Despite the disconnection by IBEDC, the hospital management said it had made concerted efforts to ensure that the hospital “deliver on our core mandates of clinical services, research and training.

Indeed, many have supported our efforts by their generous donations to the implementation of these efforts.

“We want to use this medium to inform the general public that the said story is untrue, unfounded and malicious.”
