Probe Demanded as 11-Month-Old Dies in UATH Emergency Ward
A public affairs analyst has called on President Tinubu and health authorities to investigate alleged negligence at the University of Abuja Teaching Hospital after an 11-month-old baby died in the Emergency Paediatric Unit. He highlighted lapses such as the absence of basic supplies in the in-house pharmacy, repeated disruption of the baby’s drip line, and the unexplained transfer of the critically ill child to another ward. The analyst also accused key hospital officials of absenteeism during the crisis and described the incident as symptomatic of broader administrative failures in tertiary healthcare. He urged a full inquiry by medical regulators and legislative health committees and extended condolences to the bereaved family.
