ONDO – A group of soldiers numbering about twenty, on January 29th 2014, reportedly stormed the General Hospital, Ore, Odigbo Local Government Area of the state, beating up doctors, nurses and other employees.
It was gathered that the soldiers, whose identities are yet to be known, were aggrieved because the hospital refused to accommodate the corpse of one of their colleagues in the hospital’s morgue the previous Tuesday.
Some of the hospital personnel escaped, while others were beaten severely, sustaining various degrees of injury.
It was learnt that the soldiers brought the corpse on Tuesday evening with the intention of depositing it in the hospital’s morgue, but the hospital management declined, saying there was no space for additional bodies.
