Nwifuru procures new SUVs for Medical Doctors in general hospitals, 2 Ambulances for each hospital.
Governor Francis Nwifuru of Ebonyi State has procured brand new SUVs for each of the medical doctors working in the General Hospitals across the State.
Revealing this on his verified X handle, Leo Oketa, the governor’s media aide said the move was aimed at ensuring that medical doctors work seamlessly and respond to duty calls promptly.
Part of the post reads: “Find below, the SUVs procured by Governor @FrancisNwifuru for all the medical doctors working in the General Hospitals across the State, to ensure they are at work seamlessly and respond to duty calls.
“This in no small measure will give them good confidence and assurance of their welfare, having been employed by the State Government. It is meant as well, to ensure that they do not convert the hospital ambulances to their private cars. All the SUVs have been paid for and all of them delivered”.
Oketa also stated that Gov. Nwifuru procured ambulances for each of the general hospitals at a ratio of one general hospital to two ambulances.
“Talking of ambulances, pictures 3 and 4 show some of the ambulances procured by Ebonyi State Government for the General Hospitals. 52 were paid for, but 20 of them have arrived. The rest will be delivered soon. The Governor intends to have 2 ambulances for each General Hospital in Ebonyi State”.
He further noted that the Governor will deploy them soon, according to his esteemed discretion.
