Sources said that the feat by the institution’s team of medics was despite the dearth of equipment at the hospital. Addressing reporters in Ilorin, the Chief Medical Director (CMD) of UITH, Prof. Abdullah Yussuf, attributed the feat to the commitment and determination of the 66-member team.
Yussuf said medical tourism abroad by some privileged Nigerians could be halted if the needed medical equipment were made available at the nation’s public hospitals.
The team was led by Paediatric surgeon, Prof Lukman Abdul-Rahman who is pictured carrying the babies.
