A woman has taken to social media to voice herfrustration over the daily struggle commuters face due to the lack of public transportation.

In a viral video, she revealed that despite arriving at the bus stop as early as 4 a.m. in a bid to beat traffic and get to work on time, she is often met with long queues and no buses in sight.

According to her, the situation is already overwhelming before daybreak, with countless workers waiting endlessly for buses that either arrive very late or do not show up at all.

She questioned why hardworking citizens are forced to leave their homes so early, only to endure the same transportation challenges every day.

In other news… A Nigerian-born nurse, Chimzuruoke Okembunachi, has had her nursing licence revoked in Australia after a tribunal found she repeatedly fell asleep during night shifts at an aged care facility, putting elderly residents at risk.

The NSW Civil and Administrative Tribunal ruled on January 20 that her actions in March 2024 amounted to professional misconduct, leading to the cancellation of her registration.

Okembunachi, 25, had been the only registered nurse on duty during several night shifts at Hardi Aged Care in Guildford, western Sydney, overseeing about 100 residents with the support of assistants-in-nursing.

The tribunal heard that on six nights she slept on duty, resulting in missed medication, including morphine on three occasions. In one instance, she allegedly instructed an unauthorised assistant to administer Panadol to a patient.

Although the tribunal acknowledged her remorse, it ruled that deregistration was necessary, stating her conduct had the potential to endanger patients’ lives. She is barred from applying for a review for at least nine months.
