Celebrity fashion designer, Toyin Lawani, has called out a Lagos based hospital, Euracare, over alleged complications following a surgery at the facility.
The founder of Tiannah Empire called out the hospital on Sunday in a series of posts on her Instagram page.
Narrating her experience, Lawani stated that she visited the private clinic for “spine surgery” but lost the use of her legs and had lung infection after spending almost N100 million at the hospital.
While threatening to sue the hospital when she’s strong, she wrote “Euracare Hospital your cup is finally full, shebi I told you people I don’t have your time yet. Don’t worry just wait for me. I’m coming.
“You go spend close to 100m for hospital & them go still mismanage your health. They thought I was joking when i said i was going to sue, but i said they should just wait first when I’m stronger i will tell my story, Still suffering the consequences from Euracare right now na another thing u go find go there, na another thing dem go carry put for ur hand.
“Till today i still can’t speak well or walk well. I had complications and started bleeding in my lungs. Had to be taken back into the theatre the next day to reoperate again, before i know i stopped breathing, They had to puncture my lungs and destroyed my vocal cords. When i lost the use of my two legs after i was sent home & i ended up back in that hospital again, I had to call the ent doc in UK. He then told them to operate for the 3rd time to take the tracheotomy tube out from my lungs and see if i can breathe myself,
“Wo after that i was on next flight to uk with my family. When i got here,
the doctors told me i had to do another surgery again & said i had infection in my lungs & they showed me the big lumps. Still in hospital in & out till date due to this. They won’t even care if its their mismanagement, you will still pay.”
DAILY POST reports that Lawani broke her silence after renowned author, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, accused the same hospital of negligence that resulted in her son’s death on Wednesday.
Reacting to Chimamanda Adichie’s allegation, the Lagos state government ordered an investigation into the the incident.
