A Nigerian lady identified as Ifenkili Coolfrancess on Twitter has alleged that medical practitioners at the Lagos University Teaching Hospital (LUTH) requested for a sum of N1.2million to get tested for coronavirus.
According to the lady, her uncle went to LUTH to have a coronavirus test and they allegedly asked him to pay N1.2m before he can be tested.
“My dad’s cousin went to luth to get tested for corona virus Nd they told him he had to pay 1.2million naira ..lol..we are not ready,”She wrote.
