Dr. Bamidele Mustapha, Medical Director, Epe General Hospital, has on Thursday, rewarded his staff for a well-done job in the year 2020 and also commended Gov. Babajide Sanwoolu for his adequate funding of health sector across the state.

Mustapha made the commendation during the end of the year party organized on Thursday, in the hospital premises, in Epe.

He said that the reward of staff was imperative to encourage them to continue to put in their best in the course of discharging their duties.

“The rewards are to task the staff to do more in service delivery, to whom much is giving, much is expected.

“The reward of hard work is more work. I, therefore, urge the staff who were rewarded this year to do more next year and for those who were not rewarded this year should brace up for next year, ” he said.

Mustapha mentioned some of the titles of the award which include: Best staff for the year, best Department for the year, best senior staff for the year among several others.

“The staff has been supportive all through the year and they needed to be encouraged to continue with the team spirit of moving the hospital to a greater height, ” he said.

The medical director commended Gov. Sanwo-olu for his unflinching support towards moving the health sector forward.

“The listening Governor has been so supportive and proactive in addressing challenges facing the sector.

“General hospital across Lagos state has all the necessary facilities and equipment that worth International standard.

“The present-day general hospital in Lagos state function as a private hospital, all the services that a patient will enjoy in a private hospital are also available in the general hospital across Lagos state.

“Kudos to Gov. Babajide Sanwo-olu for a well-done job and I do wish him a quick recovery, ” he said.

Mustapha urged the Lagos state government to provide Epe general hospital with a stable power supply with over 5,000 megawatts.

“We need a stable power supply that will aid in discharging our responsibilities. The epileptic power supply is affecting our work.

“With a regular supply of power, it will help to save more lives, enhance the staff proficiency, ” he said.

He also lamented at the ridiculous spending on diesel on daily basis, adding that the money injected in buying diesel daily can be channeled into another reasonable obligation in the hospital.

“I do spend up to 4million monthly to power generators because there are some departments in the hospital that needed a regular supply of electricity.

” If the power is not supplied to them, It might lead to high casualties in the hospital, ” he said.

Mustapha appealed to the sons and daughter of Epe Division to support the hospital by providing with some of her necessities.

“The government cannot do it alone, It requires public-private support. The government are playing their role, individuals should also be supportive.

“Like Oliver Twist, Epe general hospital needs more presence of the government, we thank the government for his support so far, but more are yet to be done in the area of electricity supply, ” he said.
