Ekiti State Governor, Mr Biodun Oyebanji has urged Ekiti residents to make proper use of government hospitals in their communities for their healthcare needs and justify government’s huge spending on the renovation and equipment of the state hospitals.
The Governor stated this when he received a delegation of leaders from Ifaki Ekiti led by a former Governor of the state, Chief Segun Oni yesterday.
He said his government is currently renovating nine General Hospitals with state- of- the- art equipment and manpower to allow as many people as possible have access to quality and affordable healthcare on offer at the government hospitals.
The Governor in response to the request for an upgrade of the Ifaki General Hospital to a specialist Hospital, said the upgrade of the hospital or any of the general hospitals is predicated on the level of patronage.
