Gov Harps On Adequate Use Of Health Centre

The Oduoha people in Emohua Local Government Area have been urged to make adequate use of the primary health centre located in the  community.

Rivers State Governor, Rt. Hon. Chibuike Amaechi, stated this during the commissioning and handing over of the Oduoha Primary Health Centre

The Governor who was represented by the State Commissioner for Health, Dr. Sampson Parker said the health of the people was paramount and government has the political will and commitment to deliver democratic dividends to the people of the state.

He advised the people not to wait until they fell sick before visiting the health centre but to make out time from their busy schedule to go for regular check-up in order to avert medical complications.

The Governor said women should form groups like the way they do in the churches towards the cleaning of the health centre and particularly thanked the Rumuihiorio family for donating the land in which the health centre is built to government without asking for any form of compensation.

In a vote of thanks on behalf of the community, Chief Chris Oruge who is also the State Chairman of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC), thanked Governor Amaechi for his developmental strides which is unprecedented in the history of the community and pledged the support and loyalty of the Oduoha community to the state government.
