“It is a great honour for me and the entire people of Kano Emirate to be here in Cross River to Commission, not just this hospital but other projects of His Excellency.

“Cross River is blessed to have Ayade as a son. His achievements are not talk shows, they are real.

“This hospital is one of his signature projects. I have been around the world and there is no difference between this hospital and the standard hospitals in Saudi Arabia and Europe. So I appeal to the management of this hospital to maintain the standard”, Ado Bayero stated.

According to Governor Ayade, the hospital was established by his administration in partnership with the Coscharis Group.

The outgoing Governor disclosed that the hospital was conceived to make Cross River the number destination for medical tourism in Nigeria.

“Here, you have a situation where you have the best equipment, facilities and personnel. With the ambience of Obudu Cattle Ranch and the serenity of the atmosphere, I can tell you that medical tourism will thrive here at Obudu-German Hospital,” the governor said.

Also speaking at the occasion, the Chairman of Coscharis Group, Dr Cosmas Maduka described the medical facility as second to none in Nigeria.

He further stated that the Obudu-German hospital was comparable to any German hospital worldwide.

He eulogised Ayade as a visionary for conceiving the idea of the hospital in 2020 and bringing it to reality three years later.

Dr Maduka challenged sceptics to “please visit this hospital and see things for yourselves”.

In her address, Cross River State Commissioner for Health, Dr Janet Ekpenyong said the hospital was a crystallisation of Governor Ayade’s desire for quality healthcare, describing him as the pro-health governor who has achieved unprecedented milestones in the sector.

Speaking earlier, the acting medical director of the hospital, Dr Seun Fasuranti listed the modern medical equipment at the hospital as a 1.5 Tesla MRI, 128 Slice CT scan, 3D Mammogram, ENT treatment units, Mobile X Ray, Dental X Ray, digital X-ray, latest 3D/4D ultrasound machine, colour Doppler scan, echo, dialysers, robotic pharmacy, and pressure swing absorption oxygen plant among others.
