A corps member who spoke to us on the condition of anonymity said Amadi died due to lack of adequate medical facility at the camp on Thursday.
The source said, “She suffered a fracture during the Man ‘O’ War drill and she was rushed to the clinic here on camp, but there was no medical facility. No X-Ray Machine, no drugs, nothing was there. She had to buy bandages with her own money. There was no doctor; it was the medical students here that were stationed at the clinic.â€
The source stated that the distance of a hospital to the camp is part of what contributed to the unfortunate event.
