He later went round to see other babies born shortly after Baby Derrick and equally gave them gifts as well as their parents.

Gbajabiamila settled the delivery bills of all babies born in the facility on Friday as well as some other patients who could not pay their bills.

Received by Mrs Aduke Odutayo, Medical Director of the Community Hospital and other staff, the speaker commended the management of the facility for doing their best to improve healthcare delivery in the area.

He promised to support the hospital to further enhance healthcare delivery at the hospital and others in the constituency.

Speaking to the NAN, Ozumba said she was surprised by the speaker’s visit and the show of love to her baby and the family.

Ozumba, who could not hold back her tears of joy, said the coming of Derrick had brought blessings to the family through the speaker’s visit and gifts.

“Honestly, I lack words; I could never have imagined that the speaker will visit my baby, let alone giving us all these gifts.

“Derrick has brought blessings for us; I am extremely happy and grateful to Mr Femi Gbajamiala and I pray that God will bless and always guide him,’’ she said.

The speaker after the visit to the hospital, embarked on an inspection tour of his on-going and just-completed constituency projects in Surulere.
