Decryptor: So much for a University Teaching Hospital. The question is will they have the hands to work with it effectively? I learnt that their indigenous lecturers there are so wack!

U heard right. Most of them r godfather appointed! Otondo dem! Serious tribal sentiments thriving there, even among their own indigenes. The edifice of the teaching hospital is actually beautiful, attractive aesthetically, but inside, very empty. Devoid of equipments. Those displayed in these pics, u find in just a few rooms, scattered here and there. Mtcheeeeeeeeew. All na politics, when present gov, Gab Su-su as he is fondly called, leaves office, d place will go desolate. No b curse oh! Speaking from d Nigerian experience!!!

Yea.......poor or near absent culture of maintenance!

I just want to see 1 MRI machine...

And here is a pic of the medical college

there are good hands managing the teaching hospital. please don't say things out of share hatred directed as some section, try to visit the place and see. if you care to know, the teaching hospital has been accredited and will have there first graduate very soon. mind you, am not from benue.

But with all these, Patience Faka would still fly to Germany to get paracetamol!

This is a teaching hospital? Mhen..... It looks like a primary health care centre!

Why are you guys just posting the pictures of empty buildings? Na buildings be the infrastructures wey una go take treat people?
Kai!

CtgThe bruilding was under construction when I served there and the building looked quite nice from the outside (those who know the real Bsu knows what I'm talking about). They still have a long way to go in meeting up with standards.

Next time do some research before running your mouth. some of you guys are unbelievable commenting on stuff you dont know squat about. FYI heres the accreditation status of the school.

BSUTH Accreditation
The nightmare of pioneering students of the College of health Sciences, Benue State University Makurdi, is now over following the granting of full accreditation to the Benue State University Teaching Hospital (BSUTH) by the Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria.

All is now set for the students to take the practical exams which will pave way for their graduation. The examinations, expected to come up in January 2013, would be taken by both the pioneering students set and the class next to them, to make up 50 students.

Consequently, the Chief Medical Director (CMD) of the hospital, Prof. Abraham Orkurga Malu has expressed gratitude to the state government for the Teaching Hospital which, he said has started yielding benefits. A statement by the Hospital's Head of Public Relations Mr. Cephas Hough, also conveyed the appreciation of the Medical Director to the Management Board and the entire staff of the hospital for working tirelessly towards the successful accreditation of the hospital by the Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria.


Prof. Malu, who stated that the accreditation followed a recent visit by the Nigeria Medical and Dental Council, also stated that the Council expressed satisfaction with the quality of manpower, equipment and facility at the hospital, research and provision of healthcare services to patients.

He expressed delight that, the accreditation had put behind the problem of stagnation of medical students of the Benue State University due to lack of a teaching hospital required for their training.

The first set of medical students was matriculated into the College of Health Sciences, Benue State University, Makurdi in the 2003/2004 academic session.

From this date, the students had put in at least nine years for a course that has a duration of six years.

a good look at the theatre showed a table and just a head lamp. no anaesthetic machine, no gas cylinder or pipeline gas supply. I just wish the patient going to enter that theatre a safe trip to the beyond

BSUTH has very impressive infrastructure & equipments but lack a lot personnel wise. Having said that the efforts put in by the state Govt in building the hospital is very commendable,i visited this hospital about this time last year.kudos to Gov. George Akume & Gabriel Suswam on this.

Symphony007: That is a teaching hospital?....this is a mere rivers state government dental clinic.

i thought you were going to post pictures of the rivers state university teaching hospital for comparism .Comparing apple to oranges tells me all i need to know about you. You dont know what a teaching hospital is.

did you visit the UBTH website to ascertain its capabilities and services before making your assertion or your just jumping to conclusion based on a single picture?

WHATS THIS? A COMMUNITY HEALTH CENTRE?

the rivers state university of science and technology is a tech and science school, they don't offer medicine so a teaching hospital is'nt required...but there is a federal teaching hospital at choba and there is no basis for comparism witj this.

exactly my point.

tellwisdom: Very poor standard ...I cant even treat a bruise there,let alone sleeping there for admission.

and what fact do you base your assertion on? can you expantiate ?

susam is working

Benue state are really trying in the area of education, I personally give them kudos.

The premises gud ooo,but we dnt see d insyd cos dis schl dat they didnt accredit their medice,are u sure they get instrument oo,not the fine fine infrasture matter oo,its how they are equipped.

Hospitals are not run on empty colourful buildings.
The theatre i saw looks depressing.
However, kudos for the good landscaping and serene environment.
The main challenge is equipping the hospital.
A CT, MRI,Radiotherapy, and MODERN theatres etc are the way to go.
Then MANPOWER. The easiest way to kill off the place is to employ just natives cause they will not be able to provide all the expertise esp at this stage. So they need to be liberal.

exactly my point.

which is?
