Health

You may recall that during the administration of the first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine, Bauchi state set a record by reaching up to 84 percent of its eligible population.
The Bala Mohammed administration in Bauchi State launched a major campaign to upgrade the healthcare delivery systems in the State. His administration began with healthcare infrastructure.

And so far, Governor Bala Mohammed has also approved the recruitment of 100 medical doctors and 1,060 medical/paramedical professionals.

Within the first two years of his tenure as governor, 323 primary healthcare centres were either constructed, renovated, upgraded, or fully equipped across the rural communities under the BASG/NSHIP program. Within the same two year period, the Bala Mohammed administration constructed, renovated, upgraded, and fully equipped secondary healthcare centres such as the General Hospitals located across the various local government areas [LGAs] – ranging from the construction of the new General Hospital at Warji, Warji LGA, construction of new General Hospital at Dambam, Dambam LGA, construction of new cottage at Yelwan Duguri, and others spread across the LGAs of Bauchi State.

Working to provide the health sector with the required human resources is what my administration will continue to prioritise.
