Nasarawa: ‘Sack, prosecute them’ – Gov Sule orders over sales of donated items by hospital

Nasarawa State Governor Abdullahi Sule has demanded the firing and prosecution of personnel involved in the sale of donated hospital equipment, following reports of missing medical supplies. The issue came to light when a Nasarawa State House of Assembly member from Umaisha/Ugya Constituency, Ibrahim Abdullahi Sa'ad, alleged that the hospital management had sold orthopaedic mattresses, ceiling and standing fans donated by Sa'ad.

The lawmaker claimed he donated the items to aid patients, but Sule denounced the management's actions as inhumane. Speaking at an event in Lafia, the governor instructed the Commissioner for Health to thoroughly investigate the matter, dismiss and fire the responsible staff members, and subsequently prosecute them.
