A Nigerian man has taken to social media to raise concerns about the safety of medications after claiming that his younger brother developed serious kidney complications following treatment for malaria.
The man, identified on X (formerly Twitter) as Dele003, shared an emotional video showing his brother hospitalized and receiving oxygen support while struggling to breathe.
According to him, the health condition began after his brother was given medication for malaria at a hospital.
Expressing his frustration and anger, he alleged that the drug may have contributed to his brother’s kidney problems and condemned the circulation of fake or substandard medications in the country.
Sharing the video online, he wrote:
“This is my little brother. The malaria drug he was given led to his kidney issues.
May God pun#sh every single person involved in manufacturing fake drugs in Nigeria.😭”
