Vwaere Diaso: Doctor who died in Lagos hospital elevator crash laid to rest

Dr. Vwaere Diaso, who died in a lift accident on Tuesday, August 1, at the Lagos General Hospital, has been laid to rest.

This was revealed in a series of tweets from her sister, only identified as Ese, on Tuesday.

“Today my sister was buried,” she wrote. The pain my family and I are going through is indescribable. To so many people, Vwaere is just another sad story of how the Nigerian government has and continues to fail its people, but she’s more than that. She was a daughter, granddaughter,sister, girlfriend, friend, niece, and our dockie who worked tirelessly helping people.

“We want her to be remembered as the beautiful, hardworking, loving, selfless, caring and intelligent woman she was.

“Vwaere even though you are no longer physically here with us, you will live on in our hearts. Thank you for all the amazing memories. We will cherish them forever.

“We would like to thank and appreciate every single person that attended her funeral today. Thank you for all the support and well wishes in this difficult time. Vwaere is resting now.”
