Chairman, Ethiope East Local Government Council, Hon. Augustine Ogedegbe has officially commissioned newly acquired medical equipment for Primary Health Centres (PHCs) across the local government area.
Ogedegbe during his recent tour of several PHCs, where he witnessed firsthand the challenges facing the healthcare sector in Ethiope East, on Thursday, pledged to take immediate action to equip the centers with modern medical tools, ensuring that residents receive quality and affordable healthcare services.
“As they say, health is wealth. Last week, I visited various health centers across Ethiope East LGA. What I saw and the complaints from the matrons and workers really touched me. I felt the pain of my people, and as someone elected to serve, I knew I had to act. That’s why I made a promise to improve our health facilities so that every Ethiope East resident can have access to proper medical care,” Hon. Ogedegbe stated.
Speaking also, Okakuro Sunday Ejeromedoghene Onoriode, Director of Protocols to the Delta State Governor, who performed the official commissioning on behalf of the council, commended Hon. Ogedegbe’s leadership and dedication to the well-being of Ethiope East residents.
