Mr. Dada Eriye, Publisher of Bravo Magazine, Lagos was involved in a serious domestic fire accident as he was fuelling his generator at about 11.30pm on Saturday February 14, 2015.
He was rushed to Lagos State University Teaching Hospital and rejected by the doctors there. They advised he should be taken to Igbobi Orthopaedic Hospital, Lagos. At Igbobi, the hospital said they have just fumigated the hospital, so they cannot admit him. He was then taken to Lagos University Teaching Hospital (LUTH) at about 2.00am Sunday morning. Right at LUTH, they said they have no bed so they couldn’t treat him.
The patient was left for hours unattended to at LUTH. After much begging and crying by those who took him there, the hospital demanded for N250,000 to be paid at that hour before admission. Those who took him there started another round of crying and begging again that they would bring the money when bank opens by Monday morning. Sources revealed he has been unconscious and on life support machine at LUTH since then. He died few minutes ago from Cardiac arrest.
