issues, Governor Umo Eno, has donated the sum of N30 million to the management of the University of Uyo Teaching Hospital , Akwa Ibom state.
Eno, commended the management and staff of the UUTH for their commitment to saving the lives of the people, noting that though the hospital is owned by the federal government, by virtue of its location in the state, and the fact that it serves to benefit a greater number of Akwa Ibom people, his administration took the necessary decision to advance the support.
He said the planned renal centre is motivated by increasing cases of renal failure and the huge amount involved in supporting individual operations in foreign facilities, adding that “it would benefit more Akwa Ibom people and even people from beyond the state to have a renal facility in the state and possibly get specialists to manage it while at the same time training Akwa Ibom people.”
