allegedly removed the kidneys of a patient in a private hospital in
the state. Dr. Sani, the proprietor of Aminchi Clinic in Yakubu Wanka,
Bauchi, was alleged to have removed the two kidneys of one Abubakar
Buba from Bununu, who is currently lying critically ill in hospital on
dialysis. It was gathered that he needs about N7 million for
kidney transplant to survive.
The 23-year-old Abubakar, it was gathered, fell ill and was taken to
the clinic by his parents. His condition was said to have worsened
after the doctor allegedly carried out an operation on him.Father of
the patient, Alhaji Buba, said: "They asked me for N10,000 which they
said was for drugs. After sometime, perhaps they understood that my
son would not survive, I raised alarm. They now asked us to go to
Kano.
"They refused to send us to Bauchi. All my money
finished in Kano on his treatment. "When I could not shoulder the
expenses for the treatment, the hospital wrote to Bauchi Teaching
Hospital to start the treatment."He added that when he came to Bauchi,
the Chief Medical Director, CMD, asked him for money and he told him
that he had no money on him.
"The CMD ordered that they should start giving my son treatment free
of charge before he knows what to do," he added. Culled from vanguard
