Enugu Govt bans unapproved medical outreaches
Enugu State Government has banned unapproved medical outreaches in the state.
The State Commissioner for Health, Prof. Ikechukwu Obi, made this announcement in a statement issued on Saturday in Enugu.
Obi said that individuals and organisations intending to engage in medical services, including other health outreaches, should apply and obtain permit from the ministry.
According to him, the ban was in line with Governor Peter Mbah’s efforts at ensuring the safety and wellbeing of the people of the state.
He further stated that investigations reveal that some of the products used for medical outreaches are either expired or nearing their expiration date, adding that it had led to health complications of beneficiaries of such outreaches.
Obi also said the ministry was concerned about the qualifications of practitioners usually engaged for the job.
“Any medical outreach in the state must be conducted by qualified professionals who can diagnose and prescribe the right treatments.
“The Enugu State Ministry of Health has noticed with dismay that some organisations offer medical and health outreach services in the state without the approval of the ministry.
“Henceforth, any form of medical outreach and other health services either by public or private health institutions in the state must get an approval from the State Ministry of Health.
“This is necessary to ensure that the medical services are carried out by certified professionals, using appropriate medical equipment and products, while following standard operating procedure,” he said.

NASS does not need to study Tinubu’s tax bills before rejecting them – Ndume
The Borno South senator, Ali Ndume says the National Assembly does not need to study the tax reform bills sent by President Bola Tinubu before rejecting them.
DAILY POST recalls that in October, Tinubu asked the National Assembly to consider and pass four Tax Reform Bills, including the Nigeria Tax Bill, the Tax Administration Bill, and the Joint Revenue Board Establishment Bill.
The Northern States Governors Forum, NSGF, opposed the bills, while the National Economic Council, NEC, urged the President to withdraw them for further consultations.
However, Tinubu said the bills would not be withdrawn.
He said the National Assembly could make amendments as they deem necessary.
Speaking on Politics Today, a Channels Television programme, Ndume said he had not studied the tax reform bills.
But he noted that the timing of the bills, considering the economic situation in the country, does not make sense to him.
“I can tell you that it will be dead on arrival. We don’t need to study the bill,” he said.
“The general thing is that Nigerians are not willing to talk, hear or pay any tax now considering the situation we have faced because this is the government of the people.
“Right now, people can’t even afford what to eat. People are struggling to survive.
“Let people live first before you start asking them for tax,” he said.
