The last medical students in my rotation would probably think, I'm a wicked person.... But how is it that you've done 8 rotations in surgery and you still resume a new unit, come to wardround or threatre without clerking any patient. That's not fair on your training....




🚨 BREAKING: Another Warri Doctor in ICU After Systemic Failure. We have just received a devastating update. A House Officer at Central Hospital, Warri, slumped yesterday and is currently fighting for his life in the ICU. This is not just a "collapse." This is the tragic result of a system that abandoned him months ago. In February, this same doctor was beaten for 20 minutes by hoodlums arranged by a patient's relative. The first 5 minutes of that beating happened at the hospital gate, right where the security post was, while guards were slow to respond. He sustained severe facial and abdominal injuries. He has not been the same since. Since that day, he has been in and out of sickness, unable to function at full capacity, yet still trying to serve a system that failed to protect him. While his attackers were never caught and the hospital moved on, this young doctor carried the physical complications of that assault alone. Yesterday, during a meeting to discuss the recent Saturday attack on his colleagues, he excused himself because he felt unwell. On his way to the hostel to rest, he slumped and collapsed on the ground. If he had been the one on duty this past Saturday, he would have faced another round of beating while yet to recover from the first. Our hospitals are no longer safe. We are calling on the Delta State Government: Why were the February attackers never arrested? Why was this doctor left to suffer without justice? He was beaten for serving you. Now he is in the ICU. We demand justice.
