Anambra State is witnessing a healthcare revolution under Governor Chukwuma Soludo, with the official opening of the Specialist Hospital in Fegge, Onitsha. This milestone marks a major leap toward the governor’s commitment to delivering quality, accessible, and affordable healthcare to all residents.
Located in Onitsha South, the state-of-the-art facility is setting a new benchmark for medical care in the region. But this is just the beginning. The hospital is part of a broader initiative that includes the construction of five new general hospitals across Anambra North, reinforcing the administration’s resolve to transform the state’s healthcare landscape.
The #NewAnambraProject is in full gear, driving systemic improvements that will shape the future of healthcare delivery. Governor Soludo has emphasized the need for a collective rise, stating, “Anambra, we rise together!”
Technology-Driven Healthcare Transformation
At the heart of this transformation is the Anambra State Health Facility Monitoring and Accreditation Portal, an innovative platform that allows citizens to access healthcare services seamlessly. This digital solution is streamlining processes, enhancing service delivery, and improving overall efficiency.
Additionally, the Anambra State Primary Health Care Development Agency (ASPHCDA) is spearheading efforts to strengthen primary healthcare services. These efforts are complemented by the Anambra State Health Insurance Agency (ASHIA), which has launched a strategic development plan to expand health insurance coverage and improve the quality of medical services across the state.
Strategic Partnerships for a Healthier Anambra
Commissioner for Health, Dr. Afam Obidike, has been instrumental in advancing this vision, leading strategic discussions with global partners, including the World Health Organization (WHO). These collaborations are key to identifying gaps, enhancing healthcare infrastructure, and ensuring long-term sustainability.
With the Specialist Hospital in Fegge, Onitsha, now operational, Anambra is poised for a healthcare renaissance. Governor Soludo’s administration is not just building hospitals—it is laying the foundation for a robust, inclusive, and sustainable healthcare system.
