“As part of our modest effort in the health sector, we have provided a comprehensive healthcare approach encompassing essential medicines, preventive measures, health policy updates, water, sanitation, and hygiene protocols, health treatments, immunization, antenatal and nutrition services, and strengthening healthcare financing. This modest effort of honourable Kabiru is therefore timely.
“Healthcare facilities of this nature are very essential as they provide rudimentary roles in the form of delivery of first-line healthcare to the immediate communities, thereby complementing the roles of the secondary and tertiary healthcare centres.
“I am equally glad to note that in the health sector, Honourable is currently constructing a Complete Ward in Shagari primary healthcare facility here in Gusau and renovation of 3 blocks at the General Hospital Magami.
“I am also informed that he is constructing about 30 blocks of classrooms in GGDSS Damba, GDSS Tsafe, SDP Secondary school Tsafe, GDSS Kucheri, GDSS Kwarenganuwa, GDSS Tsunami, Unguwar Zabarma Primary school Gusau, and GDSS Wanke, among many others. This is in addition to the construction of a standard 250 capacity Computer-Based Test Centre (CBT) in Tsafe.
“Let me therefore use this opportunity to commend Honourable Kabiru Amadu and all like-minded who are complementing the transformation initiative of the government especially as it affects the provision of various empowerment programmes and the provision of critical infrastructure to the residents of the State.
“At this juncture, it is my singular honour and privilege to commission the renovated and expanded Dr. Karima Primary Healthcare Centre, Tudun Wada Gusau, from 10 to 40 beds, which is part of the Constituency Projects of honourable Kabiru Ahmadu Mai Palace for the year 2025.”
Earlier, the lawmaker Mai Palace, thanked Governor Lawal for commissioning the upgraded healthcare facility, equipped with modern equipment.
He said, “Healthcare facilities of this nature play a crucial role in providing first aid to the local community. This motivated my decision to support this initiative, particularly in alignment with Governor Lawal’s six-point agenda.”
