“Pharmacy, A/E, and lab were all closed. In Murtala Muhammad, PCV faulty, blood banking faulty, no auto analyser chemistry and haematology.”
He also met Sheik Muhammed Jidda General Hospital in a sorry state with no doctor at all.
“We all acknowledged the receipt of capitation from KSCHMA this week to the tune of 88 m shared to HMB facilities. We are not compelling anyone to abide by the regulations, but it is a proclaimed and ordained policy that 70% should be for procurement of drugs from DMA, while 30% for improving the services of the facility and 10% cash payments”
Dr. Nagoda made a new rule of engagement that there must be 100% assurance of the quality of service delivery.

Supervision will be intensified till we achieve the desired goals. Be rest assured that executive supervision will not be relented,” he said.
