THREE General Hospitals in Anambra State will be upgraded to specialists hospitals.

The hospitals are located in the three Senatorial zones – Ekwulobia, Onitsha and Enugwu-Ukwu.

Governor Willie Obiano of Anambra State announced this during a political rally at Abagana, Headquarters of Njikoka Local Government Area.

He explained that the upgrade was to enable the hospitals to offer equal health services to every individual; they were among hospitals pencilled down for the health insurance scheme.

“Njikoka had benefited immensely from my administration in various ways, such as appointment, infrastructure and other capital projects.

“Apart from all the major roads we have completed; next year we will commence the construction of inner roads across the communities in the LGA.

“Those roads have been designed and factored in the 2018 budget,” governor added.

Nkem Okeke, the deputy governor, said the present administration had transformed every facet of development simultaneously, ranging from roads – Oye Agu-Ukpo-Abagana roads that linked roads, and other strategic roads in Njikoka LGA.

Rommy Ezeonwuka, member Board of Trustees in APGA, described APGA as “Spirit and Movement that drives the vision and mission of the state’’.

Ezeonwuka called on well-meaning individuals to embrace APGA and express their support to Obiano for continuity.

Pius Nweke, one of the stakeholders in the party and an industrialist, expressed gratitude to the governor for providing security which had encouraged them to invest at home.

Nweke, also the chairman Best Aluminium Industry, urged other capitalists to adopt the “Aku luo uno’’, philosophy to help to create more employment opportunities as well as help to rejuvenate the spirit of creativity in the youth.

Timothy Ifedioramma, the member representing Njikoka 1 constituency in the Anambra State House of Assembly, noted that the governor sustained the tempo of the state’s economy, in spite of economic crunch.

He urged the people to support APGA by voting massively during Nov. 18 Governorship Election.

Victor Umeh, a former national chairman of APGA, noted that no other political party had the requisite administrative experience and pedigree to champion the unity of Igbos.

Umeh said Obiano recorded qualitative results in piloting the affairs of the state positively.
