Namibia: Angry Mob Storm Clinic After Nurse Burns Security Guard

Sibbinda — An angry mob of Sibbinda residents stormed a clinic on Saturday to vent their frustration with one of three nurses on duty after she allegedly scalded a security guard with boiling water.

The nurse is alleged to have caused serious abdominal burns to the security guard who called her to attend to patients awaiting treatment, to which she apparently took offense.
The residents were stopped from entering the clinic by three other security guards who locked the gate. The police were later called to calm the situation and the nurse was whisked away under heavy guard.

The nurse is accused of having poured boiling water on the guard after he called her to attend to patients who had been waiting in a queue to be treated for quite some time.
Describing the attitude of the nurse as awful, the residents noted that the latest incident was the last straw after having endured mistreatment from the nurse for the past two years.
