But the management of the hospital has denied the allegation, saying the deceased was brought into the facility seven hours after the accident.
‘How it happened’
Mr Ogbonna said, after about three hours of waiting, “a doctor walked in and referred him to the National Hospital.” “He was taken to a private hospital to obtain the full body scan and when my son, Obinna Emeka, was brought back, it took the hospital medical team close to two hours for documentation before he was taken in for medical attention.”
The management of the National Hospital in a statement signed by its spokesperson, Tayo Haastrup, stated that late Emeka was brought to the hospital’s trauma centre seven hours after the accident. “The National Hospital Abuja ensures that medical services are rendered promptly. Emergencies/Trauma cases are given priority. Our CT scan, MRI and UltraSound machines are always available for in-patients and emergencies.”
