Nigerians, especially Lagosians have taken to social media to express their outrage over the death of a medical doctor, Dr. Vwaere Diaso, who was allegedly killed by a faulty elevator at the General Hosipital, Odan, Lagos (popularly known as the Lagos Island General Hospital).
According to reports, Diaso lost her life just two weeks to the completion of her horsemanship at the general hospital.
Diaso, we learnt was severely injured when the faulty lift she entered on the 10th floor of the doctors’ quarters crashed to the ground on Monday night of August 1, 2023.
The report quoted a source as saying that “She completed her medical degree at Babcock University and had just two weeks to completing her housemanship at the General Hospital, Odan, Lagos Island.
“She had entered the elevator at the doctors’ quarters to collect her food from a dispatch rider who was waiting for her downstairs.
She was in the elevator when it cra§hed from the 10th floor to the ground. She was rushed to the emergency ward where she passed away. We have been complaining about this malfunctioning elevator for the past one year and nothing was done about it.
“This incident could have been totally avoided.”
The source further disclosed that “it took about about an hour for responders to get her out of the damaged lift and when they got to the emergency ward, there was allegedly no blood to transfuse into her.”
