The governor, who spoke yesterday after inspecting the Specialist Hospital, Bauchi, and the Bauchi State College of Nursing and Midwifery, expressed displeasure that some critical sections of the hospital constructed and commissioned by the immediate past administration were not provided with furniture or equipment as contained in the contractual agreement

He directed the Commissioner for Health, Dr. Halima  Mukaddas, to furnish him with the emoluments of medical doctors in neighbouring states to make Bauchi State more attractive to medical doctors and the para-medics.
