The Police have discovered an illegal hospital operated by a Ghanaian in Mafoluku area of Lagos State.

The man who claimed he came into Nigeria as a nursing tutor in 1982, established the hospital 14 years after.

Upon interrogation, the consultant and operator Hayfore Adu – Peprah, who says he is suffering from hypertension, diabetes and kidney disease could not provide the certificate he claimed to have obtained before operating the private home.
