Rivers State Government will commission its Mother and Child Hospital at Rumuomasi tomorrow.
The 132- Bed Hospital has 50 Delivery Rooms, 6 Modular Operating Theatres, Invitro Fertilization Equipment, Fluoroscopic Equipment and Mamography Equipment.
This is a bold attempt by Governor Nyesom Wike to boost infant and maternal health in the South-South Zone.
Also tomorrow, the foundation stone for Dr. Peter Odili Cancer and Cardiovascular Disease Treatment Centre to be located at Rumuokwuta will be laid.
The Centre, when fully operational will reduce medical tourism in Nigeria.
Both events will have the Minister of Health, Prof. Osagie Ehanire as Special Guest of Honour and Governor Nyesom Wike as Chief Host.
