There is no law in Nigeria directing hospitals to attend to emergency patient before payment especially in situations where they will need to buy one or two items needed to treat the patient.
Private hospital is most likely a one man business
If they continue to attend to patients without pay, eventually they will run out of business and the hospital will close down.
Initially, G0vt has a role to play here by providing health care insurance for us and in situations like this.
The hospital will go ahead and attend to the patients then G0vt pays for it if the patients doesn’t have the financial capacity to handle it or they will subsidise the payment to make it easy for the patients and their family to meet up.
We know we have a bad G0vt already
But we the citizens too
We are not trying at all

Always praying and hoping that bad things will not happen, but you all forget that it is the good things and the bad things that makes life balanced.
Preparation for good and bad days is very important
We learn everyday
It’s not easy loosing your loved ones in situations like this.
Ignorance of the law is no excuse
