Sisters true love group international update on our findings concerning health care system in our land.
We visited the maternity ward of the hospital in Okomoko, Etche local government of Rivers state in Nigeria. What we saw was heartbreaking, devastating, scary, emotional, mentally challenging, inhumane, unbelievable, unrealistic, appalling, and health wise, beyond human imagination, very unacceptable by any human being that blood runs through their veins. According to our leaders they are trying their best but yet one tree does not make a forest like my people will say.
This is a GoFundMe campaign we created to solicit for funds globally, no matter how much. Please share it on your walls to save lives. Follow the link to read more and support this project. GOFUNDME LINK
