Lagos state government shuts down hospital where twin girl died due to wrong blood infusion.

The Lagos State Government has shut down the HJ CLAIROOWEN medical centre where 15-month-old twin girl, Taiye, died during blood transfusion.

According to the parents of the deceased, Dr. Joy had stated she was in need of blood and Oxygen immediately she saw them at the General Hospital, adding that there was no bed space and so, she would refer them to HJ CLAIROOWEN, which turned out to be her private clinic.

Aside the controversy surrounding the referral, there are allegations that blood was infused in the baby without screening and negligence against Dr. Joy and her clinic.

Confirming the closure of the clinic, the Director Public Affairs, Ministry of Health Mrs. Adeola Salako, said the state government will investigate the matter and come out with its findings.

“For the purpose of clarity, it is important to mention that safety of lives and the wellbeing of citizens is of utmost importance to the Lagos State Government and as such the avoidable death of the 15-month-old baby, Taiwo Adetunji is regrettable. We commiserate with the bereaved family and pray that God will comfort and grant them the fortitude to bear the loss.

“Since the report of the unfortunate incidence, the Commissioner for Health, Dr. Jide Idris has ordered investigation into the circumstances that led to the death of the child as well as allegations of patients poaching by doctors from general hospitals to their private clinics.

“It is also worthy to note that the Health Facility Monitoring and Accreditation Agency (HEFAMAA) has shut the private hospital – HJ Clairoowen Medical Centre and Maternity where the child died and investigations are on-going on the operations of the facility whose documents showed that it has not been registered with HEFAMAA or certified for the purpose of health care delivery.

“The ministry will make known its findings in due course and mete out appropriate sanctions to anyone found culpable in the unfortunate incident. We would like to assure citizens of our resolve to continuously address the issue of patient poaching and ensure that residents have unfettered access to quality health care service without exploitation.

“As a government, the wellbeing of citizens is of utmost importance to us and this is the main thrust of our social contract with the people. The Lagos State Government is a responsible and responsive government and we will not rest on our oars to ensure that justice, in this case, is served without let or hindrances.

“In this regard, we advise members of the public not to patronize any health facility not bearing the HEFAMAA logo and to channel complaints and petitions in respect of unprofessional conducts by health care providers or health facilities to the HEFAMAA Office, Room 514 Ministry of Health, Alausa, Ikeja.

“We wish to also note that it is against the norm and highly unethical for General Hospitals or any government health facilities to refer patients or cases to private health facilities. General public are therefore to take note of this and report any health worker or government facility who indulge in this unprofessional act”.

Final words of pilot from the crashed Ethiopian plane revealed

The final words of the pilot of the crashed Ethiopian plane, has been revealed shortly after an inquiry was set up to investigate the crash.

The final words of the pilot of the Ethiopian Airlines plane was “pitch up, pitch-up”, moments before the Boeing 737 Max jetliner crashed and killed 157 passengers. The Wall Street Journal reported that the plane’s final moments, painted a picture of a flight crew that was quickly overwhelmed.

The journal further reported that the plane took off from Addis Ababa on March 10, and ran into trouble almost immediately. First Officer Ahmed Nur Mohammed contacted the control tower and in a crackling transmission reported a “flight control problem,” according to the newspaper, which cited people close to the ongoing investigation. It was further gathered that the tower asked for details, as Captain Yared Getachew tried to climb and correct the glide path.

Two minutes into the flight oscillation became a wild bounce, then a dive. The flight lasted fewer than six minutes. The pilot who urged the other to pitch up was not identified, as all 157 people on board the plane were killed.

A faulty anti-stalling system on the Max is suspected in the disaster, which occurred shortly after takeoff. The Maneuvering Characteristics Augmentation System (MCAS) flight-control feature is also suspected in the crash of a Lion Air Boeing 737 Max in Indonesia last October, according to the BBC

She told the New York Times newspaper:

‘I can’t say I’ve done it by myself. If they’re just talking finances, technically, yes, I don’t have any inherited money. But I have had a lot of help and a huge platform.’

She said: ‘I didn’t expect anything. I did not foresee the future. But [the recognition] feels really good. That’s a nice pat on the back … It’s the power of social media. I had such a strong reach before I was able to start anything.’

Woman pours hot water on neighbor for greeting her husband (Photo)

The Lagos state police command have arrested one Mrs. Josephine, for allegedly dousing her neighbour, Mrs. Blessing Christopher, with hot water for greeting her husband.

According to the victim, she was in the kitchen making dinner when she responded to her neighbour’s husband’s greetings, only for his wife to barge out and warn her to desist from communicating with her husband.

”I responded to his greeting by saying, ‘welcome sir.’ The wife, who heard us, came out from their apartment and warned me never to greet her husband. She said that if I tried it again, she would deal with me.

I asked her when it has become a crime to respond to greetings. She said that I should wait for her. I continued with my cooking. A few minutes later, I saw her with a pot; she was hurriedly moving towards me. Her husband tried to block me from her, but the woman went behind me and poured hot water on my back.”

A week later, Lil Kesh’s song was released. I think they had already used the song before they called us. We have been trying to reach him since then. My lawyer wrote to them stating that we were ready to go to court, but we couldn’t find his office address; so, we had to post the letter on social media. Maybe he thinks I’m an illiterate that cannot do anything.”

#FvckyouChallenge: Singer, Simi apologizes for derogatory tribal marks lyrics

Nigerian singing sensation, Simi, has taken to her social media page to apologize for her derogatory tribal marks lyrics as she did her version of the #FvckyouChallenge.

Her apology comes after she was set under hot fire for talking about people with tribal marks in her cover of the trending #FvckyouChallenge song.

Simi apologizes

Particularly, popular Nigerian face model who clearly has a tribal mark, Adetutu, in her reaction mentioned that Simi’s choice to use the phrase: “sè mo kòlá ní” which literally can be translated from the Yoruba Language as Do I look stupid?, is quite derogatory.

Taking to her social media to clear the air, Simi shared an image on Twitter which reads,

Guys I had to bring down my post cos I used the line “abi o ro bi mo kola ni” (Do you think I have tribal marks?) – which people mean to say “Am I stupid”.
It’s an old Yoruba ‘joke’, but I never acknowledged how insensitive it is. It offended some and I shouldn’t have used it. Lots of unlearning to do. We should remember to be sensitive and emphatic to others,
Also I know the video is all over the place already, but it’s a step in the right direction and I apologize to anyone that was/is offended by it. I only ever mean
well
Also, if you think this is extra, it’s part of the problem. Always letting BS go is how we build the wrong cultures that become hard to shake off.

She further wrote in another Tweet;

I don’t want this to trend for the wrong reasons please. Let’s not only advocate for the things that directly affect us. Lezzz keep it moving. I’ma make many many more lit covers insha Allah. Na the work wey we dey do ☺️?

Drama ensues at the burial of lady allegedly beaten to death by husband (Photos)

Drama ensued at the burial of a Nigerian lady identified as Amarachi Emmanuella who was allegedly beaten to death by her husband last year.

The man was accused of beating his pregnant wife to death, after 19 days of marriage – he was alleged to have assaulted his wife and told her parents that she was sick before death.

He said his pregnant wife died of ‘shortage of blood’ and blood pressure after being rushed to the hospital.

The deceased was buried few days ago in a cemetery amid tight security as the husband refused people from attending the burial event.

Those who came were asked not to enter the cemetery. He reportedly told the family not to come to the burial with more than five people.

The husband also refused to pour sand for the late wife in her grave at the funeral, which sparked concerns among some attendees.

The family of the deceased laid curses at the event and prayed for her killer to be brought to justice.

Adetutu Alabi Blasts Simi For “Degrading People” With Tribal Marks

Beautiful Nigerian Model, Adetutu who got popular for her tribal marks, has taken a swipe at singer Simi for talking about people with tribal marks in her cover of the trending #FvckyouChallange song.

Adetutu, in her reaction mentioned that Simi’s choice to use the phrase: “sè mo kòlá ní” which literally can be translated from the Yoruba Language as Do I look stupid?, is quite derogatory.

She wrote:

I have tribal marks and I really do appreciate it now because it’s my tribal marks and a lifetime heritage. Listening to @symplysimi #fvckyouchallenge reminds me of what I have been hearing ever since I was wise enough to know when people are passing insults to people with tribal marks. Mostly said by some of my Yoruba people, “sè mo kòlá ní” means do I look like an idiot/stupid?

People with tribal marks are not daft or stupid, I don’t care if they have been saying for long but it is not a right thing to say

“I am a living legend” – Singer Kcee boasts

Nigerian singer, Kcee has revealed that frustration almost caused him to quit music – while speaking with Saturday Beats, Kcee said he watched Waje’s emotional video which saw the vocal powerhouse saying she may retire from the music business as it has not been profitable.

Reacting to the video, Kcee said;

I saw Waje’s video and I was touched. I was supposed to say something about it but I was busy with my album project. However, I spoke to a few people about it. The truth is that the industry is a fake one; I am not just talking about the Nigerian music industry, but globally. Everybody is struggling. I have been in this business for 19 years and at every point in time, you have A-list artistes and they are about ten.

On his contribution to the music industry, he said Nigerians need to start regarding him as a living legend.

“Of course I am a living legend if you do not call me that, I would call myself that. I know how the journey has been; it has not been easy. It has been so tough, it has always been up and down but I have been able to move from one generation to another and I have also contributed my quota as an artiste in the industry, so I stand as a legend right now. For me to be in the business for close to two decades is not a joke,” the singer said.
