Borno State governor, Babagana Zulum has expressed confidence that with three professors at the helm of affairs of the state’s health sector, it is either they repositioned it now or never.
Zulum stated this when he received the Health Minister, Prof Mohammed Ali Pate and his delegation at the council chamber of the Government House in Maiduguri on Friday.
“I told my team yesterday that this is the right time to reposition the health sector. If we cannot do it now, then we should forget about it because the Commissioner of Health (Babagana M. Mallum) is a professor; the Chief Medical Director of the Hospitals Management Board (Bukar Kullima) is a professor; the Coordinator of the State Primary Healthcare Agency (Mohammed Arab Alhaji) is a professor, and above all, you the Coordinating Minister of Health is also a professor.
“If these people (three professors) cannot make the needed repositioning in the health sector in the next three or four years, insha’Allah, honestly speaking, I don’t think we can get it right any time soon,” the governor said.

Zulum noted that his administration will ensure it provides the needed support and political will to address problems affecting the health sector.
