Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde expresses disappointment in the UK healthcare system following her cousin’s death during the Coronavirus pandemic
Announcing the tragic death of her cousin due to complications following a kidney transplant, Nollywood actress Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde criticized the UK health system for its failure to provide adequate medical care. According to her, the hospital's focus on COVID-19 prevented her cousin from receiving the timely help he needed.
Omotola shared her grief on Twitter, stating;
Yesterday I lost a dear cousin in London. I am in pain. He didn't have Covid-19. He passed away due to complications from a kidney transplant, unable to receive proper healthcare as the hospitals were preoccupied with Covid and assistance didn't reach him promptly. How heart-wrenching.
Smh... Jalad is no more. He departed alone. Jalad was too beloved to depart alone. The UK health system let him down.
