Abia to recruit more health workers, plans 35th anniversary

The Abia State Government has announced plans to recruit more health personnel, including medical officers, dental officers, and consultants, both full-time and part-time, as part of ongoing reforms. The state has already hired 742 medical personnel, and the Civil Service Commission will commence recruitment tonight. Governor Alex Otti's health sector reforms have earned Abia recognition as the number one state in healthcare affordability and among the top three in quality healthcare delivery nationwide.

The Ministry of Health has also piloted a digital application called "CYTrack" to identify and track high-risk and teenage pregnancies, which has been successful in monitoring pregnancies up to delivery.
