The Federal Government has commended the transformation of primary healthcare in Enugu State by the Governor Peter Mbah Administration, saying the state was well ahead in repositioning that layer of the healthcare system.
The commendation was given at the weekend by the Executive Director, National Primary Healthcare Development Agency, NHCDA, Dr. Muyi Aina, during a working visit to Governor Mbah at the Government House, Enugu.
“Beyond what I have just said, you have also focused on health workers, which is another big thing. You know that there is a shortage of health workers in the health sector broadly, but also in the primary healthcare system specifically. You are recruiting health workers of different cadres. You should be congratulated for this.
“Encouraged by all of these strides you are making, I would like to also tell you that Enugu State will benefit from the ongoing revitalisation of PHCs. We have completed the assessment of 253 facilities here and from what we found, there are quite a bit of gaps and we also stepped up. Responding, Governor Mbah welcomed the support, noting that FG’s effort to reposition the education system was in sync with his administration’s priorities.
