Celebrity fashion designer, Toyin Lawani, has called out a Lagos based hospital, Euracare, over alleged complications following a surgery at the facility.

The founder of Tiannah Empire called out the hospital on Sunday in a series of posts on her Instagram page.

Narrating her experience, Lawani stated that she visited the private clinic for “spine surgery” but lost the use of her legs and had lung infection after spending almost N100 million at the hospital.

While threatening to sue the hospital when she’s strong, she wrote “Euracare Hospital your cup is finally full, shebi I told you people I don’t have your time yet. Don’t worry just wait for me. I’m coming.

“You go spend close to 100m for hospital & them go still mismanage your health. They thought I was joking when i said i was going to sue, but i said they should just wait first when I’m stronger i will tell my story, Still suffering the consequences from Euracare right now na another thing u go find go there, na another thing dem go carry put for ur hand.

“Till today i still can’t speak well or walk well. I had complications and started bleeding in my lungs. Had to be taken back into the theatre the next day to reoperate again, before i know i stopped breathing, They had to puncture my lungs and destroyed my vocal cords. When i lost the use of my two legs after i was sent home & i ended up back in that hospital again, I had to call the ent doc in UK. He then told them to operate for the 3rd time to take the tracheotomy tube out from my lungs and see if i can breathe myself,

“Wo after that i was on next flight to uk with my family. When i got here,
the doctors told me i had to do another surgery again & said i had infection in my lungs & they showed me the big lumps. Still in hospital in & out till date due to this. They won’t even care if its their mismanagement, you will still pay.”

DAILY POST reports that Lawani broke her silence after renowned author, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, accused the same hospital of negligence that resulted in her son’s death on Wednesday.

Reacting to Chimamanda Adichie’s allegation, the Lagos state government ordered an investigation into the the incident.

The Nigeria Police and former Big Brother Naija star, Leo Da Silva have engaged in a public debate over strategies to combat “one chance” menace and individuals reportedly involved in street-level scams and petty crimes across major Nigerian cities.

On Sunday, Leo Da Silva took to X to express frustration with current police deployment strategies, questioning the effectiveness of roadside checkpoints and suggesting that police efforts would be better focused on bus stops, where “one chance” operators are more active.

“Nothing pisses me off than ‘one chance’. It’s like mini kidnapping, mini banditry. Instead of police mounting useless checkpoints to greet us, why not go to bus stops and investigate these one-chance operators and grab all of them??” he tweeted.

The reality TV star’s comments prompted a response from the Force Public Relations Officer, Benjamin Hundeyin, who emphasized that enforcement strategies must balance action with protecting citizens from harassment.

“I am sure you would come back to complain of police harassment, profiling and unnecessary delays at the bus stops. There are smarter ways.

“Let us start by making moves for 24/7 CCTV coverage of all bus stops. Just in case you’d ask, it isn’t for us to install, but it’ll help us a great deal,” Hundeyin posted, advocating for technological solutions to improve policing while reducing friction with commuters.

Leo Da Silva later clarified that his main concern was ensuring police manpower is prioritised toward directly tackling criminal activity rather than traditional checkpoints.

“I don’t know what your first sentence means, even if that doesn’t affect me, it’s a valid complaint. Instead of deploying unnecessary checkpoints, why not suggest to the force that one chance operators must be caught.”

“Use that manpower to sort that. Abuja and Lagos, especially,” he wrote, highlighting the specific challenges in Nigeria’s capital cities.
