New isolation centre in Daura handed over to Katsina govt

The National Lottery Trust Fund has handed over a fully-equipped Isolation Centre, built in Daura, to the Katsina State Government.

The facility is located at the General Hospital in the town.

Alhaji Bello Maigari, the Executive Secretary of the Fund thanked the Katsina State government for the support that ensured the success of the project.

He expressed optimism that the facility would be useful in the fight against the disease and improve health care standard in Daura community and Katsina State.

He assured Governor Aminu Masari that the people of Daura would continue to receive good health care services from the hospital with efforts intensified to make it a model.

Special duties minister George Akume said that government is worried by the dangers caused by the virus “especially the destruction of human lives and national economy”.

He urged people in leadership positions to wake up and start working actively and collaborate to contain the spread of the disease.

Masari thanked the lottery fund for the project, and expressed happiness that the state now had an additional medical facility.

He, however, prayed that no one would be admitted into the facility.
