"Another area that we will focus this year is the public health with interventions for diseases such as Malaria, tuberculosis, neglected tropical diseases as well as HIV/AIDS.

"This administration is committed to providing effective and efficient health care service delivery to the citizens of the state. The provision of high quality health care service has remained priority of the state government," he added.
