I am worried about poor condition of UCH – Olubadan tells Tinubu

The Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Rasidi Ladoja, has expressed worry over the dire state of the University College Hospital (UCH) in Ibadan. A former governor of Oyo State, Ladoja implored the Federal Government, under President Bola Tinubu, to immediately restore the health institution to its former glory. He shared his concerns during a meeting on Tuesday with Finance Minister Mr. Taiwo Oyedele and Coordinating Minister of Health and Social Welfare Professor Ali Pate, both of whom visited him in Ibadan.

Ladoja highlighted the dismal condition of the hospital, noting a severe lack of medical staff. He seized the opportunity to plead with the Tinubu-led Federal Government to take immediate action to remedy the situation. "I am deeply concerned about the current precarious state of the health facility," he stated. "There is also a critical shortage of medical personnel." He affirmed his appreciation for President Tinubu's past efforts to rejuvenate the hospital.
