The House of Representatives Committee on Health Institutions has called for urgent financial investment in federal teaching hospitals across the country in line with the Renewed Hope Agenda of the current administration for the betterment of the citizenry.

The Chairman of the Committee, Amos Magaji, who led members of his committee on a visit to the Federal University of Health Sciences Teaching Hospital, Otukpo, Benue State, said the need to allocate more funds in the health sector cannot be overemphasized considering the primary place of health institutions in the country.

He commended the hospital’s management for showing interest in the growth of the facility, which was being upgraded from a general hospital to a teaching hospital, judging by the achievements recorded within one year.
