It was a dream come true for the good people of Adadama Ward and the Honorable Commissioner for Health Dr Betta Edu as she completed the renovation, upgrade and equipping of a standard Primary Health Care facility in Adadama. like its always being said 'Charity begins at home', Dr Betta Edu has today proven that, as she unveils one of the best equipped primary health facilities in the State during her visit to Adadama Ward.
Speaking during the commissioning exercise which witnessed
political leaders, thousands of Adadama Youths, Health Workers, Mothers and
Traditional Rulers, Dr Edu expressed her satisfaction as she can now sleep
well. "The renovation of this facility is a dream come true for me as a
couple of years back when i visited the village, i visited this health center
for treatment and i was ashamed and embarrassed with the state of things, there
was no light, no water, no consumables and indeed no life in it at all.
"I took a vow within myself that in my next visit whether
as DG or not, whether in government or not I'll make sure this facility becomes
one of the best and am proud of what has been done here. I thank God Almighty for
using me as a tool to rebirth this facility that will benefit my people and to
Sen. Prof. Ben Ayade for giving me all the needed support and platform."
The facility has indeed undergone a rebirth through the magic
touch of Dr Edu as they now have a running water, the Ayadecare tricycle
ambulance, alumaco windows, standard flash doors, new electronic beds, well
equipped facilities, rest rooms, solar system, offices etc. she has also
assured them of a one year free anti malaria drugs while promising them a free
registration of 1,000 people from Adadama Ward under the Ayade Care Health
Insurance Scheme enrollment as this will subsequently spread to other Wards.
Expressing her joy especially as this giant achievement is been
recorded during her reign as the DG of the CRSPHCDA, Dr Janet Ekpenyong thanked
the Honorable Commissioner for always putting her people into consideration
amidst the very numerous pressure and challenges that comes with her
position/office.
"Adadama community will always rejoice because a particular
righteous Betta is leading them, the show of love and support from this
community to Dr Betta have been massive and indeed laudable. I'll charge you
all to watch out for Betta and Better things in Adadama. Evidently, the health
sector is the most successful and fast growing sector in CRS today all because
of her leadership and support from our father the health pro Governor Sen Ben
Ayade."
Dr Ekpenyong charged them to endeavor to always access care
there and ensure that they guide and protect the facility as if anything goes
bad they'll be the ones to suffer it. High point of the commissioning was the
financial support from the commissioner and her team to a family that was
delivered of a triplet in the health facility showing an excellent performance
from the health workers that were also commended.
