Last week, someone tested positive for covid so I needed to organize his trip to the isolation centre. I called the main NCDC number and they gave me about seven (7) numbers to call for Lagos emergencies. I called these numbers for over an hour.
No one answered. Phones just kept ringing. Two of the numbers kept "number busying" me. I called and called ehn. Finally, after over an hour, one very rude man with terrible tenses answered. I kept thinking to myself, what if it was me who was terribly sick and dying?
What if I was so ill and didn't have enough strength to keep dialling for over an hour? What if my battery died after 20 minutes? These are eMerGENcY numbers.
We eventually had to organize a private ambulance for him sha and paid 250k from Ikeja to Yaba. @NCDCgov you people are a big joke with your foolish incorrect figures because if your people are not answering the phones, how will you get correct figures?
