Ebonyi Gov Gifts SUVs To Doctors As Incentives

The approval for the procurement was contained in a release. It stated that Governor Francis Ogbonna Nwifuru endorsed the procurement to ensure that the medical doctors respond to duty calls optimally and with dedication.

The statement was signed by Mr Leo Ekene Oketa, Special Assistant to the Governor on New Media.

It reads in part, “It is meant as well to ensure that they do not convert the hospital ambulances to their private cars. All the SUVs have been paid for and all of them delivered.”

The statement further revealed that the state government also acquired 52 ambulances, with 20 of them already delivered while the remainders would be delivered soon.

According to Mr Oketa, “The governor intends to have two ambulances to each general hospital in the state. Ebonyi State is on the rise, and our chief servant is leaving no stone unturned in that regard. The governor will deploy them soon, according to his esteemed discretion.”
