Dez Mayorz Report.
Massive jubilation in Ndoni as the Rivers State Governor, Sir Siminalayi Fubara commissioned a Primary health center.
The governor lamented the deplorable state of primary health care facilities in Rivers State on his assumption of office which necessitated the urgent attention given to the sector as part of his priority area.
Governor Fubara stated this on Thursday in Ndoni at the commissioning of the Comprehensive Primary Healthcare Centre built and donated by Sir Dr Peter Odili’s PAMO Educational Foundation
The governor emphasized the importance of effective health care delivery to his administration and commended the efforts of Dr. Odili in building the Comprehensive Health Centre with his resources even when he is out of government, describing the effort as a show of love for his people and giving back to society.
Sir Fubara reiterated the target of his administration which is a provision of quality education, healthcare services, and empowerment including agriculture and human capital development
Governor Fubara noted that his administration approved the recruitment of 1000 medical doctors for the Primary Health, Hospital Management Board, and the Rivers State University Teaching Hospital to improve healthcare delivery in the state.
He assured the commitment of his administration to ensure that zonal hospitals in the state are put to use and noted that part of his promise to Mr. President is to work to provide critical services to the people to support his government to succeed, which his administration is currently undertaking
The governor further sent a stern warning to Local Government chairmen in Rivers State working against his administration to see their disloyalty as digging their political pits, as his administration is poised to navigate safely to a successful end while remaining committed to the dispensation of democratic dividends to the people of Rivers people.
Sir Fubara said the tendencies of Some local government Chairmen to deliberately undermine and work against his administration will soon herald their political doom.
He said his government will continue to work in the course that God has ordained for it to make Rivers State better and the people proud at the end.
Speaking at the event, the initiator of the PAMO Educational Foundation and donor of the health facility, Sir Dr. Peter Odili eulogized the uncommon humility of Governor Siminalayi Fubara and his commitment to protecting and defending Rivers people in line with the constitution.
He encouraged the governor to remain focused as he affirmed Governor Fubara was the political leader of the state and that the people were behind him to succeed.
Dr. Odili averred that the 20-bed health center being commissioned was informed by the need to support the State Government’s effort to revive the Primary Health Centres in the state and the lack of such facilities across all Ndoni districts after the flood of 2020, and asked that the government take possession of the facility and run it to the benefit of the people.
In his address, the Executive Secretary of the Rivers State Primary Healthcare Board, Prof. Kinikanwo Green thanked the donor for partnering with the state government to make health services available to the people and pleaded that the governor facilitate the ongoing manpower recruitment in the health sector to enable the board to adequately run the facility.
