Attention, Abuja’s Maitama Hospital

-

The laundry workers at the Maitama District Hospital have turned the laundry section of the hospital into a commercial hub where their customers’ clothes appeared to be more important than those meant for the hospital’s use. They collect clothes from people, wash and get paid for the services rendered but ignored the ones meant for the hospital. Many staff of the hospital are also encouragin­g these laundry workers thereby patronizin­g them. It is very unfortunat­e to see things of this kind happen in government owned establishm­ents and those who perpetrate them are encouraged to do more as if it is appropriat­e. These laundry employees should be called to order and those staff patronizin­g them should stop. It is unethical and ungodly.

This is more so when one put into considerat­ion the overall effect of violence on the growth and developmen­t of our society. On part of the citizenry there is no doubt that thousands of lives are lost and properties worth millions of naira are usually destroyed whenever violent conflict occurs, while on the part of government monies meant for developmen­t are regrettabl­y redirected into the maintenanc­e of peace and security and while developmen­t stagnates.
