Reps urge FG to declare state of emergency in health sector
ADVERTISEMENTHe said it was estimated that Nigeria has about 39,983 hospitals and clinics as of 2020, with the primary healthcare centres accounting for about 34,000 which is 86 per cent. He, however, said that only 20 per cent of these primary healthcare centres are functional, particularly in rural areas lacking adequate facilities and staffing. He said the lack of medical equipment, drugs, qualified personnel, electrical systems, beds, and road networks had increased the death toll in healthcare centres. He said the Federal and State Health Ministries’ inaccurate representation of primary healthcare centres hindered proper budgeting and access to quality healthcare in rural areas. The House further urged the Federal Ministry of Health, in collaboration with State ministries, LGAs and other stakeholders to establish a task force to eradicate sharp medical malpractice.

The powerful mind!
In fact, what came to my mind was a gay scenario. Moments later, a vague figure began to tell me about that same man. The moment I asked that question, the figure shut down towards me and exited through her right side. – From Oby…What these experiences teach is how powerful the mind (which I believe is the spirit of God in us) is when it comes to guiding us towards what is good for us or protecting us from that which means harm. And when the mind is clean, the spirit of God comes in and does His job.
