Ex-Oyo South Senator Balogun Harps On Healthcare Synergy

A former senator who represented Oyo South Senatorial District in the National Assembly, Kola Balogun, has identified synergy among all tiers of government, healthcare providers and partners, as imperative to sustain quality healthcare delivery to Nigerians.
He called on all stakeholders in the health sector to redouble their efforts, saying the present economic challenges posed a serious threat to the investment in infrastructure in the sector.

Speaking at the official launch of Actigraft, the first wound care product that enables healthcare providers to produce in real-time invitro blood clots from a patient’s blood to the site of the chronic wound to initiate and support the body’s natural healing process, in Abuja on Wednesday, Sen. Balogun said the government was poised at addressing the shortage of manpower needs and the issue of disunity among practitioners.
Sen. Balogun called on the federal, state and local governments to continue to be by the side of the people, adding that quality healthcare delivery remains utmost in government’s priorities.

“The federal government is doing its best, the state and local governments must not relent in prioritising infrastructure investment in the health sector. We should not also look away from the public, private partnerships, which I believe will go a long way to address our present challenges,” he stated.
