Default Re: .Nigerian Laid to rest in Hungary



The explanation given as to the cause of Mr Oguntunwase is not tenable. A patient who has an alleged mental illness should not have to die on a psych unit. If anything, a psychiatric unit is the safest place for a person presenting with psychotic symptoms. Properly trained professionals should have been able to use medications and passive restraint to keep Mr Oguntunwase from harming himself or harming other people. I don't know much about how much lack of professionalism and/or racism played into how this young man was treated. What I know is another Nigerian has met an untimely death in a foreign land under mysterious circumstances. How many more of these forced exiles will die sudden, lonely and violent deaths away from home? Nigeria flows with milk and honey, yet the greedy and the grasping deny our youth opportunities to basic amenities and send them to forage in places like Budapest. O ma se o.
