FMC Abeokuta not in crisis -Management


The management of the Federal Medical Centre (FMC) at Idi-Aba, Abeokuta, Ogun State has denied rumours that the centre has been engulfed in crisis.

The clarification follows news being peddled by some bloggers that war and disunity have taken over the hospital.

But the institution's Head of Public Relations, Mr. Segun Orisajo, said on Monday that the centre is at peace and it's services are being rendered uninterrupted.

Orisajo, in a statement in Abeokuta, dispelled what he described as 'make-belief insinuations by authors of the falsehood publications'.

The FMC spokesperson said the management viewed the latest publications as the handiwork of some disgruntled elements, who are hell bent at fanning embers of acrimony and disaffection among the ranks and file of the hospital workforce.

He described, as laughable the news contents of the publications, saying it was rehash of the old issues that have been well trashed by some competent government authorities.

He said, "For clarity purposes, I wish to place on record that the past five years of the present administration in the Centre had been the most peaceful in the sense that no single internal strike by unions or workers has been recorded.

"It is, therefore, unfortunate that the issues being referred to in the publications and interpreted as war or crisis were purely family affairs that had since been amicably resolved.

"Members of the public are hereby enjoined to disregard any publication suggestive of war or crisis in the centre.

"Federal Medical Centre, Abeokuta is peaceful and progressing while patients' satisfaction is at its best under the present administration of Professor Adewale Musa-Olomu."
