Protest in Abakaliki after patient relatives gang up to beat nurse mercilessly. She lost one teeth in the incident.
This happened at FATHA along Abakaliki – Enugu expressway, as the unhappy nurses took to the street to show their feelings.
A nurse at the hospital told reporters that they are protesting because of how they are being treated sometimes by relatives of some patients.
“This morning, a relative of a patient flogged our member mercilessly and removed one of her teeths. We are not happy and that’s why we are protesting”, the nurse said.
As at the time of filing this report, efforts to ascertain why the relative of the patients flogged the nurse proved abortive.
Efforts to also speak with government officials also yield positive results.
As expected, the topic has drawn public reactions. See some comments gathered by kikio.ng
Ndenomy: Finally, someone is giving them a taste of their own madness. grin. If you see how some of these Nigerian nurses treat people, especially in public hospitals, you’ll start to wonder if they even get paid at all. I hope that woman knocks her teeth out and scrapes her face on a wall. Nonsense and Buhari
Richtaiwo: Oya, we are waiting to hear from Atiku, pandora gringory and sowore to organise international press conference on this with a view on how Tinubu should handover power to gbajue bastards.
Darkwan: kiki….nigerians and beatins….they would even koboko tinubu too if they had the chance….
Zionmdde: Medicine after death
Where were other nurses, doctors, security guys, other staffs of the hospital when they were flogging the nurse.
We should learn to defend our own on the spot and not to wait after the damage has been done we start protesting Meanwhile I hope they arrest and lock up the perpetrators. Maximum sentence
