Abia State Governor, Alex Otti.
Abia State Governor, Alex Otti, has directed the harmonisation of the 2023 and 2025 Consolidated Medical Salary Structure for immediate implementation at the Abia State University Teaching Hospital, Aba.
Otti gave the directive on Thursday when he received a progress report from the Board and Management of ABSUTH, led by the Board Chairman, Dr Ezinne Kalu, during a working visit to the Governor’s Office.
The governor said the welfare and working conditions of healthcare professionals must receive adequate attention, noting that his administration’s investment in the health sector was aimed at improving healthcare delivery in the state.
He said, “The huge investment my administration is making in the health sector, including the consistent allocation of 15 per cent of the state’s annual budget to healthcare, is driven by my desire to provide affordable and quality healthcare to Abians, not to make profit.”
