The Lagos University Teaching Hospital (LUTH) has denied reports that Michael Umoh, a doctor at the health facility, worked for 72 hours before his death.

Viral social media reports claim the doctor had been on call for 72 hours before arriving home on Sunday morning to prepare for church service.

The Association of Resident Doctors (ARD) at the hospital said the doctor slumped after reaching his church.

But in a statement, the LUTH management said the doctor was neither on shift on the day he died nor two days before.

The statement said the narrative making the rounds online is false as the doctor was only on shift four times in September.
