N500,000 bill incurred since
October 13, 2014.
The
bills read in part, “As of October 10, 2014: Surgeries N300,000; discharge
N32,000. As of November 28, 2014: Second discharge, N80,500; accommodation,
N34,000 and nursing care, N25,500.”
Chinwe said, “As I speak with you, the wound in the aftermath of the operations is still there. I am so weak that I cannot breastfeed my baby. We used to buy baby milk for him, but we have resorted to giving him pap when we could no longer afford the milk.
“Families and friends have tried their best, but it seems they have given up on us because they are no longer coming. The doctor stopped treating me because of the debt that keeps increasing. All my capital as a trader is exhausted.”
Williams, an engineer, said he had been sacked by the company he was working for because caring for his wife took part of the company’s time. He added that Chinwe’s stomach swelled up after the surgeries.
He said, “He lost about six pints of blood, which I bought for N14,000 per pint. I am always with her to see how she fares. In fact, our first child sleeps with us here in the hospital. I lost my job when I did not show up in the office after 10 days. I am fed up. God have mercy on us.”
Williams added that although the hospital manager had been kind to him, he was now under pressure to pay the bill.
“The manager has really tried for us. But when he realised that his money was not forthcoming, he ordered his workers to stop treating her,” he added.
The manager of the hospital, Dr. Tola Fasaye, said he ordered the nurses to stop treating the patient to hasten the payment.
He said “The patient was referred to this hospital when her condition was critical. We just had to save her life first even though her husband did not deposit a dime. After the caesarean section, we discovered that she had perforated uterus. Even the blood she used, I personally borrowed money to buy them before he (Williams) paid me back.
“I had to borrow money to pay the surgeons. I told nurses to stop the dressing of the wound because the husband is proving smart. I know he does not have money, but he should go out and look for money to pay the bills.
“I owe my staff salaries and I need to pay them. But now, on humanitarian ground, I will tell my staff to dress her wound.”

ECUADORIAN BEAUTY QUEEN DIES DURING 'LIPOSUCTION' PROCEDURE@ 19
A 19yr old Ecuadorian beauty queen and medical
student medicine at the Catholic University of Santiago de Guayaquil, Catherine
Cando (pictured above) died on Saturday January 10th during a botched
liposuction operation she got as a prize after she won a local beauty contest.
According to local media reports, Catherine won money and the cosmetic surgery procedure after she won Ecuador's Queen of Durán beauty contest in 2014. Her brother said Catherine initially rejected the surgery because she was young and figured she could lose the weight by working out but when a surgeon pressured her, she caved in.
"She was thinking about letting someone else have it as a freebie but eventually she agreed to have it just to get him off her back," Her brother, Daniel Zavela told the media

OBITUARY: PROPHET GABRIEL FAKEYE PASSES AWAY
GRAPHIC : SOS...HIGH TENSION ELECTRIC CABLES FALLING ON CITIZEN & SCARRED HIM FOR LIFE!!!
The danger and horror of high tension electric cables
falling on citizens at bus stops and market places in Nigeria have been further
brought home to everyone with the horrifying accident that happened to Seyi Oguntade, 28, scarred for
life, with his face and eyes completely gone. His nose too is also gone. There is a hole in the centre
of his head which is emitting a nauseating stench!
According to the New Telegraph, Oguntade , presently
needs N12 million for a face reconstruction surgery. The management of the
company he used to work before his accident, actually lent a helping hand, but
later allegedly abandoned him.
Before this unfortunate incident, Oguntade, was an
assistant driver with Billy James Company, Ijesha, Lagos, and was sent on
errand to deliver a mast to one of his company’s clients somewhere in Ikeja.
However, he could not make the delivery that day because
he was said to have arrived late. As a result, he decided to pass the night in
the truck with which the mast was conveyed, hoping that the delivery would be
made first thing the following day.
While he was sleeping, a high tension electric cable fell
on him that night, causing monumental damage to his face and life.
His scream attracted people who rushed him to the General
Hospital, Ikeja, where he was rejected and was later taking to Lagos University
Teaching Hospital, (LUTH). There, the basic treatment to keep him alive was
administered on him.
Although, he survived it, his face was battered beyond
recognition.
Jude Chukwuka, an actor, philanthropist and coordinator
of Ozanam Heritage Initiative, a non-governmental organisation, explained that he
needed a facial prosthesis and facial reconstruction i.e. Plastic Surgery of
the face. This however could only be done in India.
Chukwuka said: “The Company he was attached to as a
contract staff took care of him at the initial stage of the accident but later
abandoned him when it was obvious that the case would require huge funds. Since
the family could not afford the fund, Society of St. Vincent de Paul, decided
to wade in, on April, 2014. Since then, the organisation has been making
available the sum of N5, 000 every Wednesday for his upkeep.”
“At the moment, nothing significant has been realised,
hence the need for well-meaning Nigerians to assist. Mr. Oguntade has a wife
and two children. He also has elderly parents to carter for. He deserves a
chance to live a normal life again,” said Chukwuka. “It is in the light of this
that Ozanam Heritage Initiative, in conjunction with Society of St. Vincent de
Paul, are calling on philanthropic individuals, corporate organizations, the
media and the government to come to the aid of this victim of circumstance.”
The president of Society of St. Vincent de Paul, Mrs.
Remi Badmus, said that a friend told her about Oguntade plight, adding that
when she eventually saw him, she was deeply touched and decided to also bring
in her knowledge and those of her colleagues.
Badmus noted: “Seyi needs every one of us, to be back to
life.”
