The newly appointed Board Chairman of Nnamdi Azikiwe University Teaching Hospital (NAUTH), Hon. Ali Bukar Dalori, has stated that President Bola Tinubu’s administration is making significant investments in the South-East health sector to demonstrate the President’s special interest in the region’s socio-economic development.

Hon. Dalori made this statement during his inaugural visit to NAUTH, where he also highlighted President Tinubu’s commitment to nationwide healthcare investments, according to his media team in Abuja yesterday.

He pledged the administration’s continued support for improving healthcare in the South-East and across Nigeria.

The NAUTH Board Chairman emphasized the Tinubu-led government’s commitment to enhancing healthcare in the South-East, as evident in various people-oriented projects implemented to improve medical services in Anambra State and the region.

Dalori also praised the Minister of Health and Social Welfare, Prof. Muhammad Ali-Pate, for his dedication and support in establishing a modern, state-of-the-art radiodiagnostic center at NAUTH. He noted that once completed, the facility would significantly strengthen efforts to combat various diseases in the region.

During a meeting with hospital staff, Dalori assured them of improved welfare, well-being, and motivation under the current administration.

In his remarks, the Chief Medical Director (CMD) of NAUTH, Prof. Joseph Ugboaja, commended President Tinubu for his commitment to addressing the healthcare needs of Ndi Igbo. He also acknowledged the Coordinating Minister of Health and Social Welfare, Prof. Muhammad Ali-Pate, for driving meaningful improvements in Nigeria’s healthcare delivery.

The CMD highlighted Prof. Pate’s efforts in transforming the country’s medical landscape, shifting the narrative from challenges to progress under the President’s Renewed Hope Agenda. He emphasized that these initiatives aim to position Nigeria alongside global standards in quality healthcare.

Prof. Ugboaja further praised President Tinubu for his substantial support of NAUTH’s mega projects, describing them as a testament to the President’s commitment to Anambra State and the Ndi Igbo community.

Anambra State Governor, Professor Chukwuma Soludo, has said he is sure the candidate of Labour Party (LP), Mr Peter Obi, would lose the 2023 presidential election. Soludo said he would not submit to the bullying of Obi’s supporters, who recently descended on him for addressing issues in the state.

The governor made the comments in a lengthy write-up personally authored, with the title, “History Beckons, and I Will Not Be Silent (Part 1).”

Soludo said Obi was inadvertently making the pathway to victory much easier for the presidential candidate of All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, and at the same time, toying with the destiny of millions of Ndigbo.

But the chief spokesperson for the Labour Party Presidential Campaign, Yunusa Tanko, accused Soludo of being sponsored by some unknown persons to weaken the base of the party in the South-east.

The former CBN governor had been under intense attack for close to a week for dismissing Obi’s investment in the state as amounting to nothing, during a television interview.

Soludo said in the write-up, “My attention has been drawn to some of the tirades on social media following my frank response during an interview on Channels TV regarding the ‘investments’ Mr. Peter Obi claimed to have made with Anambra State revenues.

“Sadly, several of the comments left the issue of the interview to probe or suggest motives, inferred from my response on ‘investment’ that I am opposed to Peter Obi’s ambition and, therefore, committed a ‘crime’ for which the punishment is internecine abuse and harassment, even to my family.

“Everyone knows that I don’t follow the winds or one to succumb to bullies, or shy away from a good fight especially, when weighty matters of principles and future of the people are involved.”

Soludo said he had urged Obi to return to his former party, the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), to actualise his presidential bid. He added that he had always told the LP candidate to his face that he was not capable of winning the 2023 presidential election, especially, under LP, which had neither a councillor nor a local government chairman.

Soludo said Obi was not just his friend, but also his brother, but despite that, they have their political differences.

He stated, “For full disclosure, let me state that Peter Obi and I are not just friends, we call ourselves ‘brothers’. But we have political differences: he left APGA for PDP after his tenure as governor, while I have remained in APGA since 2013.

“During the last two governorship elections in Anambra in 2017 and 2021, he led the PDP campaigns but APGA won landslide in both elections. By the way, in 2016, he visited and proposed that I defect to PDP and contest the 2017 election against the incumbent Willie Obiano, but I declined.

“After my victory in November 2021, he called to congratulate me, as I did to him in 2010. That is the Anambra way: we fight fiercely during campaigns but share drinks at the next social events. After all, it was the Great Zik of Africa, who taught us that in politics, there are no permanent friends or permanent enemies but only permanent interests.”

Arguing that Obi’s presidential bid would only work in favour of Tinubu, Soludo said, “Indeed, if I were Asiwaju Tinubu, I would even give Peter Obi money as someone heading one of the departments of his campaign, because Obi is making Tinubu’s pathway to victory much easier by indirectly pulling down PDP.”

Obi, according to Soludo, would only deplete the votes of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and pave the path for an APC victory.

He stated, “The current fleeting frenzy, if not checked, will cost Ndigbo dearly for years. The South-east has the lowest number of votes of any region, but it is also the only region where the presidential race might be a four-way race (it is a two-way race in the other five regions) thereby, ensuring that our votes won’t count in the making of the next president of Nigeria.
