Borno State Governor Prof. Babagana Umara Zulum, has approved the payment of N13.9 million and car gift to a 65-year old medical doctor from Ogun State, who lived within the General Hospital in Monguno and continued to offer healthcare services to patients even when the town was faced with the most severe threats by Boko Haram.

The doctor, Dr. Isa Akinbode, graduated from the University of Maiduguri and joined the Borno State Civil Service, where he served for 22 years before he retired in 2016 at Monguno General Hospital.

After his retirement, the doctor, despite reports that he was once abducted and released by Boko Haram in Monguno, remained at the General Hospital in Monguno to offer voluntary medical services. Then Governor Kashim Shettima, during one his visits to Monguno, directed officials of the state’s Ministry of Health to engage Akinbode as a contract staff. Due to bureaucratic procedures, officials at the ministry in Maiduguri, however, delayed formalising the doctor’s contract, even though he continued to serve.

Five years later, Governor Zulum, on Friday, directed that Dr. Akinbode be paid his accrued arrears of N13.9m based on the terms of the contract directed by the former governor in 2016. Zulum also directed that going forward, contracts should be formalised for monthly entitlements.

The governor also presented a Toyota Highlander as gift to Dr Akinbode for his services to the host people of Borno.

“These (people like Dr Akinbode) are the kinds of people that need to be encouraged. He lives in Monguno despite all the security problems. My predecessor had during his visit to Monguno directed that he should be engaged on contract basis; unfortunately due to some bureaucratic procedures, his reengagement has not been formalised. In fulfilment of the promise of my boss, I decided to re-engage him on contract basis retrospectively. We are paying all his entitlements/salary in arrears. I am giving him a cheque of N13.9m. I have also approved his reengagement from 2016, being the date of his retirement.” Zulum said.

Governor Zulum also approved the recruitment of Dr Akinbode’s daughter, who studied Public Administration at the University of Maiduguri, into the Borno State Civil Service.

If that man was killed will Zulum have given that man's Family one naira?

Igbochief001:
When I told them southerners run northern medical system they said it's a lie

Oil is one reason north don't want Nigeria to break ...the main is manpower


Without NYSC many northern youths won't have the opportunity to be taught by a university graduate

60% of medical professionals in the north are southerns ...Igbos alone hold 40% of that

Years n years of propaganda would be exposed the day Nigeria breaks

EmptyGarden:
Deserving.
But Zulum for just make am N14m.

Smileall:

This is the fruit of selfless service
May my helper locate me too very soon

Smileall:
God bless you for your kind words
I feel blessed right now

NosaHenry:

I would have agreed with you but remember he was abducted before by the same Boko Haram. I think they already know him and possibly like him.

Racoon:
Commendable! This is patriotism even against his own life.
Now where will one see the opposite of the selfless service the determined man have rendered by someone from the region elsewhere? All they do is promoting and involving in a ethno-religio-political dominations and expansionist agenda.

Okay

Now read this if you can.



Yet, if igbos can't secure admission in any Northern university, ipob miscreants will be all over the places exhibiting their foolishness.

Now, this man was trained in the North, got job in the states civil service, served meritoriously and being compensated by the state govt, yet you are still typing nonsense.

Even though the statistics you are brandishing must have been generated from one beer parlour, let's assume it's true. So it is now an offence for igbos to get employed in the North. Yet, if they can't get employed, ipob lunatics will be all over the places.

Give them employment, "it is because we are the best".

They can't get employment, "it is because they hate us.

Pls, leave out the "we south" in the nonsense you are typing.

Since the igbos which account for over 100% of medical personnel in the North are offering selfless services, I suggest you call them back home.

Fortunately, there is nothing we can do about it!
