Oyo To Boost Healthcare With N50bn Endowment fund

Consultant to Oyo State Healthcare Endowment Fund, Dr Bola Olaosebikan said that considering the economic challenges in the country and the fact that healthcare delivery requires a substantial amount of money, informed the state government’s decision to raise N50 billion through the support of individuals, local and international organisations to bridge the gap. He said:

“Governor  Abiola Ajimobi has identified the need to improve hospital infrastructure in the state and he didn’t want to increase the fee for accessing healthcare hence the idea of the Healthcare Endowment Fund which will be launched in July this year,” Olaosebikan said that such novel idea which is the first of its kind in Nigeria will be coordinated by credible Nigerians and it is designed in such a way that it will be sustained beyond Ajimobi administration.
