A bill seeking to establish the Federal Medical Centre, Ihima, Kogi, has been introduced in the Senate and has passed its first reading. Sponsored by Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, representing Kogi Central, the legislation aims to enhance healthcare services for the benefit of her constituents and the wider community.
This development marks a significant step towards fulfilling Senator Akpoti-Uduaghan’s campaign promises and her commitment to improving healthcare accessibility in the region.
Strategically located in Ihima town, which serves as a major transit point for travelers heading to various parts of the country, the proposed medical centre will not only cater to the local population but also provide critical medical assistance to Nigerians involved in accidents along the Akoko Edo and Akoko Ondo axis, thereby contributing to the overall well-being of the nation.
