A Nigerian legal practitioner, Adam Muhammed Ndakudu, has narrated how he lost his baby in 2021 after a security man refused to open the gate for them to access a hospital in another street, saying that it was too late.
He said they tried everything to convince the man but he stood his ground. He said the nurse with them even offered the man money but he still refused.
He said when he became fed up, he got aggressive with him and he then opened the gate but the baby never made it to the hospital.
He disclosed this via Twitter on Sunday, August 13, while reacting to a tweet about how residents put gates on roads built by the government.
“One of the reasons I lost my baby in 2021 was because the dirty security man insisted that it was late and refused to open the gate for us to access the hospital in the next street. After much plea that we’re carrying a dying newborn, this guy refused until I came down from the vehicle to change it for him before he opened the gate. Unfortunately, he couldn’t make it to the hospital. The next day, I went to look for him with the aim of breaking his head with a stone. But my friends stopped me,” he said.
