United Nations, to carry out a medical study in an effort to tackle health
challenges faced by rural dwellers in the state.
Speaking in

Coordinator, AFRIHEALTH Optonet Association, Dr. Uzodinma Adirieje, the State
Governor, represented by the Chief of Staff, Government House, Tam Brisibe,
expressed satisfaction with the organisation’s articulate method of gathering
information on hidden health issues within its areas of operations.
He noted that
the method of selection of the nine Local Government Areas across the three
Senatorial Districts will pave way for the attainment of the intended results.

Oshimilli North, Aniocha North, Ika North East, Okpe, Uvwie, Sapele, Warri
