Federal Government Commissions Multipurpose Hospital in Abia
The Federal Government has recently commissioned a multi-purpose hospital in Obeaja, Ugwunagbo LGA of Abia State as part of its commitment to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
The hospital, with 100 beds, was initiated during the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari and has been successfully completed under the present administration of President Bola Tinubu.
Abia State Governor, Alex Otti, expressed gratitude to President Tinubu for the completion of the hospital and its transformation into a multi-purpose facility to cater to the diverse health needs of the community.
Governor Otti also assured the public that his administration would take over the management of the hospital, ensuring 24-hour security, providing additional lands for the construction of doctors’ quarters, and establishing a facility management team to ensure high standards of care.
Furthermore, Governor Otti highlighted the significant reduction in maternal mortality rates in Abia State and pledged further efforts to continue this positive trend.
He also emphasized his administration’s commitment to reducing medical tourism expenditures by establishing a medical village.
The Chief Executive Officer of the Abia State Hospital Management Board, Dr. Odochi Azubuike, underscored that the hospital is fully equipped to meet the healthcare needs of mothers and children in the state.
It has been reported that the Ebola virus is rising again and there have been some cases. This has caused fear in many, with talks of different viruses spreading.
Amid this concern, the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) reassured the people that no trace of Ebola has been confirmed in the country, despite the outbreak in Africa.
FAAN shared that they have been on the lookout for travellers who may have symptoms, and so far there is none.
It has been reported that the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board, Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), has finally released the withheld results of 279 students.
It can be recalled that some results were held due to investigations of cheating. Some results proved to have traces of malpractice and were cancelled, but the ones without traces have been released and the students can finally move on.
JAMB also shared additional advice for students that might have not seen theirs: “Candidates whose results have not yet been released are advised to check their status by sending UTMERESULT to 55019 or 66019 using the same phone number used for registration to view their released results.”
It was reported that former Nigerian president Goodluck Jonathan has allegedly purchased a presidential candidate form for the 2027 elections.
It can be noted that Jonathan served as Nigeria’s president from 2010 to 2015.
This information was revealed by Sani Useni, a special assistant who made the claim. Many reacted to the news, with some expressing interest in seeing Jonathan return to power after staying relatively quiet politically since his administration ended.
However, Jonathan has not yet addressed the public or officially shared any presidential ambition.
