Borno State Governor, Babagana Umara Zulum, expressed dismay over the lack of electricity and other unfavorable conditions at Gwoza General Hospital during a surprise visit to the facility.

The governor made the unannounced visit at midnight on Saturday, as part of his one-day working visit to Gwoza.

Governor Zulum has a habit of conducting surprise visits to hospitals and schools, even at odd hours, in order to observe the realities on the ground firsthand.

During his latest visit, he inspected the entire hospital, including all the wards, and was disappointed with the state of affairs.

Speaking in frustration, Governor Zulum stated, “It is unacceptable that a critical healthcare facility like this Gwoza General Hospital is deprived of basic amenities such as electricity.

This situation compromises the quality of care provided to patients and hampers the efforts of our dedicated healthcare professionals.

We are not here to trade blame, we are here to find solutions.”Governor Zulum took responsibility for the situation, acknowledging that both himself and the local government authority had failed to address the needs of the hospital.

However, he assured the patients and the public that immediate action would be taken to rectify the situation and improve the working environment.

As a first step, Governor Zulum ordered the immediate commencement of rehabilitation works at Gwoza General Hospital, including the restoration of power supply.

Despite the poor conditions, the governor commended the medical staff for their dedication and announced a reward for their unwavering commitment in the face of challenges.

Governor Zulum concluded, “Insha’Allah, we will fix this, we will make the working environment here better than it is now.”Send a message
