Kwara State Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq has procured a 50KVA Solar Inverter for Sobi Specialist Hospital to power most of the hospital units.
The Governor has equally approved the installation of an additional 25KVA solar inverter largely for uninterrupted service delivery in the maternity, accident, and emergency wards.
Dr. Abdulraheem Malik, Executive Secretary of Kwara State Hospitals Management Board, who led the board’s management on an inspection of the solar system, said the solar inverter is presently being tested and will bring much relief to both staff and patients. He added that plans are also in progress to light up the entire Sobi Hospital premises.
Governor AbdulRazaq has also endorsed the provision of an alternative source of power supply in the form of solar inverter as recommended by the management of Kwara State Hospitals Management Board so that all government hospitals can have 24-hour uninterrupted power supply to deliver services to patients.
Lafiagi, Kaiama, Patigi, Okuta, Ilesa-Baruba, Yashikira, and Sobi Specialist have been scheduled for installation.
Recall that Igbaja, Lade, and Centre Igboro’s emergency unit got it last year.
