The Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Rasidi Ladoja, has voiced deep concern about the deteriorating state of the University College Hospital (UCH), Ibadan, calling on President Bola Tinubu’s administration to urgently revive the facility.

Speaking during a courtesy visit by the Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Mr. Taiwo Oyedele, and the Coordinating Minister of Health and Social Welfare, Professor Ali Pate, the traditional ruler lamented the hospital’s precarious condition and shortage of medical personnel.
