UCH CMD Commends Lanre Laoshe For Giving Diesel To Medical Institution
Amidst the raging controversy surrounding the purported N1000.00 electricity tariff to be charged by the University College Hospital, Ibadan on its patients, a kind-hearted Nigeria has opted to help the hospital out of the diesel problem. Hon. Lanre Laoshe called the hospital from Lagos to sympathize with UCH over the current power problem being faced by UCH. According to Hon. Laoshe, “I belong to a WhatsApp group where the story circulating in the media about the proposed N1000.00 charge, I felt deeply sorry for UCH because things must have gone to the extreme before such a proposal could be contemplated. I told my colleagues on the platform that rather than condemning UCH, we should call to seek ways of helping the hospital. It is Nigeria’s pride. UCH is our collective heritage.” He said after considering the ugly situation, “I decided to give 1,000 litres of diesel as my little contribution towards solving the power problems in UCH”.
