Patients dey fear say dem fit die if nothing for happun (no be actual hospital) De situation bad sotei patients warn management say deh go protest if deh no solve de situation. Bamenda haemodialysis centre di serve patients dem from de whole region and from western region. One of de patients, Nkoso Ephraim, weh na president for pipo weh get treatment for dis centre say deh di suffer too much. "We no di sleep for night, because we bi restless, too much pain, swelling and we fit die any time if we no pass for dis machine". Fon Wamucho, Nurse for Bamenda Haemodialysis Centre say wen kidney stop for work fain, "doty di accumulate and na artificial way, machine di komot waste, and deh di call'am haemodialysis". De best tin na for patient for get 4 hours for machine three taims for one week. Though Cameroon goment di pay for patients dem for dialysis session (100,000) patients di pay 5000 but deh no fit get de three chance for one week.

If machine no di work den patients fit get complications", Fon tok. Kidney stop for work fain, doty di accumulate and na artificial way, machine di komot waste, and deh di call'am haemodialysis For pass for machine only two taims na already under treatment, den for miss two session di complicate tins, e add. Trouble dey wen deh miss two sessions, de bodi di get overload di swell, fluid fit enta dia lungs. Wen potassium accumulate e bi dangerous and if deh no komot'am e di lead to cardiac arrest, Fon tok.
