Angry father deals with doctor over the death of his daughter
An Angry man dealt seriously with a Doctor accusing him of being the cause of the death of his 15-year-old daughter.
An angry father seriously beats a doctor over the death of his 15-year-old daughter at the Federal Medical Center in Abeokuta, Ogun State.
The deceased father accused the hospital staff of the cause of his daughter due to their nonchalant attitudes in giving his daughter proper care.
The hospital’s Public Relations Officer, Segun Orisajo, described how the man used a wooden chair to beat the doctor after learning of the girl’s death, but did not reveal the name of the girl’s father and the doctor who was beaten.

According to him, the baby suffered a severe fever of one month, weight loss of one month, irritability, and loss of head control.
“On complaints by the parents that they were financially challenged, the management waived all the laboratory investigation bills as well as emergency medications”.
“However, at about 12 midnight the baby passed on barely four hours after arriving at the Centre. On hearing about the death of his daughter, her father threw caution to the wind and beat to a pulp the Medical staff who attended to his daughter, citing delay in treatment.
Orisajo described how the centre’s director, Professor Adewale Musa Olomu, expressed sympathy to the girl’s parents over her death.
Musa Olomu described the whole treatment to the doctor as the fourth time all their staff have been beaten over such type of incident.
However, he said such attitudes will not be tolerated again on anyone caught assaulting or with the intention to assault any of his staff, stating that the law will take its full course on anyone found guilty of that.
