Senator Donates N200 Million Medical Equipment To 39 Health Centres

The Senator Representing Kaduna South Senatorial District at the Senate, Danjuma Tella La’ah, has distributed medical equipment worth over N200 million to 39 health centres across his constituency.
Speaking while presenting the items to various representatives of benefiting health facilities on Friday at the Turakin Buga Memorial Hospital Kagoro, Kaura Local Government Area, Senator La’ah said the gesture was a demonstration of his concern to improve the health status of his constituents.
Glorifying God for the opportunity given to him to serve, Senator La’ah said presentation of the items was not only a fulfilment of his campaign promises, but it was also aimed at improving the wellbeing of people of the area, in line with global standards and reducing the distance the sick have to travel to access medical care.

He urged those benefiting from the distributed medical equipment to protect them from theft.
