A Businessman, Bashiru Wahab, has narrated how he lost his four-year-old son to what he described as incompetence on the part of Lagos State health workers.<\/p>\n

Speaking with the Vanguard,\u00a0 the bereaved father said that his late son, Bashiru Kehinde who was in Nursery Two, died of stomach complications at a Lagos hospital.<\/p>\n

In an emotional laden voice, Wahab who lives in Egbeda in the Alimosho area of Lagos said he decided to share his experience in his quest to demand justice for his late son and prevent a repeat of such costly mistake.<\/p>\n

Wahab said the journey to his son\u2019s death started on the morning of Friday, 3rd December 2021, when the deceased complained of a stomach problem. In his words, \u201cHe was vomiting heavily, crying, saying he felt a lot of pain. As parents, we couldn\u2019t watch him writhe in pain and we drove quickly to a nearby primary healthcare centre called Ipinlerere Health Center in Alimosho.<\/p>\n

\u201cOn arrival, we met a couple of administrative staff but no doctor<\/a> was available to attend to our son despite that the case was an emergency and my son was vomiting seriously coupled with the pains he was experiencing.”<\/p>\n

As if the staff could read Wahab\u2019s mind on that day, one of them apologized for the lapses. He said, \u201d One of them apologised and referred us to General Hospital, Orile, Agege. By then, my son was looking pale and helpless.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe was urgently admitted to the General Hospital and we were told to buy injections, drips and some other medical items, which we did.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe also did a blood test, and he was passed some drips but there was no improvement.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were told a doctor was coming to do a checkup on him very early the following day, and also give us a report. Unfortunately, the doctor did not arrive until 5 pm to check on him but the report was given at about 7 pm while he also referred us to the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital (LASUTH), Ikeja.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was getting late by that time and my son was defecating, vomiting and screaming. My wife<\/a> asked the staff if the Ambulance could be used. They said it used to cost N5,000, but the price had probably increased.<\/p>\n

\u201d I was upset and asked myself, \u2018do we need to pay for the services of an ambulance during emergencies? I hurriedly carried my son and beckoned at my wife to leave the hospital, rushed back to my car and put my son in the back seat.<\/p>\n

\u201cBy this time, my wife broke into tears because our baby\u2019s condition was worsened.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe got to LASUTH at about 11 pm, yet, it took over an hour to get the attention of the medical workers.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt that critical time, we were forced to register and pay for a card. After wasting time to get the card, we were then told there was no bed after which we were referred to the Federal Medical Center (FMC), Ebute Meta at midnight.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne of them told us that our boy was in a critical condition and they couldn\u2019t admit us without a bed.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you are familiar with Lagos, you will know how unsafe some areas have been lately. While we were in LASUTH, a man ran into the premises saying he was almost robbed<\/a> at the junction when two men pulled a gun at him, so he ran into the hospital. I was scared by his statement and ruminated on how to transport my son to Ebute Meta at this time of the night. However, we summoned courage and drove to FMC.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cOn arrival, they were quick to respond to us but told us that we needed to see a specialist. According to them, the referral note from the previous hospital claimed that our boy had stomach troubles and we needed a paediatrician.<\/p>\n

\u201d 20 minutes after, a surgeon, one Dr Fakunle arrived who was kind and proactive by requesting for an x-ray some medical items which we provided. The result revealed that our boy had intestinal obstruction, that we could have lost him if another minute was wasted.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe attended to our son immediately and passed a tube through his nose to the belly, to clear the obstruction. After this, he assured us that our boy would be fine and the treatment confirmed this. Later, the doctor left and handed it over to a young male nurse Obafemi, and that was when my son\u2019s condition relapsed.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe nurse looked unkempt, appeared nonchalant, and distracted. I asked him the type of medication he was to give my son but he looked at me like I was crazy for asking such a question and muted \u201cdrip.\u201d As he was installing the drip, he was distracted and I was worried.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn less than five minutes, my boy began to scream and shake aggressively and I knew something was wrong. I ran out of the ward screaming, help o, my boy is shaking o, help, where\u2019s the doctor?<\/p>\n

\u201cAt this juncture, I found the Obafemi in the lobby chatting with one of the cleaners and I approached him to have a look at my boy and help find the doctor but he ignored me. I kept begging for his attention but there was no response as he stayed glued to his mobile phone.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy wife then came out screaming, saying that Kehinde was dying. She knelt on the floor begging the nurse to come and check our son. That\u2019s when he responded that the doctor had left and that Kehinde was shaking because the drip was supplying him energy but we did not know what he meant.<\/p>\n

\u201cI asked my wife to return to the ward and stayed with our son while I sort things out. I was making a scene at this point, requesting to see any available matron or doctor but no one responded. They kept saying my boy will be fine. After creating a scene, a nurse volunteered to check my son only to find out that Kehinde had died in his mother\u2019s arms.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe nurse started to apologise, saying he was sorry for ignoring me. I was screaming on top of my voice cursing whosoever was responsible for my predicament.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe death touched me to the extent that I returned to the lobby to tell whoever cared to listen that the governor will hear about this atrocity.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis appeared to have drawn the attention of a matron who came out alongside a man who claimed to be the Public Relations Officer PRO, of the hospital and both pleaded with me but I was upset to discover that these set of people were in the hospital when I was screaming and begging that someone should attend to my son.<\/p>\n

\u201cKehinde and his twin brother would have turned to five in a couple of months but he is gone to be with his creator. I am helpless and want justice on his death because my son did not deserve to die.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want the government to provide answers to the following; Why did the doctor abandon my son after an operation? Why was he left in the hands of an incapable nurse? Why was my cry for help ignored? Why did my son or anyone have to wait for hours or days to access medical treatments?<\/p>\n

\u201cI am calling on the government to investigate this and hold the hospital accountable. Please help me share this message. My son didn\u2019t have to die.\u201d He added.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, efforts to reach the PRO of FMC proved abortive as several calls made to the number given has his line were not answered, Vanguard reports.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
