There is a pathetic and scary situation at the government owned Obafemi Awolowo University Teaching Hospital (OAUTH) in Ile-Ife as December duty roster revealed that the hospital is seriously understaffed.
The roster which has gone viral on Facebook shows that there is no house officer to work in the hospital for the entire month of December.
According to the roster, only one registrar, Dr. Balogun, has been placed on duty for the whole month, with no other medic available to relieve him.
Hospitals in Nigeria are currently in dire need of medical doctors as most medics have relocated abroad where they are better paid, leaving the medical sector of the country in a sorry state.
