Akpabio’s World Class Hospital Opens 6 Months After Launch

The much talked-about “world-class” Akwa Ibom specialist hospital has finally begun operations, six months after it was hurriedly commissioned by former Governor Godswill Akpabio who left office May 29.

The hospital, initially known as the Akwa Ibom 20th Anniversary Hospital, is now officially called Ibom Specialist Hospital.

The hospital became a subject of controversy in September after Mr. Akpabio, now senate minority leader, travelled to the United Kingdom for medical attention after a car accident, abandoning the multibillion naira facility his administration promoted as being of world class standard.

Mr. Akpabio later said the hospital’s takeoff was delayed because foreign doctors billed to work there had not been cleared by the Nigerian Immigration Service to travel to the country.

He said the hospital would start off with 150 expatriates at once.

Some of the doctors are now in the state, and have been deployed to test run equipment at the facility.

About 25 foreign doctors have so far started work at the hospital while about 125 others were still being expected in the country.

It was unclear how many Nigerian doctors would be employed at the new hospital.

On Wednesday, doctors, mostly Indians, were busy carrying out medical examinations on the people who visited the hospital for treatment.

  2. With havin so much content and articles do you ever run into any
    problems of plagorism or copyright violation? My site has a lot
    of unique content I’ve either created myself or outsourced but it looks like a
    lot of it is popping it up all over the internet without my
    permission. Do you know any solutions to help prevent content from being stolen? I’d truly appreciate it.

  3. You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this matter to
    be actually something which I think I would never understand.
    It seems too complicated and extremely broad for
    me. I’m looking forward for your next post, I will try to get the
    hang of it!
