Feb 5, 2016 – Pictures: Nigerian Doctor Shot In The Head By Police During Protest In Imo State In Coma
A peaceful protest by the Imo Chapter of NMA turned bloody yesterday after policemen shot into the midst of doctors who had embarked on a protest to the Government House to lodge their complaint over alleged impunity in Imo State Healthcare sector.
The doctors, accompanied by policemen, had marched peacefully until they got to the Warehouse Junction. But without warning, policemen, who formed a barricade ahead, fired canisters of teargas at the doctors, forcing them to retreat. Dr. Bede Azudialo, a consultant family physician, was shot in the head.
He was immediately rushed to an undisclosed hospital.
Dr. Azudialo has been moved from the emergency unit to the Intensive Care Unit, having lost 1.5 litres of blood.

Oh my God. God will punish those that did this. Now doctors are protesting for their rights the government don’t want to listen to them. After they will be sending their kids abroad for medical care while the country is lacking adequate health care facilities

If I may say” the police man did not go for adequate training. so he needs to go back to the training before he will be qualified to work as a police officer. how could he do such a thing. someone is protesting for his right, you raised up a gun and shot at him. that’s why corruption will never stop in this country. because when somebody tries to reveal the secret, some people who keep the secret within themselves, will be looking for one way or the other, to depress, suppress and to uppress. and not only that, they will try to terminate your life for you. pls I advice that the treatment should be done immediately before it’ll lead to a terrible condition
” I mean “death” thanks!
