As the Speaker earmarked Grade 1 Area
Court Woihyev for renovation.
Speaker of the Benue State House of Assembly, Hon. Hyacinth Aondona Dajoh earlier today directed the construction of an additional block at NKST Primary Health Clinic, Ikpa-Mbatierev to serve as Children's ward.
While on a tour to supervise his ongoing projects, the Speaker was at the health Clinic to check on the patients when he discovered that men and women share a ward with newborn children.
Speaking on the importance of an independent children's ward at the hospital, the Speaker insisted that it's below standard and unacceptable for children and newborn babies to share the same ward with adults. While acknowledging the support and contribution of the Universal Reformed Christian Church to community development, Hon. Dajoh also said the provision of potable water at the hospital is imminent.
He was conducted around the hospital by the medical personnel in Charge, Ms Joyce Shior.
Similarly, Hon. Hyacinth Aondona Dajoh has earmarked the Grade 1 Area Court in Woihyev, Mbakwen Council Ward for immediate renovation. The building is dilapidated and broken with the loof leaking, while furniture in the Courtroom collapsed.
It should be recalled that Hon. Hyacinth Dajoh is constructing a multi-purpose laboratory at Government Secondary School, Ikpa and a traditional council hall for Mbakwen district all in the Mbatierev component of Gboko West State Constituency.
The Speaker urged the contractor to speed up the ongoing projects and the renovation to meet the 100 days target.
The Honourable Speaker was accompanied by the Commissioner designate for Gboko, Hon. Mrs. Joy Ahunde Luga.
