Felix Omoh-Asun in Benin
The federal government has provided a platform where women suffering from obstetric fistula, will be treated free, including surgery, feeding and transportation support in Edo State.
This was disclosed by Professor Ileogben Sunday-Adeoye, the Medical Director of the National Obstetric Fistula Centre, Benin City.
Speaking with journalists, Sunday-Adeoye said the facility was established to provide specialised care for women living with Vesico Vaginal Fistula (VVF) and Recto Vaginal Fistula (RVF), conditions that result in the uncontrollable leakage of urine and faeces through the vagina.
