Mrs. Ifeanyi Chima was one of
Lagos delegates that attended a peace rally organised for women by the
First Lady, Mrs. Patience Jonathan, in Abuja on August 15, 2013.
The vehicle, which Chima and five other
women were travelling in, had an accident at Gwagwalada Road, near
Abuja, when they were going back to Lagos the following day.
Chima and four others were lucky to survive the accident, but....
sustained various degrees of injuries.
Their coordinator, Princess Abigael
Adisa, died in the crash. Until her death, Adisa was the Coordinator of
the Women for Change and Development Initiative in Ifako/Ijaye Local
Government Area of Lagos.
Chima, in an interview with Saturday PUNCH
at the Intensive Care Unit of Primus International Super Specialty
Hospital (popularly known as Indian Hospital) in Karu on Tuesday,
painted a sad picture of how she almost lost her limbs to the accident.
She called on Nigerian doctors to “sit up” like their foreign counterparts and improve on their relationship with patients.
She said, “I was involved in a fatal
accident along Gwagwalada Road after the Women rally in Abuja on our way
back to Lagos. We were six women and a driver in the vehicle; five of
us had injuries. Our coordinator died.
