In his eloquent remarks, the Medical Director, Dr. Taiwo Hassan, commended the donor, Hon. Abike Dabiri-Erewa Foundation, thanking the group for the kind gesture which will be of immense use to mothers. Hassan however, called on other well-meaning organisations and indigenes of Ikorodu to emulate Hon. Dabiri-Erewa’s thoughtful gesture by supporting the hospital in its efforts to give their best.

He applauded Hon. Abike Dabiri-Erewa for showing commitment to the health of the mothers and babies, noting the significance of the noble gesture.

“It is still very sad that some people still lose their lives during child birth, because they either don’t have access to medical care or end up in the hands of quacks.

“We will continue do more to reduce maternal mortality through provision of basic healthcare, renew infrastructure and increased human capacity,” Dr. Hassan stated.
