From Joseph Amedu, Lokoja
Enemona Josh Foundation has settled medical bills for 50 patients who are due for discharge but could not pick up their bills in three different hospitals in Anyigba.
The Foundation paid over one million naira to the management of the three hospitals after ascertaining the cost of treatment of the patients.
The Founder/ Chairman of the foundation, Gabriel Onoja said in a statement made available to Journalists in Lokoja on Thursday “We can’t leave everything to government and that is why we have to collaborate with the government to make sure that quality healthcare is delivered to everyone”
He noted that it is even worrisome to see a patient who is already well, but still stays in the hospital as a result of inability to pay medical bills.
He added, “I want to tell you that those who are still in hospital that hope is not lost, but assured them that even those with critical medical conditions will get their healing”
Reacting on behalf of the beneficiaries, the father of one of the beneficiaries thanked Enemona foundation whose intervention he said was not only timely, but divine-coming at a time their hope was lost.
He assured Gabriel Onoja of their continued prayers for him, just as he wished that other Nigerians have such a godly heart for those in need.
