By THE Chief Medical Director of Afe Babalola University Multi-System Hospital (AMSH), Dr Akinola Akinmade, has stated that former President Muhammadu Buhari could have been kept alive if he had received treatment at the Institution’s world-class medical facility.
The CMD, who said this in Ado-Ekiti, over the weekend, while addressing journalists, lamented the persistent trend of medical tourism abroad, especially among the political leaders and the very rush Nigerians, saying it’s high time for governments to bolster healthcare infrastructure, by taking a cue from ABUAD Hospital which has been described as the best equipped hospital in Sub Saharan Africa, with some of the best clinicians in the country.
Akinmade, who exuded confidence in the hospital’s cutting-edge technology and skilled personnel, said the health facility would do everything in its capacity to keep the late President alive and functional.
According to him, there is hardly any tertiary health facility in Nigeria and Africa that is as equipped, or that can boast of the volume of sophisticated medical equipment, including hordes of cross-border personnel that AMSH parade daily.
