19 year old Feyisara Odeyinka, an undergraduate
of the Osun State University, department of Anatomy, faculty of Health Sciences,
who is a Sickle cell patient, died yesterday Jan. 24th after a community
hospital in Oke-Baale, allegedly refused to treat her when she could not
provide the N10,000 they asked for before they could begin treatment.
According to her friend, Ajewole T'Wizzy, who
shared the news of her death online, Feyisara fell ill yesterday and was rushed
to a community hospital where the staff there refused to begin treatment
because of her inability to pay N10,000. Read what Ajewole T'Wizzy wrote
below...
Today being one of the
saddest moment of my life.. I lost someone so dear to me, the person of
Odeyinka Ganiyat Feyisara, someone that I just met in a short while thinking we
were going to have a good time together...She was a nice person.. I had the
feeling that she was going to be one of the best female friends I ever had..
All my hopes were cut short when the news got to me that she died this morning
after a mild sickness and the community hospital refused to begin treatments on
her due to lack of funds which her parents could sort out after the whole
treatment ...Mere looking at it, they requested for just 10 thousand
naira(#10,000) which I myself could afford at that moment...But I wasnt there
for her, i got there just too late..#sobs..They didnt begin treatment on her .
They just recommended some experimental drugs for her which ended up as an over
dose, and lead to constipation...and i lost her, ..Odeyinka Ganiyat Feyisara..
I am so sorry i wasnt there when you needed me the most...I can never forget you...RIP..May
your soul rest in perfect peace...
