Buhari inaugurates new “Ayinke House” in Lagos - Premium Times Nigeria

President Muhammadu Buhari on Wednesday in Lagos inaugurated the Institute of Maternal and Child Health , located within the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital , Ikeja.

Aside the Maternity, the president will inaugurate other projects including the Lagos Theatre, Oshodi Transport Interchange and International Airport Road as well as 820 Mass Transit buses. The governor said the hospital, however, later became over-stretched beyond capacity and somehow obsolete, hence, in recognition of the need to sustain Bank-Anthony’s philanthropy, the state government, during the administration of former Governor Babatunde Fashola, awarded the contract for the expansion and reconstruction of the facility.

He said that Ayinke House had also been completely digitalised with state-of-the-art medical equipment as well as information technology services supported by the State Ministry of Science and Technology. While congratulating Mr Buhari on his resounding victory at the recent presidential election, Mr Ambode thanked him for finding time to personally commission Ayinke House and other projects in the state.

“In doing that, we try to find the reasons why; we call it three delays: First delay is due to ignorance, lack of education, especially women in the rural areas, who do not have the knowledge of what is happening. Mr Idris said it cost the government approximately, about N6 billion naira to renovate the Ayinke house including construction, equipment and the information technology system within the building.

Also, the Chief Medical Director, LASUTH, Adetokunbo Fabamwo, a professor, said the government had in 2018 recruited a total of 250 additional staff for the new Ayinke house.
