The AL-Ihsan Clinic in the Unguwan Rogo community of Jos North LGA, Plateau State, has been shut down by the Department of State Services (DSS) due to allegations of unprofessional conduct following the death of a female patient.
Security operatives took this action following the demise of the woman after undergoing surgery performed by Abdul Lukman, sparking outrage in the area and raising concerns about his medical competence.
Reports indicate that community members lodged complaints with the state’s Ministry of Health and the DSS regarding the alleged unprofessional practices at the clinic, prompting the closure.
According to sources, Abdul Lukman, who is not a qualified medical doctor but has been performing surgical procedures, was the focus of these complaints.
Daily Trust quoted one source, Muhammad Albasu, stating, “The primary reason for sealing the hospital is the alleged quackery activities at the clinic which came to light after a woman’s death following a surgical procedure there.”
