Makoko Floating Clinic Demolished

We lost our floating clinic due to ongoing demolition in Makoko settlement. On the bright side the doctors have transferred their efforts to in-country missions targeting remote communities lacking medical services. Here is link to an article describing the plight of people living in Makoko http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/07/27/nigerias-floating-slum-targeted_n_1709481.html
