The provost who urged the graduands to implore all sense of integrity and responsibility in serving humanity also charged them to allow the discipline, morals and integrity associated with the medical profession to guide them while on the field.

“It is my ultimate charge to you that as you attend to the medical health concerns of patients, you should also see to their total wellbeing by providing the all- round care required to make a wholesome and fulfilled personalities,” he said.

The provost also disclosed that the 9th graduation of 41 medical doctors has brought the number of graduands, inducted and admitted to 357 comprising 289 males and 68 females from 2015 to date after 12 years of stagnation.

Earlier, the Benue State governor Rev. Fr. Alia reiterated the readiness of his administration to support the institution to continue to produce high quality medical personnel to serve the state and country at large.

The governor called on all professional health workers of Benue origin to come home and contribute to the growth of the health institutions, insisting that the precarious state of the health sector in the state was the reason the state government under his watch decided to place all medical doctors on National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) in the state, on a monthly allowance of N100,000 to serve as an incentive for them to stay back after the orientation course to serve the state.
