A Nigerian woman based in the United Kingdom has vowed not to return to Nigeria, stating that her decision is based on prevailing medical negligence that sadly led to the loss of her two children.
In an interview with an online personality, the young lady, who is an indigene of Ogun State, was asked if she would accept £200,000 to relocate permanently to Nigeria and never return to the UK. However, she declined the offer, insisting that her decision to leave Nigeria was not financially motivated.
“Unfortunately, I didn’t migrate from Nigeria because of money,” she said Africans& Diaspora
When the interviewer increased the offer successively to £300,000, £500,000 and even £15m, the woman maintained her stance.
“You can’t even pay me enough to go back,” she said.
Asked why she rejected the offers, she disclosed that she had lost two children in Nigeria due to what she described as medical negligence.
“I lost two children to medical negligence. Back to back in two years” she said
The woman declined to provide further details about the incidents, saying recounting the experience would cause her emotional distress.
“I really don’t want to say much on it because I’m just going to break down,” she said.
According to her, healthcare professionals in the UK have expressed disbelief whenever she tells them how her children died.
“Every time I tell them here, to the doctors here, that my children d!ed because of this, they all ask me, ‘Am I joking?’” she added.
The woman further credited the UK’s healthcare system for saving the life of her son, claiming that he might not have survived if he had been born in Nigeria.
“When I had my son, I know my son was. If he was back in Nigeria, he would have d!ed also. But because I had him here, there was medical attention. They did what was needed to be done and he’s fine,” she said while pointing to her son during the interview Africans& Diaspora
