Nigerians have come to the rescue of a nursing mother, Blessing Bassey, and her baby, who for seven months had been sleeping on the floor of one of the wards of Mojol Hospital, Church Street, in the Shasha area of Lagos State.

PUNCH Metro had reported that the 27-year-old was delivered of a baby girl at the hospital through a caesarean section.

The hospital management, however, ordered nurses and doctors to ensure that Blessing did not leave with her baby until the N95,000 balance of their bill was paid.

The Cross River State indigene, who bemoaned her fate, said efforts by her husband to raise the money were abortive.

After the PUNCH’s publication on October 2, 2020, various persons and groups offered to settle the bill.

Among them were Right and Welfare of Traumatised Wives and Youths Initiative, Global Medical Organisation, and others who wanted to remain anonymous.

Blessing, while appreciating PUNCH for the report, said, “If not for the publication, there will be no hope for me and I will still be sleeping on the hospital floor.”

I wonder who gave you a phone?
What do you mean by live within your means?
Do you think anyone anticipates for Caesarean section before it is carried out on you?

You are a foooool because you don’t know if what she has was just money for normal delivery which doesn’t cost much
And health and other reasons made doctors go for C/S you are happy talking nansense because it’s not your sister or family member?

MODIFIED: for those kids quoting me ... things could turn around for anyone at anytime, most times for good most times for bad . Nigeria is not easy
You don’t know her story so don’t conclude she never had contingency plans

Thank God for them.

If only we have cheap health insurance program in place in this nation . . .

She better go do NHIS for future purposes.

GOD BLESS ALL PHILANTHROPIST OUT THERE BOTH THOSE WHO GIVE BIG OR SMALL.

HELP PEOPLE WHILE YOU CAN.

Every Nigerian is a government on its own. Meanwhile, the citizens should also learn to adjust their choices according to their income.

It's mainly for people who are employed.

I do not think she has a job
