Dr. (Mrs.) Sanwo-Olu, speaking during the commissioning, said, the 30-bed Maternal and Child Care Centre and a Couples Clinic at the Orile Agege General Hospital are to further improve antenatal care and child delivery in the Southwestern State.
She said: “This is another effort put in place by the Babajide Sanwo-Olu government to further raise the standard of services rendered in all government-owned hospitals in Lagos. I was also in Orile Agege to commission a Primary Healthcare Centre to increase the accessibility of health services for the people. Mr. Governor will do more to further uplift healthcare in the state if reelected in the forthcoming Gubernatorial election.”
The Orile Agege General Hospital Medical Director, Dr. Sola Pitan, expressed gratitude for the First Lady gracing the event with her presence, also to the Sanwo-Olu administration for “upgrading our maternal centre and antenatal clinic”.
Pitan said: “The Sanwo-Olu administration has done a great job by upgrading our maternal centre and antenatal clinic. This development will enable us to attend to more pregnant women in Orile Agege for a seamless process during and after their delivery. The couples’ clinic will help to address some of the psychological challenges that come with pregnancy and how their spouses can help during the period”.
