Lagos government probes nurses over footage of Rico Swavey’s last moments
The unethical recording of Rico Swavey, a deceased former Big Brother Naija contestant, by individuals who were allegedly hospital nurses has been the subject of an investigation by the Lagos State government.

According to reports, a nurse on duty recorded the former Big Brother Naija housemate as he fought for his life.

The nurses can be heard conversing after an unconscious Rico was put on oxygen while seated in a chair. One pushed them to bring Rico to the bed.

“You people should stop making the video. Somebody is dying, you people are making video”, she scolded her colleagues.

The footage sparked anger on social media, with members of the public demanding a probe. Some share similar experiences of negligence in Nigerian hospitals.

Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Gbenga Omotoso, announced that the authorities had commenced an investigation.

“That hospital is not a government hospital; we have started an investigation into the unprofessional conducts of those who appeared in that video,” Omotoso said.
