UNIPORT Teaching Hospital (UPTH) has debunked recent report claiming that Burna Boy cleared all patients medical bills during his visit to the hospital.
According to the Hospital, Burna Boy cleared up medical bills of selected patients in the hospital, not all.
In the statement issued by the hospital’s spokesperson, Elabha Meni, who released a statement in Port Harcourt on Friday, June 21, noted that the patients received cash gifts from Burna Boy.
The statement issued by the Hospital reads, “We commend Burna Boy’s kindness in financially assisting select patients in our hospital to offset their bills during his visit on June 11.
“However, contrary to reports stating that all patients’ bills in UPTH were paid during the visit, only selected patients received cash gifts or donations.
“The hospital did not receive direct payments from the musician and his team on behalf of patients to support this worthy course of reducing healthcare costs,” Meni stated.
