WATCH THE VIDEO HERE The Rivers State Anti-Quackery Committee, led by Dr Vincent Wachukwu, paid an unscheduled visit to STANDARD MATERNITY CLINIC, No. 2 captain Amangala Street, Borokiri. The investigative visit was in response to media report of the death of Mrs Victoria Paris, who died after a caeserian section in the facility. The Facility is a 3 bedroom apartment converted into a 6 bed maternity run by Mrs Comfort Etuk. Inspection of the facility showed the following: The Director of Medical Services, Dr Vincent Wachukwu revoked registration of the facility and subsequently ordered the immediate closure and sealing off the facility. All health workers including doctors affiliated with the practice were subsequently summoned to MDCN panel. The Chairman, NMA Rivers state Dr Diamond Tamunokuro frowned at the condescending practice of Medical doctors affiliated with and operating in maternities and substandard facility. This exercise is a continuation of the anti-quackery mandate of the Rivers State Ministry of Health and the Nigerian Medical Association, Rivers State and other Healthcare Affiliate Associations in the State. Dr. Hope Avundaa
The facility is registered for maternity services.
