What he said
The governor voiced his apprehension about the previous state of the hospital into a commercial shopping complex, a development that the governor found disconcerting.
He said”,
- “The hospital is one of the few pediatric hospitals in the country and offers many healthcare delivery services to the public, including maternal healthcare, immunization, research and training.
- “The brief closure of the hospital has caused a lot of hardship to the people; we promised to recover and re-launch it, which we have just achieved.
- “We have given instructions for the immediate deployment of health and administrative personnel to the hospital to commence full operations. This will reduce the burden of healthcare delivery services to the people of the state.”
That’s great.
