Oyo State Board Recruits Over 20 Doctors Amid Allegations - Healthcare Improvements Underway

The Oyo State Hospital Management Board, led by Dr. Akin Fagbemi, refuted claims of financial mismanagement and mass resignations of doctors in Oyo State.

Dr. Fagbemi stated that over 20 doctors have been recruited in the past year, with 10 starting work in the last two weeks.

The recruitment is part of efforts to address vacancies and improve healthcare in Oyo. The Board also implemented an exit and replacement policy to maintain adequate staffing levels.

Additionally, the introduction of an electronic payment system has led to improved revenue collection and accountability. Governor Seyi Makinde's administration is committed to enhancing the healthcare sector in Oyo State.
