Abiodun Nejo, Ado Ekiti
The Ekiti State Governor, Dr Kayode Fayemi, has urged residents of the state to embrace the health insurance scheme of the state to enjoy unhindered access to quality health care services.
The governor lamented finance as a major flaw in the country’s health care system.
Fayemi, who spoke in Ado Ekiti, during the unveiling of the N300m medical equipment donated to the state health care facilities, advised residents to take advantage of the equipment by visiting health care facilities close to them for assured quality service delivery.
The equipment donated by Global Fund under its Resilient and Sustainable System for Health implemented by the Management Sciences for Health, included delivery beds, stethoscopes, drip-stands, cord clamps, weighing scales, episiotomy scissors, outpatient chairs, towels, 5kva solar power inverters, blood pressure and glucose monitors.
