The Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) has donated three
ventilators to two General hospitals to support the Federal Government’s
fight against Coronavirus in the country.
The board disclosed this in a statement, signed by Dr Fabian Benjamin, Head of Media and Publicity on Wednesday in Abuja.
JAMB said the gesture was prompted by ongoing collective support in the
country to contain the spread of the virus in the country.
”The board appreciates the support and donations from corporate bodies
and individuals toward complementing government’s efforts, aimed at
containing the spread of the pandemic.
”This efforts are also aimed at treating those already infected by the virus.
”In our own little way of ensuring that government strategies and
preemptive measures yield fruitful dividends, the board has donated two
ventilators to the University of Abuja Teaching Hospital, Gwagwalada.
”Another one is donated to the principal hospital in the Board’s host
community, the Bwari General Hospital, Abuja, in preparation for any
eventuality.
” This was borne out of the board’s desire to plan in line with federal
government’s determination to ensure that no Nigerian succumbed to the
virus.
” The donation of these ventilators which cost several millions is to
strategically place these Hospitals in good stead to give necessary
treatment to COVID-19 patients whether in Bwari or any other part of
Abuja.
” However, this gesture was in addition to the several other
interventions aimed at aiding the fight against the virus, ” the board
said.
JAMB said that it would continue to support the fight against the
pandemic within its limited means and by so doing, protect its teeming
candidates.
