A distressing video of former Big Brother Naija housemate Elizabeth Oloruntola, popularly known as Zita, has gone viral on social media, leaving fans deeply worried about her health condition. In the clip, the reality star from Season 10 is seen using a nebulizer, a device that converts liquid medication into a fine mist for inhalation, as she struggles to speak properly.
Zita Cries Over Lack of Ambulance in Lagos
In the recording, Zita is visibly in tears while lamenting the absence of ambulance services in Lagos State. She stated that she had to book a ride herself because she lives alone and there was no emergency medical transport available. The reality star also complained that the vehicle she hired lacked air conditioning, making it even harder for her to breathe during the trip to the hospital.
Fans Express Concern and Pray for Her Recovery
Reacting to the video, many fans expressed their worry and urged those living near Zita to check on her. Several followers noted that she appeared to be experiencing an asthmatic attack and had to rush herself to the hospital without proper emergency support. Many also sent prayers for her speedy recovery.
Some of the reactions include:
- @austinab17: "She had an asthmatic attack, and she had to book a ride to the hospital because there was no ambulance, and the car had no air conditioning, so she was gasping for air on the way to the hospital."
- @obaksolo: "Ah, please she shouldn't show signs of weakness. She will fight through."
- @pretty_trophy: "Get well soon, my love."
- @alutamangali12: "Get well soon, Black Barbie girl. No weapon formed against you shall prosper in Jesus' name."
- @miraclechizobaalaoma: "It is well with you, my dear Zita. May God Almighty heal and keep you safe at all times."
- @anthea_o: "Perhaps she had a respiratory attack, and there's no active ambulance or emergency service, and she lives alone, so in that moment of emergency, she had to literally book a ride herself to the hospital all alone, quite sad."
Healthcare Concerns in Nigeria Highlighted
Zita's ordeal has once again brought to light the poor state of emergency healthcare services in Nigeria. The lack of accessible ambulances and adequate medical infrastructure remains a pressing issue. This incident follows a similar complaint by celebrity barman Cubana Chiefpriest, who recently criticized hospital staff attitudes and vowed to seek medical care abroad due to Nigeria's inadequate healthcare system.
Fans continue to monitor Zita's condition and hope for her full recovery.
