Delta State guber aspirant, Lucky Ohworode Idike has listed 5 strategies through which he intends to tackle the challenges in the Health Care Sector in Delta State.
Idike one of the frontline aspirants under the PDP platform spoke on two of these strategies in a Telecast made available to this medium.
In his words: ” Our first strategy is to grow the economy so that Deltans can earn better, can live better, have better health care and have better immunity to diseases. People wen chop well, dem bodi go strong. Dem go fit fight malaria and other small small diseases, better pass person wen never chop well .”.
He further stated that: ” The second is to focus on Health Care Personnel, the Doctors and other persons who work in the hospitals. Nigeria has produced some of the most brilliant Doctors in the world, but our working conditions are not optimal, which is why many Nigerian Doctors relocate abroad.
“One of the things we will do in Delta State is to improve the working conditions, renumerations and training opportunities for Doctors in Delta State.
“To increase the number of our Doctors; retain the ones we already have and motivate them to deliver world class health care for Deltans.”
“It would be recalled that Delta State has one of the most stable Political Systems in the country due to its rotational arrangements. The Governorship position is rotated between the three Senatorial Districts of Delta North, Delta Central and Delta South.
