The Lagos government has disputed a claim that Alimosho hospital has only one dialysis machine, according to Premium Times. The publication traced the claim to a video posted on 17 September by Nigerian skit maker and social media influencer Akewusola Oladipupo, popularly known as MC Always. The supplied material does not state what the video alleged beyond the claim concerning the number of dialysis machines at the hospital.
It also does not provide the Lagos government’s account of the hospital’s equipment or explain how officials challenged the claim. No figures for the hospital’s dialysis capacity, details of its machines or information about their operational status are included in the available text. The material likewise does not say whether the video was removed, amended or followed by a response from MC Always.
The dispute therefore concerns the accuracy of a social-media claim about medical equipment at Alimosho hospital. Premium Times identified the origin of the claim and reported that the state government rejected it. Further details, including the government’s supporting evidence and the response of the person who posted the video, were not supplied in the source material.
