 General Hospital Sabon Tasha Reportedly Turning Into 'Luxury Hospital For The Poor' — Kaduna Resident Cries Out, Urges Authorities To Intervene


A Kaduna resident, Precious Stanley, has raised serious concerns over the deteriorating state of General Hospital Sabon Tasha, alleging that the public facility now feels more like a "luxury hospital for the poor" than a government hospital meant to serve the masses.


In a heartfelt statement shared publicly, Stanley highlighted the alarming shift in the hospital’s operations, from affordable public healthcare to what she described as an increasingly commercialized system accessible only to the privileged.


“A hospital meant to be affordable and accessible for the average Nigerian, especially the poor is gradually becoming a place only the privileged can afford,” she said.


She accused some health workers of exploiting the lack of price regulation to demand exorbitant fees for basic procedures, often done unofficially. According to her, minor surgeries now cost tens of thousands of naira, and Caesarean sections run into the hundreds of thousands, putting essential care far beyond the reach of struggling families.


Stanley also pointed to systemic failures, including long wait times to see doctors, disrespectful treatment from administrative staff, and the discreet sale of vaccines that are supposed to be provided free under public health programs.


“What happened to this being a government hospital?” she asked. “Why does it now feel like a business venture with no empathy? Is there no regulatory body watching? No oversight? No compassion?”


Her call is not one of condemnation, she stressed, but a plea for accountability and urgent reform.


“This is not how a system meant to support the masses should operate. I truly hope someone — somewhere — with the power to act, listens. Because the poor don’t have another hospital to turn to,” she concluded.
