Rep urges health sector’s overhaul 

 

THE Vice Chairman, House of Representatives Committee on Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), Bimbo Daramola, has urged the overhaul of the nation’s health sector.
The lawmaker, who represents Oye/Ikole Federal Constituency at the National Assembly, described as frightening how countless Nigerians lose their lives daily as a result of afflictions suffered from curable diseases.
Daramola, a member of the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) caucus in the House, also posited that the rich should not be blamed for frequent overseas’ trips to seek medical care, saying this would not be the case if government at all levels had been alive to their responsibilities.
The lawmaker spoke yesterday in Oye-Ekiti during the flag-off of the N10 million free medical intervention scheme for the people of his constituency.
