Kogi State plans trauma centre along the Okene-Lokoja-Abuja highway


The Deputy Governor of the state, Mr. Yomi Awoniyi, in a statement said the Kogi State Government will establish a trauma centre along the Okene-Lokoja-Abuja highway to attend to accident victims.
Awoniyi made the  statement during the visit of the new Sector Commander of the Federal Road Safety Corps in the state, Mr. Charles Abochi. Awoniyi explained that they had to establish the trauma centre due to the high level of vehicle accidents being recorded on daily on the road.
 
The deputy governor said the SURE-P Hospital at Osara would be converted and re-equipped to serve as the trauma centre.
 
Awoniyi promised that the state government would support the FRSC to reduce road accidents.
