several dignitaries including the Oba of Lagos, Oba RilwanAkiolu I noted
that citizens who work at the Primary Health Centre should always
remember that they got the job in order to serve the people who pay
taxes, urging them to do it with courtesy and efficiency.
“Today as we hand over the Iga- Idunganran Primary Health Care Centre,
we expect to see the beginning of a very robust grassroots based
healthcare service. From today, we expect to see the beginning of a
health care service for basic needs like immunization, maternity service
and safe deliveries from normal pregnancies”.

resources and also by monitoring the development here on a frequent
basis and escalating reports to the Ministry of Health”, he added.
