By Ekpor Temple
Some Adventist students of Rivers State University (RSU) on Sunday, 27th November 2022 survived a shocking road accident along Elele-Ndele
(East west Road). The Sixteen Adventist Students were returning to the university campus in a Bus from a wedding
ceremony of their final-year member of the fellowship held at Omoku. Witnesses said.
At about 130km from Elele Alimini, the Bus, to avoid crashing into another that braked suddenly, swerved into the bush. Though there was no fatality, some sustain various decree of damages and seven of the student’s as at the time of filing this report lie critical awaiting surgical operation.
A-Media PHC spoke with the Port Harcourt zonal Public Campus Ministry President Prince Iyumame and he explained the situation of the injured students after the unfortunate incident.
“As at 12am
(early hours of today) we moved them from Jodan Specialist Hospital,
Port-Harcourt where they were first admitted to Rivers State University Medical
Centre.
“We thank God no life was lost though
all sustained serious and critical injury that will suspend them from academic
activities within a specific period of time.
He drowsily asseverated.
The Nigeria Association of Adventist Students (NAAS) President, also listed the names of students owned to their critical
condition have been transferred to Braithwaite
Memorial Specialist Hospital (BMH), a
government owned hospital in Port Harcourt were they are receiving intense medical
treatment.
“Those in a critical condition are:
Chibuike Nwokoch, Charity Isreal, Faithful Favour Nyekwere, Gift Amadi, Confidence
Akpati, Juliet Odum, Clinton Ogbonna etc.
He further called on all
humanitarians and well-meaning Adventists to extend their supports to these
students and families at this critical time.
“Please the fellowship needs your assistance
in order to save our brothers and sisters and help them get the required surgeries.
Currently, the
doctors have assessed their injuries and forwarded a bills which amounted to Four
Hundred and seventy thousand Naira (#470,000) which we think their families and
the fellowship alone cannot cater.
1.
Amadi Charity (broken jaw bone) 250,000
2.
Akpati Confidence 110,0000
3.
Chibuike Nwokocha 110,000
The
question begging for answer is, who will help clear this medical bills and save the lives of these
injured Adventist student?
