The media aide to former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, Mr.Paul Ibe has blamed the death of fast-rising Nigerian musician, Ifunanya Nwangene, on poor healthcare facilities in the country.
The Abuja-based musician, a soprano singer with the Amemuso Choir, died on Saturday at the Federal Medical Centre, Abuja, following a snake bite.
Reacting to the unfortunate incident, Ibe said, in a post on his official X handle on Sunday, that ‘Nigeria happened’ to the young woman.
He wondered why such a public hospital in the nation’s capital would not be equipped with snake antivenom.
He wrote: ‘Fast-rising singer Ifunanya Nwangene, 26, was not killed by a snake. She was killed by Nigeria, or as is often said, Nigeria happened to her.
‘To imagine that a public hospital in the Federal Capital Territory does not have snake antivenom, in a supposedly high-burden area for snakebite in Nigeria.
‘Meanwhile, anti-opposition is available in great quantity’.
