One of my priorities, when I took office, was to restore the accreditation of our College of Medicine and Health Sciences ABSU, which was revoked due to inadequate facilities and staff welfare. I witnessed the suffering of our students, lecturers, and patients, and I promised to never let it happen again. We invested massively in the renovation and upgrade of the infrastructure, equipment, and personnel of ABSUTH.

I am glad to announce that the College of Medicine and Health Sciences, Abia State University, Uturu has successfully regained full accreditation from the Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria (MDCN) after a period of suspension lasting almost three years. This is a remarkable achievement for our state and it affirms our commitment to deliver quality healthcare and education to our people.

With this accreditation, our medical students can now resume their training at the Abia State University Teaching Hospital (ABSUTH) Aba, with a higher ission quota and a valid accreditation to train house officers. I appreciate the MDCN team led by the Deputy Registrar, Dr. Nnaemeka Nwakanma, for their rigorous inspection and favourable verdict. I also commend the Commissioner for Health, Dr Ngozi Okoronkwo, the Vice Chancellor ABSU, Professor Maxwell Ogbulu, the pioneer Provost, College of Medicine and Health Sciences ABSU, Professor Akpuaka; the Acting Chief Medical Director ABSUTH, Professor John Chikezie and the entire Abia State University Accreditation Committee for their diligent work and dedication.

We have also allocated 20% and 15% of our 2024 annual budget to education and health, respectively, to demonstrate our resolve to promote the well-being and security of our people. We believe that these are not favours, but obligations that we owe to our citizens. We will continue to do our best to provide quality service and governance to our state.

I congratulate our medical students, lecturers, and staff on this milestone, and I encourage them to make the best use of this opportunity to excel in their studies and careers.

When you don't have godfathers and riggers to repay you would have more than enough to work that's the simple truth


If God Father's made Otti governor he won't perform this well that's what most people don't get

Who renovated ABSUTH?

THIS IS 2021 BY Ikpeazu

I was in that facility a few years ago to get medical clearance for something important and I cursed PDP.

Though a f00lish party, they are still better than APC.

I regretted voting for that party twice.

The reception makes it look like a conference centre or Hotel. Good one by Mr Otti.

This has nothing to do with Okezie.

It has always been known that ABSU is one of the best public universities to study medicine in Nigeria since my secondary school days.

Anyways, the thread is about renovation of ABSUTH not MBBS exam

God bless the only Elup governor in the country.
God bless Peter Obi
God bless those who voted for him
God bless that INEC officer who did not succumb to PDP demonic pressure to overture the result
God bless all Elup worldwide
God bless me too

Why all these lies to score cheap political points?

ABSUTH was shut down for eight years and it was Dr Okezie Ikpeazu who resuscitated it.

Is like you are one of those teenagers who knows nothing about Southeast than what you read on the Internet.

This programme was help there in 2022

Pls which governor built to this hospital because irt appears to be the best structurally in. the east

If Nigeria was working, ikpeazu would have been chilling in prison by now

Impressive

Good governance!

Beautiful work there by Alex Otti.
The ission block is an Israeli prototype.

Can you add d pix of the block?

The government should be proactive in weed control in the hospital vicinity.

This was how Obi was prepared for Nigerians before agbado people ruined everything.

They will all get their reward.

All these are lies meant to deceive gullible folks.

Even a fool would know that teaching hospitals cannot be renovated within 2 months by a governor who was sworn in midyear. The 2023 budget of the state was ed by former istration.

Anyways, EluP is synonymous with mendacity.
