Nigerian comedian I Go Save has called on Nigerian doctors to develop a medical consultation application specifically designed for Nigerians living abroad, particularly those in the United Kingdom. He shared his personal experience, revealing that his daughter suffered from a simple ear infection that allegedly escalated into prolonged pain lasting nearly two years.
Online Help from Nigerian Doctor
According to the comedian, the family eventually sought assistance from a Nigerian doctor through online consultations, which led to significant improvements in his daughter's condition. He emphasized that the progress they have seen since then has been remarkable.
Criticism of UK Medical System
I Go Save also expressed strong criticism of the UK medical system, describing it as “clueless and nonchalant” even when dealing with serious emergency situations. He argued that such an app would bridge the gap for Nigerians abroad who struggle to access timely and effective medical care.
The comedian’s remarks have sparked discussions about the potential of telemedicine and the role of Nigerian healthcare professionals in serving the diaspora community.
