A social media user has exposed the deplorable state of a government hospital in Lagos state which has become frustrating for both patients and staff.
Some of the patients at the hospital
A social media user has reported the pitiable state of a hospital in Lagos which is far below the required standard of a medical centre. Read the brief report made by the concerned Nigeria:
"This is a General Hospital at Orile Agege, in Lagos State. According to my source who visited this place, he told me that patients are been treated on bare floor, yes, I mean bare floor. He said the Managing Direcyor of this hospital has refused to discharge these sets of people when they complained of the condition of the hospital. The MD also stated that no one should be referred to any other hospital, knowing fully well that there is no bed space left again, the patients have no choice but to sleep on the floor, on benches and on the metal chairs at the reception.
"The MD still made these patients to pay, even though they had no bed space and rats were rampant in this place, I was reliably informed that rats roam this facilities at will. An unconfirmed report have it that, there may be likely case of LASSA fever in this hospital.
"I want to use this medium to call on the Executive Governor of Lagos State, Mr. Ambode, The commissioner of health, Dr. Jide Idris and other law enforcement to please go into this hospital before we have an epidemic situation in Lagos state"
