ACCIDENT: GOVERNOR OYEBANJI CLEARS MEDICAL BILL OF TEENAGER WHO LOST LEG

Succour has come the way of a 15-year-old girl who lost her left leg in an auto accident in Usi Ekiti after Governor Biodun Oyebanji ordered a comprehensive treatment for her with a promise to shoulder her bills.

The teenager who is receiving treatment at the Federal Teaching Hospital, Ido-Ekiti was reported by the Foundation for Investigative Journalism FIJ to have lost her leg after she was knocked down by a vehicle while trying to cross the road in Usi Ekiti.

It was learnt that Governor Oyebanji had informed the Chief Medical Director to the Federal Teaching Hospital, Ido Ekiti Professor Adekunle Ajayi that the state government would foot Afolabi’s entire medical bill and get her a prosthesis.

FIJ reported that Mary Omotosho, the senior special adviser on community communication to the governor, said Oyebanji was particular about the wellbeing of his people, and that when Afolabi’s situation came to his notice, it didn’t meet him unprepared, as he had dedicated a special fund to such issues.

Adewale Olailo, the patient’s father, could not contain his happiness on the development. He thanked the governor for his help and wished him well in governing the state.
