Kwara State Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq on Monday visited the multi-storey Oluremi Tinubu Hospital in Ilorin, the state capital, under construction to assess the quality and its level of progress.
Expressing satisfaction with the work done so far, AbdulRazaq said all the major high-end imaging equipment, such as MRI, CT scan, mammogram, X-rays, and others are already on ground for installation.
“We are counting down to completion. We’re hoping to commission this facility as soon as possible. That’s why we have come to look at the work being done and to make sure we put pressure on the consultants and contractors to be on time,” the Governor told reporters on the sidelines of the inspection visit.
Accompanied by his Special Adviser on Special Duties and DG APC Campaign Council (Central), Alhaji Abdulrazaq Jiddah, the Governor was conducted round the hospital by the Project Manager Craneburg Construction Company, Mohammad Yamout.
“We want to go for the best and maintain the best. The important thing, also, is to be able to attract the best consultants and continue to improve the welfare of doctors and all medical workers,” the Governor added.
“This would be probably the best public hospital in Nigeria. I know Lagos is building the Marsey Hospital, (Marsey Children’s Hospital) but I think ours would surpass that in terms of services.”
