Lockdown: Husband treks long distance carrying sick wife to hospital (Video)

Viral video of a young man carrying his sick wife to the hospital due to the total lockdown in Rivers State has sparked reactions from Nigerians.

Due to the total Lockdown in the state, there were no cars/buses on the road so the husband had no choice than to carry his weak wife while trekking.

A good samaritan who saw the man carrying his sick wife as he trekked the long distance was moved to help transport the couple to the hospital.

According to the good samaritan, the outcome would have been fatal if she had not come along to help them get to the hospital.

She wrote;

Watch how this Coronavirus lockdown might be leading to death in Rivers State.The girl you see in the video was almost dying her husband had to carry her on his back for long because there is no vehicle on the road.

She almost fainted on the road, I couldn’t record that part because I’m the only one driving. Had to help them to my hospital. Last time, I saw a more sever case where I still drove them to my hospital free of charge where we gave the girl emergency oxygen she was a second away from death.

God save us in this Rivers State. Many sick people will die at home. If hunger does not kill other sickness will because you can’t go out. God save us in Rivers State.
