Lagos State Govt to Investigate Hospital Where Rico Swavey was Rushed to

The Lagos state government says it will be investigating the unprofessional conduct of the nurses at a hospital in the state where reality TV star, Patrick Fakoya, aka Rico Swavey, was rushed to shortly after he was involved in a motor accident that later claimed his life.

A 30-second video showing some nurses at a hospital in Lagos State being careless with their duties while Rico was in a critical condition has sparked outrage on social media.

In the clip, Rico Swavey was seen on a chair, while one of the nurses called for help to put him on a stretcher, the others were laid back even as one of them chuckled as he was filming.

Reacting to public outcry after Nigerians widely condemned the video, the Lagos state Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Gbenga Omotoso, said the state government had commenced an investigation.
