Nigerian Navy Officer Dies After Punishment by Superior
A tragic incident unfolded at the Nigerian Navy sick bay in Gowon Estate, Ipaja. WO Yusuf MO reported late for duty on May 20, citing health challenges. Her commanding officer, Lt. Commander ST Abashim, insisted she perform extra labour under the hot sun. While on fatigue duty, WO Yusuf became dizzy and her vision blurred. Instead of granting medical attention, her superior ordered her locked in a ward for an hour. When officers returned, WO Yusuf had passed away. Senior naval officers are now investigating the case for negligence. The incident raises serious concerns about the treatment of personnel and the need for proper medical care within the service.
