An unnamed Nigerian nurse in the United Kingdom allegedly faced termination from her hospital job after engaging in prayer for an elderly patient, according to online doctor Harvey Olufunmilayo.
The incident, shared through @drolufunmilayo on Thursday, warns Nigerian doctors about refraining from such practices in the UK.
While the claim remains unverified by PUNCH Metro at the time of reporting, Olufunmilayo suggests the nurse was deported for bringing religion into her professional role, deeming it unethical.
The post emphasizes the expectation for healthcare workers to maintain focus on their duties and suggests involving a cleric for any patient-requested religious services.
