N600m Hospitals Commissioned in Kwara
Kwara State Governor, Dr. Abdulfatah Ahmed has commissioned two general hospitals in Offa and Omu-Aran in Offa and Irepodun local government areas of the state rehabilitated at a cost of N600m, as part of activities to mark his three years in office.
Ahmed who assured the people of the state that implementation of projects in all sectors will not be influenced by political partisanship but equity and fairness, said the rehabilitation is part of his administration's effort to provide a health system that is modern, affordable and accessible.
“My administration’s strides in the health sector testify to our recognition of quality healthcare as a precondition for sustained human capital development.
"We have demonstrated this commitment through the remodelling of Offa, Ilorin, Omu-Aran, Share and Kaiama General Hospitals as well as the distribution of drugs and equipment to 13 general hospitals and 43 primary healthcare centres”, he said.
The Governor called for greater synergy between the state government and the communities in order to have a state built firmly “on the foundations of equity, justice and inclusive governance; that guarantees all citizens a chance to achieve their highest aspirations subject only to the limits of their capacities”.
The State Commissioner for Health; Alhaji Kayode Abdulissa in his address said the rehabilitated general hospitals have locational value of serving as referral centres for the surrounding primary healthcare centres.
This, according to him, will aid the attainment of the target of Millennium Development Goals, including the reduction of maternal mortality infectious diseases and child death.
