Sequel to the inclusion of the Harmony Advanced Diagnostic Centre, Ilorin, among the health facilities to be upgraded across the country by the federal government, Kwara state APC has called Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq a patriot submitting that history will remember him.
In a statement made available to Team@orientactualmags.com on Saturday by its state Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Folaranmi Aro, Kwara state APC said the governor ,who is also the chairman of the Nigeria Governors’ Forum (NGF), has done the right thing by pushing for the upgrade of the health facility in question despite being an inherited project thereby saving it from extinction.
The party alleged that the said health facility was billed to fail like ‘many of their other legacy projects’ including Cargo terminals, Shonga Farm Holdings, and water reticulation allegedly due to pervasive corruption and greed.
‘The inclusion of HADC for upgrading is a plus to the current administration in the state. It has further gotten Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq recognized as a patriot who has placed humanity above politics. The governor would never let any project go to rots because he values public funds and prioritizes the welfare of the people.
This distinct selflessness was one of the reasons the people trust and respect him as their leader. It is also a reminder of why the PDP have now been rejected in two election cycles and they can’t be trusted with power ever again. They are unrepentant abusers of privilege.
The government is patriotically making that place a hub of medical diagnosis. The same complex is housing the Cancer Centre which this administration attracted’ he said.
. Choosing the facility for the planned upgrade was according to the party at the instance of the governor.
‘Kwara PDP may be shameless that majority of their legacy projects crumbled and were buried even in the life of the dynasty. What Kwarans will not accept is an attempt to rewrite the history and ungratefulness to the man who is cleaning up their mess.
Governor AbdulRazaq-led administration inherited collapsed machines and backlogs of obligations at the diagnostic centre. For its revitalization funds were made available to procure new machines as well as repair some existing ones at both the laboratory and radiological sections of the centre. The list of machines included Auto Chemistry Analyser, FIA Meter Plus, 2-Channel Coagulation Analyser, Electrolyte Analyser, Haematology Analyser (5-part), and Electrophoretic Machine. The CT Scan 16 Slice Machine and Mammography Machine, Fluoroscopy Machine, X-ray Machine and Ultrasound Machine were all repaired. On top of these, the outstanding salaries of staff during the operational downtime of the centre were also cleared all in a bid to save another mismanaged public facility from extinction’ the statement added.
While thanking President Bola Tinubu for the positive collaboration with the current administration in the state, Aro said the new investment by the federal government at the diagnostic centre complements the renewed efforts of the AbdulRazaq administration to deepen access to health and affordable healthcare services for people of the state-Team@orientactualmags.com
