The management of the Federal Teaching Hospital, Gombe, has paid a “thank you” visit to the management of the National Hydroelectric Power Producing Areas Development Commission (N-HYPPADEC), following the construction of a solar-powered borehole at the hospital.
Leader of the delegation, Abubakar Yerima Ajiya, said the hospital management was surprised by N-HYPPADEC’s swift intervention shortly after a formal request was made.
Mr. Ajiya disclosed that the hospital, which has a capacity of about 400–600 bed spaces, staff quarters, and other office buildings, had been without water supply for months. He added that the facility relied on the unsustainable purchase of water from vendors.
According to him, the intervention by N-HYPPADEC in constructing the borehole has brought significant relief to the hospital. He noted that this prompted the management to send a delegation to formally appreciate the Managing Director, Alhaji Abubakar Sadiq Yelwa (Katukan Yauri).
Receiving the guests on behalf of the Managing Director, the Deputy Director (Finance), Mrs. Ruth Asabe Essien, thanked the delegation for coming all the way to express their appreciation for the intervention.
She assured them that the Commission would continue to provide support in line with its mandate.
She noted that the Commission has continued to enjoy tremendous support from the Gombe State Government and traditional institutions.
