“Atinko walked into the ward and asked ‘Madam are you the one managing this patient? Why is this patient’s wound not dressed?” She told him that it is the O and G doctors that do dress the wound.

“These doctors earlier came around a few minutes ago for the dressing but the patient was in the dialysis unit, moreover the dressing pack was not available.

“Dr Atinko started shouting at her saying Madam come and do this patient’s dressing now. Ukamaka Godwin’s relative replied that the doctors in O and G departments said they will be doing the dressing.

“The nurse added that it was the O and G doctors that dressed the wound the previous day, but if he insisted let him the document.

“Instead of documentation he then went close to her and said Madam I said you should go now and do the dressing’, but she told him that this is a medication trolley and besides dressing pack was not available.

“Atinko went ahead and accosted Marvis who was at the point of wheeling a medication trolley out of the ward. The next thing that followed can only be imagined for a horrendous scene in a horror film as he slapped her,” Yusuf said.

The chairman stated that the nurse replied to the doctor by asking him what has she done to warrant the slap and that at that point, the nurse perceived the smell of alcohol from her attacker.
