THE Kitwe Teaching Hospital (KTH) has recalled for treatment the 16-year-old Newton Mulolo who was attacked by a crocodile on Mindolo stream four months ago
Mulolo, who sought help to get specialist treatment at Sinozam Friendship Hospital (SFH), was recalled by management at KTH on Tuesday, where he is receiving serious attention from a number of medical personnel at the institution.
The plans to take Mulolo to SFH came up after the family felt he was not getting the required attention from KTH where he was initially was just being given days of review as an out-patient case.
But while Mulolo’s family and supporters of Patriotic Front Chimwemwe aspiring candidate Allen Banda Banda were planning to move the boy to the Chinese-run hospital, KTH Senior Medical Superintendent, Abidan Chansa, called Suwilanji Machalo, who was delegated to help the boy.
Ms Machalo explained that Dr Chansa told her to halt their plans of taking the boy to SFH. According to Dr Chansa, KTH had assembl;ed a team of doctors to give treatment to the boy.
Ms Machalo said, with the help from others, they were set to take the boy to SFH, but a phone call came from Dr Chansa to take the boy to his hospital.
“We had decided to seek specialist treatment at Sinozam Friendship Hospital after no positive results were recorded at KTH. But before we could move on, Dr Chansa stopped us and told us to go back to KTH. So this is how our plan to take the boy to SFH was halted.
“It appears he did not know about the condition of the boy and what kind of treatment he was being given during the reviews. He only came to know about it through the media. We pray that God through these doctors and nurses, the boy will recover,” Ms Machalo said
And Zambia Chinese Association (ZCA) Copperbelt Chapter President Wang Xin has so far contributed K15, 000 towards the welfare of the boy.
Mr Wang had on Monday contributed K5, 000 towards the support of the boy before contributing another K10, 000 on Tuesday.
Mulolo was attacked by a crocodile on Mindolo stream four months ago and is confined to a wheel chair and seeking support from well-wishers to enable him walk again and continue with school.
Mulolo, who was a grade six pupil at CCAP in Kwacha Township, was attacked by a crocodile in December when he was coming from school, crossing the Mindolo stream from Kwacha to Chimwemwe East.
