“One of the focus of the current administration of the governor, Siminalayi Fubara is that a lot of attention be placed on primary health care and by extension, secondary health care. So the primary health care centres in our wards and in our communities and then the general hospitals,” she said.
“One of the priorities of this government is to ensure that every community in every ward has a workable primary health care center. What that means is that we are looking to upgrading those that are existing. These are the gaps that have been identified and equipping them to make sure that they can provide basic quality health care services,” she added.
