Read Time:1 Minute, 22 Second
Solomon Dalung, a former minister of youth and sports, has bemoaned how a hospital in Plateau State refused to treat him because the entry deposit was not paid.
Dalung claimed that he visited the nameless hospital on Wednesday after becoming ill.
The former minister said on his X account that even though he had his medical records, the hospital would not treat him because he had not yet paid an entry deposit.
The former minister said that he transferred the deposit before receiving medical attention once he eventually became partially conscious again.
“I was ferried into the emergency ward but abandoned for over 4 hrs due to non-payment of admission deposits. Regained partial consciousness later did the transfer of deposit,” the late Friday post reads.
“I was then admitted into the ward and given medical attention. This is the hospital that has my medical records.
“The last medical checkup I did about two months ago was there, but suddenly, I became a stranger because of non-payments of deposits even with the so-called name.
“I took ill on Wednesday, arrived at the hospital & shortly became unconscious after doctor’s interviews. Was ferried into the emergency ward but abandoned for over 4 hrs due to non-payment of admission deposits. Regained partial consciousness later did the transfer of deposit.
“After that, I fell into unconsciousness again for about 7 hours. To God be the glory, I have been discharged after 3 days & recovering. Were it not for partial consciousness to pay the deposits, I would have been Mr. late. Many Nigerians have gone this way. Where is our humanity?”
