Suleja General Hospital Remodeled With New Facilities
Niger state Governor Abubakar Sani Bello of has inaugurated the remodeled Suleja General Hospital that had not been expanded for 59 years.
The hospital that had been in a dilapidated condition over the years was remodeled and facilities improved upon by the administration in its health rejuvenation programme.
The governor who spoke at the inauguration of the project yesterday said the hospital needed expansion and total rebuilding to allow it serve indigenes as well as other Nigerians living in the state.
“This hospital was built 59 years ago. This means that it needs expansion and complete rebuilding which we have done for the people of Suleja as well as people from various parts of this country.
“This is government’s contribution towards improving the working environment for doctors,” he said and expressed hope that the incoming administration would continue from where he stopped.
“If this exercise continues, hopefully in the next few years, we will have very good, standard hospitals across Niger State,” he added.
He commended the doctors and other health personnel for their hard work.
The commissioner for health, Dr. Muhammad Muhammad Makusidi, said the Suleja General Hospital is 59 years old and had never experienced any form of renovation.
He said the remodeled hospital now has modern equipment, a conducive working environment with qualitative, affordable, and accessible healthcare services.
