The newly appointed Commissioner for Health, Enugu State, Professor Emmanuel Obi, has charged health sector workers in the state to intensify efforts in ensuring effective service delivery.
He gave the charge while touring key health agencies in the state with the aim to re-acquaint himself with the inner workings of the state Ministry of Health and its associated bodies.
The commissioner charged health workers to always be punctual, dedicated and renew their commitment to their duties.
The agencies visited were Enugu State Primary Healthcare Development Agency, State Hospitals Management Board, Enugu State Agency for Universal Health Coverage and Enugu State University Teaching Hospital, Parklane.
Prof. Obi explained that the visit would serve as an indication of the government’s resolve to prioritize the health and well-being of its citizens, thus, setting the stage for a future marked by effective and accessible healthcare delivery.
Addressing the management and other health workers in the state, Prof. Obi highlighted the administration’s deep interest in the state’s healthcare system, spanning from primary healthcare to tertiary and specialized healthcare services.
He reminded the state health sector managers of the administration’s driving mantra, ‘Business unusual’, which encapsulates the new approach under the leadership of the state governor, Dr. Peter Mbah.
The commissioner emphasized the government’s unwavering dedication to the well-being of the people of the state and its commitment to translating promises into action.
He outlined the core principles guiding the administration, including transparency, traceability, accountability, disruptive innovation, optimal performance, and participatory monitoring and evaluation which every staff must imbibe.
“This commitment reflects the administration’s determination to ensure that quality healthcare is accessible and available to all corners of the state,” he noted.
