A unhappy Nigerian woman spoke on X about her hospital experience in the UK.
She wrote: “Take care of yourself and try not to fall ill in this country. I almost died in an hospital and still wasn’t attended to. I had to wail like a fresh widow before a nurse attended to me.
“With what my eyes saw at a NHS hospital two days before, I’d rather take a flight to Nigeria to get treated if I fall sick again. Free healthcare, my ass.”
An X user responded : “Same thing happened to me they insisted I continue taking paracetamol for ulcer pain.
And the original writer wrote: “In the same waiting room, this African woman who is due for surgery was told to keep taking ibruprofen for her pain, which went on for 2 months. And now she has developed liver failure, and there is still no surgery slot for her. The woman was crying in pain and had no recourse for her. It was terrible.”
