The federal government has said the National Lottery Trust Fund (NLTF) has revitalised more than 40 healthcare facilities across Nigeria’s six geo-political zones within two years.

Intergovernmental Affairs, Senator George Akume, confirmed this during the official inauguration and hand-over of vital medical equipment to the General Hospital, Igbora, Oyo state, recently.
Akume, who expressed satisfaction over the remarkable progress made by the NLTF, said the agency had done very well in the implementation of intervention programmes in health and other key developmental sectors.
”The federal government is impressed with the agency’s resolve to deliver life-changing outcomes to the people through its interventions, in spite of the dwindling global economy and the agency’s meager income.
”Government is aware of your revitalisation of over 40 healthcare facilities across the six geopolitical zones within the last two years, putting smiles on the faces of ordinary Nigerians in remote villages and communities,’’ Akume said.
He charged the agency to extend the laudable interventions to other primary healthcare centres across the country.
