what do you mean by self inflicted tragedy? Why blaming them instead of the hospital, Where is your good heart


People like you, I always avoid them in my life

Entitlement mentality, you're just a fuul

That is one man's business for Christ sake, he expects to make profits off his business.

You give the owner money?
Your Government give him money or loans to kickoff his business?

Poor rat.

The question I want to ask is this. Where did his wife do her antenatal? Because one of the things you get to know beforehand during antenatal is if surgery will be scheduled or not. You are even given a date where you come in and this date comes a few days before your EDD.

I know emergency surgery does happen sometimes. But it is very rare.

Let's not sugar coat anything. This man was negligent in every way assuming of course his story should be believed.
You obviously didn't read his story.

The man didn't have up to 200k in his . Whatever job was doing wasn't paying him up to that. Any you're talking about antenatal.

That man had no business having a third child cos he could barely feed the ones he already had on ground.

This man just wants to use his wife to cash out. Like you’re trying to rush your wife to the hospital and you are making videos, who does that?

I hear that Dr Adanna , Ohakim’s daughter is now the SSA to the president on women’s healthcare. I hope someone can draw her attention to this. She talked about policy and I appreciate this may be too soon as she just assumed office nevertheless, I do honestly believe that change can be imminent in the Nigeria’s healthcare sector.

Yes. Let them make a policy that any man not having up to N500,000 in his shouldn't try to have a baby . If such man is to have a 3rd child, he should have N1,000,000 or more in his .

Real medical issues like is what you expect the Lawmakers to raise on the floor, not Natasha issues. Because even as we speak now someone is dying someone for same story.

Do those in power read stories like this a all ?
When did lawmakers raise Natasha issue on the floor?

Natasha that carried her own matter for head on senate floor,why can't she champion justice for the woman?

Na to dey pick fight with Akpabio since he knew there plenty of OBI and ATIKU slaves that will give are credence.

I don't think you are fine. It's not your fault it's all because you have a job that is giving you over 200k salary

How many people in Lagos has a job paying more than 120k salary even for Bsc holders

This is reality so stop typing nonsense

Atleast he would have something that will be enough for basic obstetric emergency.

Most times most couples have nothing at all.

Don't you prepare for the due or delivery date ?
Hospital may have been culpable but they shouldn't be totally blamed.
Private hospital are just like every other business ventures struggling with the Nigerian situation.

If we check your background now your great grand father might had 25 children even with only 5 plot of land farming job yet he raised all the children

If you think people must be rich BEFORE having children go and ask those who earn over 500k before having children but their source of income hit a big rock should they return their children back to God since there's no MONEY again

Stop typing nonsense on people's situation you are only covered by grace

Reading through this thread honestly breaks my heart and makes me lose hope in Nigeria. A country where a man loses his wife because he couldn’t afford emergency hospital bills, and instead of comion, people rush to call him irresponsible and useless. Do you know how many families in the North live in worse conditions yet still raise children with whatever little they have? But no one shames them.
We live in a society where people contribute millions to vote for Big Brother Naija housemates, yet when it comes to helping someone in real need, someone desperate and helpless, silence. Mockery. Blame.
If life is good for you today, thank God, but never forget it can all change in a moment. Instead of mocking those who are struggling, try to help. Show empathy. Because tomorrow, it could be you no matter how prepared you think you may be.
It pains me to say this, but many Nigerians especially in the South have become cold, selfish, and shockingly heartless. May God help us all.

Why should a poor man even nurse dubious ideas of bringing children into the world? The idiot couldn't even plan ahead, even the woman did not apply common sense. Private Hospitals are profit first. If you don't work in the hospital, you won't understand how people take, or took advantage of the Health Facility generosity; you know Nigerians are evil people naw. They utilized the hospital's services, then refused to pay. Some will even run away.

After poor man and woman don breed, multiply like rabbits, Dem go begin dey curse der children, dey blame them, blame leaders, blame hardship for their dumb decisions. Fk poor fertile people for stunting the growth of innocent souls. Fk em, fk em, fk em....

Your Grandfather poor , your father poor , you poor but suddenly it's unacceptable for Poor people to have kids .. 10 years ago 500k childbirth was the preserve of hospitals like Reddington , with his 200k he should be able to give birth to his kid

Don't mind the fools calling the man poor. Many of them will have never come to this world if their parents read such comments. Too many evil and heartless people in this country.
