Ikpeazu: Abia Gives ₦500, Delivery Packs To Women Who Deliver In PHCs by Trumann: 11:53pm On Nov 24, 2021
Governor Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia State has said the state gives N500 to pregnant women who deliver at primary health care facilities in the state.

The governor spoke during Channels TV’s Sunrise Daily on Wednesday.

“Abia State has keyed into the basic health insurance for pregnant women. If you give birth in any of our centres, you get N500,” Mr Ikpeazu said.

“Delivery is free, they give you a delivery pack and N500, which is running for the vulnerable members of the society.”


Asked what the N500 could do for the women, the governor said “free delivery, are you asking a poor woman, what will she do with N500? Some people don’t have it.” “At least it will pay their way back home.”

According to the Abia State Strategy Health Development Plan, there are 687 primary health care centres across the 17 Local Government Areas in the state. The governor said the state operates a free delivery policy and a N500 take-home package as an initiative of the basic health insurance for pregnant women.

Doctors’ strike
Resident doctors in Abia State have been on strike following the non-payment of their salaries for 22 months. Last month, the Joint Action Committee of the Abia State University Teaching Hospital (ABSUTH) shut down operations at the hospital. The state-owned polytechnic is also on strike.

According to the governor, the Abia State polytechnic and Abia State University Teaching Hospital are “revenue yielding entities,” which are suffering managerial shortfalls.

He said the polytechnic had a capacity of 15,000 students, which should provide the institution with N3bn annually, a fund enough for the institution to manage itself. Mr Ikpeazu said that he would only pay subvention, which is only for research and infrastructure.

See them, paupers of Alaigbo.

Awolowo gave you 20 Pounds. Your Governors give you less than that and you are rejoicing, yet you ingrates insult Awolowo.

If I were Awolowo, you will collect Yoruba tribal marks on your cheeks and I will collect one of your testicles as collateral before I give you 20 pounds.

Abia state should be declared bankrupt and be added to Imo state. What's update on the substandard ikpeazu Bridge? Is it going to join abandon engineering on DSTV channel 136?

As Pa Awo didn’t give us afonja tribal marks, you can advice Tinubu to continue from where he stopped.

But this is actually commendable, from what I read there pregnant women are delivered free of charge given a delivery pack and still given some money(forget the amount)

Other government hospital in other states I know pregnant women are charged nothing less than 40k for delivery in addition with other expenses like buying drugs.

Tribalism aside, and going by Nigerian standard this is commendable.
