    AS Christians celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ, the Governor of Delta State, Senator  Ifeanyi Okowa has challenged Nigerians not to engage solely on merry making but, use the period to assist the less privileged in the society.

     Governor Okowa disclosed this when a medical team from Georgia State University, Atlanta, led by Dr Isioma Okogba, President of the Dr Isioma Okogba Foundation paid him a courtesy visit in Asaba.
    According to reports, the Governor used the occasion to inform the visiting team of what his administration was doing to solve the health challenges of Deltans, disclosing that one such ways was the introduction of the Health Insurance Scheme which will become operational in the month of January, 2017.
   While commending members of the team for their interests in providing health care to the less privileged in the society, Governor Okowa observed that their visit to Delta State would broaden their knowledge about the world and position them for leadership roles in the future.

   Earlier, Dr. Okogba  told the governor that her foundation's efforts to assist the less privileged in terms of healthcare delivery was in line with the  SMART agenda of providing healthcare to the less privileged, especially, those in the rural communities.
