The Special Adviser to the Governor on Health, Dr. Andrew Iyamu, commended the Governor for prioritising investments in the Health Sector. He noted that the administration remains committed to providing the infrastructure, equipment, and institutional support required to improve healthcare delivery and protect the lives of Edo people.
