Senior Doctor Collapses and Dies 15 Minutes After Reporting for Duty

Senior Doctor Collapses and Dies 15 Minutes After Reporting for Duty — 1 of 2
1 / 2

I took my mother to Arewa Surgery Hospital in Kano for a 5:00 p.m. appointment with a consultant physician. When we arrived, we were told Dr. Mijinyawa was unavailable and would see Dr. Ibrahim instead. About 6:30 p.m., Dr. Ibrahim arrived shortly after Maghrib prayer. He stepped out of his car, became dizzy and collapsed. Other doctors rushed him to emergency, but he was pronounced dead fifteen minutes later. All the patients waiting for him, most above 80 years old, watched in shock as senior consultants fought to save him. His final words, “La ilaha illallah,” were clearly heard by everyone present. May Allah forgive his shortcomings, accept his last testimony and grant his family the strength to bear this loss. Innalillahi wa inna ilaihir raji’un.

Were there known protocols in place at that hospital for handling sudden staff medical emergencies?

It's odd that Dr. Ibrahim only arrived after Maghrib prayer; scheduling inconsistencies like this raise questions about hospital preparedness.

We can't blame the staff entirely here; hospitals dey face high pressure and sudden crises happen everywhere.

Hospitals should review on-call rosters and emergency response drills regularly to ensure backup doctors arrive without critical delays.
