“The state government will soon start the recruitment of doctors, nurses, midwives and other health workers.
“We are committed to recruiting health personnel that will handle our hospitals, primary health care centres, as well as clinics across the state.
“The recruitment becomes necessary in view of the non-recruitment of health workers by immediate past administration in the state.”

The governor appealed to the people of the state to be patient as his administration was determined to provide standard medical services to all.
