Nigerian doctors have reacted after a TVC reporter berated healthcare workers for being on strike on the day late gospel artiste, Toluwanisings, slumped and needed medical attention.
Recall that on Wednesday, October 14, the late gospel singer slumped in his home in Ibadan and was rushed to several hospitals but was turned back because the doctors were on strike.
While his demise shocked so many, it sparked the debate on the poor healthcare system in Nigeria. The doctors were on strike demanding better pay and working conditions.
Reacting to the singer’s sudden demise, the TVC reporter, Riyah Abdul, argued that doctors took an oath to save lives and should stick to upholding this oath at all times. She said being a medical professional isn’t only about making money but mostly about saving lives.
She wondered how the striking doctors would feel knowing that the late singer died because they were on strike and were unable to attend to him.
However, some doctors have slammed her for her stance.
