The Managing Director of the North East Development Commission, Mohammed Goni Alkali has said that the commission is currently reconstructing the Maiduguri eye and dental hospital to accommodate more patients especially the Internally Displaced Persons in the state.
He noted that the main aim of rehabilitating the hospital is to decongest it so that the victims of the Boko Haram insurgency from the remote areas will have access to eye and dental care. “For the eye and dental hospital, we have told you that, we are going to renovate the whole place and provide some facilities”.
“By the grace of God, during the first quarter of next year, we hope to finish the renovation and give them all the equipment they needed, so that the hospital would be a centre of excellence,” he said.
