For a true Hero Dr Ameyo Adadevoh

Dr Stella Adadevoh was a patriotic citizen, who was on a life saving mission everyday of her life! 

That was her Job! to save lives first and ask questions later..

Duty called on that fateful day, a Liberian-American, Patrick Sawyer was brought in to first consultants medical centre, and as usual Stella Ameyo made sure the patient was comfortable and got the best care even when the same Sawyer turned around to throw all their care back in their faces .

He denied having contact with any Ebola patients even when he knew his sister had died of it,urinated and spewed blood all over the medical staff caring for him..

Even when Patrick was confirmed to have had Ebola, DR Ameyo stood her ground and ensured the Nigerian government was alerted and never bowed to pressure from the Liberian ambassador to release Sawyer...

By this little act of professionalism, and sheer patriotism,DR Adadevoh saved thousands of lives,saved Nigeria from an epidemic that could have befallen an unprepared and unstable healthcare system.

She fought the disease she contracted on duty, but sadly bowed to its fangs yesterday..

From several testimonials,Dr Adadevoh was a committed physician with a motherly mien and the zeal to always save lives,which she continued to do till she lost her's in the process 

Does she deserve National honours?? I say YES! Her Hospital First Consultants should also be appreciated by the Federal government they saved their as*es!

So far 4 people have died from the Index case which came into Nigeria, A matron,a support nurse,A DR all of First consultants and an Ecowas protocol official who assisted Sawyer on his trip 

Below is a poem written for her by Ace Broadcaster Femi Sowoolu.

Rest in Peace DR AMEYO ADADEVOH

"Too far away

In another space we stay

Imagined reality

Warped realism

A dangerous game we play

Lonesome lives of self deceit

Pretend self belief

Easy to forget

From whence we came

We live the movie

...A tragi-comedy

Of sorts...

Toy soldiers

Tin men

Cartoon characters

With puny hearts

Evil minds

Soiled hands

Tainted souls

And smelly clothes...!

Our angels have fled

Or just die in our hands

Devils in their stead

...But, only the dead

Bury the dead...

She saves

But she dies

Healing hands

Heal no more

A diadem of silky soft petals 

For our heroine

Roses, and Peonies

Violets, and Tulips

Fresh fragrances for Lady Ameyo

Diva exemplar

For she glows

From enchanting lights above

From the bosom of God

A new saint, behold.

Adieu."
