EKSG PROVIDES FREE MEDICAL CARE FOR FREED KIDNAP VICTIMS.
Following the release of the Eda Oniyo kidnap victims, the Ekiti State Governor, Mr. Biodun Oyebanji, has directed the management of the Ekiti State University Teaching Hospital (EKSUTH), Ado-Ekiti, to provide comprehensive medical screening and treatment for the victims.
The Governor also instructed the State Ministry of Health and Human Services to take full responsibility for overseeing the welfare and wellbeing of the victims, with the State Government covering all medical expenses incurred during their treatment.
The rescued victims are currently receiving care at the teaching hospital and will remain under medical supervision until they are certified fit for reintegration with their families.
Governor Oyebanji expressed his appreciation to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for his support in ensuring the safe return of the victims. He also commended heads of all security agencies in the State, the Ekiti State Council of Traditional Rulers, leaders of the Eda Oniyo community, and the State chapter of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), along with other stakeholders, for their roles in securing the victims’ release.
While reiterating his administration’s unwavering commitment to the protection of lives and property, the Governor urged individuals politicizing the unfortunate incident on social media to desist and instead collaborate with the government in building a safer and more prosperous State.
The Governor also extended his heartfelt condolences to the family of one of the victims who tragically lost his life while in captivity.
