He was also found not to be compliant with his medications. He was encouraged to adhere to his medications with antacids  added.

“The next day when he was said to still be febrile and not adhering to the drug regimen, the doctor referred him to the University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital (UNTH), despite his insistence that he was doing good.
