THE General Overseer of
Redeemed Christian Church Of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye has
donated dialysis machine worth N10million
to University College Hospital, Ibadan, to help patients with kidney
problem across the country .
The gesture came
during the 62nd Founder’s day of University College Hospital, Ibadan, Tuesday.
Pastor Adeboye, who was accompanied by the top management of
UCH led by the Chief Medical Director of the hospital, Prof. Abiodun Otegbayo,
said the donation was necessary for view of the vital role that kidney plays in
the life of human being
Adeboye said: “people didn’t think of going abroad for their
treatment when we were young. They believed once they come to UCH, they would
be healed.
Talking to kidney patients and the teaching hospital, Pastor
Adeboye said, “I rejoice with you that we have already had one on ground and we
will have another two by the end of this year. I promised to do more because
kidney is vital to human existence looking at the challenges people living with
kidney problems are facing”.
“If human being can’t
help us, then we can go to the all-sufficient God and we keep crying to him”.
The Chief Medical Director of UCH, Prof. Abiodun Otegbayo,
however, urged Nigerians to donate generously for the development of the hospital.
Otegbayo said: “UCH is overwhelmed and overstretched because of the influx of patients with primary and secondary healthcare challenges which he said had been derailing UCH from its original focus which is tertiary healthcare.”
