Danjuma to unveil Enugu model medical centre for the poor
Health
GENERAL TY Danjuma (Rtd), former defence minister, accompanied by the Enugu State Governor Peter Mbah will inaugurate a multimillion Naira Goodwill Medical Centre in Enugu, the State capital on Tuesday, November 28.
The state-of-the-art model centre located in the Umuchigbo, Iji Nike, Abapka Community in the Enugu East Local Government Area, is fully funded by the TY Danjuma Foundation on the approval of the General.
The GMC project is the brainchild of Prof Uche Amazigo, Nigeria’s renowned pro-poor public health specialist, and one of the few female Africans to have led a specialized UN Agency, overseeing a highly successful multilateral partnership in global health.
The Centre has provision for Maternal and Child Health, General Primary Healthcare, Laboratory, Eye Health, Prevention, and treatment of Communicable Diseases, General Surgical, Accident and Emergency services.
It will also provide opportunity for research and out-reach programmes with Diaspora-based health professionals, free treatment for indigent patients and standard charges for others.
