The president carried the baby and also congratulated the mother and medical personnel on ground for a successful delivery while also promising his administration’s determination to provide quality health care across the country.
The president also used the opportunity to officially commission the Kuchigoro Primary Health Care Centre.
In a twitter message on his twitter handle @NGRPresident, Buhari said:
‘This morning in Abuja I flagged-off one of the cardinal programmes of our Administration – the Revitalization of Primary Health Care Centres
As part of the flag-off I commissioned the Kuchigoro Primary Health Care Centre, renovated as a model PHC, & a demonstration of our vision.
Our vision is to revitalise 10,000 PHC facilities across Nigeria—in phases. In Phase 1 we will deliver 109; one in each Senatorial District’.
