SEQUEL TO AMAKU GENERAL HOSPITAL MESS by Mkpisi.
After writing the piece on AMAKU TEACHING HOSPITAL Consultation outrageous fees , I receive some unofficial reaction,but from Hospital insiders..
The News as linked

Some of them were saying that 3,000 NAIRA for Government Hospital is very Cheap and questioned how can the management will buy Diesel, pay Sanitation, let me make an expect -
"3000 consultation fee? That’s the cheapest in the whole world. How are they able to pay the high cost of EEDC and diesel/fuel. God bless the management. They must be miracle workers."
Another said and i quote" It's not much, Borromew hospital which is owned by the church is N3500 consultation fee"
Now , let me react.. The Generator provided to Amaku by ANIDS government are lying fallow, as DARKNESS is part of the General ward.
EEDC have disconnected AMAKU from Services because of unsettled bills.
Generators at AMAKU are used in austerity.
Only Private wards are POWERED by Generator, Children Ward, General Ward are in dire darkness.
The Hospital is a glorified Refugee camp.
Billings in the hospital are only determined by accountant ,and it seems they charge as they pleases .
The Bills are outrageous and dehumanizing to say the least.
If only the Governor will visit the Hospital at night on clandestine mode, with no security or convoy or Government Vehicle,he should be shocked to see the concentration camp we have in place of Hospital.
The Governor can even send a patient to them unidentified,just as ordinary patient and see the extortionate bills and non challant attitude of Nurses and sundry workers.
The Governor can make a difference by visiting the Hospital on a very low key, go ward round to see how good or bad the "BIGGEST Hospital" at state Capital is ..and see that most times , it's safer and cheaper to go to Clinic for health matters.
Mkpisi is the Job.
