Asma’u Lawali Bungudu, a nurse who worked at the Ahmed Sani Yariman Bakura Specialist Hospital in Zamfara State, tragically passed away while she was discharging her duties. It was a day like any other when she arrived at the hospital on a Wednesday morning, hale and hearty, to begin her workday. However, a few hours after she resumed her duty post, she was confirmed dead.

According to reports, Asma’u was a diligent worker, and she had already checked the blood pressure of about 30 patients before she complained about feeling unwell. She informed a doctor that she was experiencing a cardiac issue and, shortly after, she collapsed. Despite the efforts of medical personnel, she could not be revived, and she was pronounced dead.
