Welcome to Taraba State Specialist Hospital, Jalingo, Nigeria--Patients First--

His Excellency Gov. Danbaba Suntai, B. Pharm

Message from His Excellency Governor D. Suntai- Chairman of the Hospital 

 

Welcome to the Taraba State Specialist Hospital, Jalingo. As a health care professional, I am proud to be in this leadership role, first as a Governor and second as Chairman of the specialist hospital, Jalingo. 

I consider both assignments as the pinnacles of social responsibility and limitless opportunities to serve and protect all Tarabans especially the most vulnerable among us--the sick, the elderly, the poor and our women and children. My passion for medicine attracted me to pharmacy school and practice.

My passion for serving humanity culminated in my career in politics and now as the Governor of the State. It is my fervent hope, aspiration and prayer that we will all work together  in transforming our hospital into the pre-emninent specialist hospital in Northern Nigeria.

I am dedicated to the personal supervision of the services rendered, capital expenditure for sustainable tertiary health system development and attracting and retaining the best human resource potential for our state specialist hospital.

I appreciate the rapid transformation the specialist hospital, Jalingo  is undergoing with world class facilities like a busy cancer center and endoscopy, laparoscopy and hemodialysis and echocardiography services accomplished routinely under the leadership of a distinguished, dynamic and dedicated CMD. This is the role of democracy in serving the people and ensuring their health care needs are met with the best quality of care, compassion and in an affordable manner and above all, closer to home. I am proud that a highly trained medical specialist with educational and training experiences in Nigeria and the USA is leading the effort of the specialist hospital transformation.

I have given the CMD/CEO the mandate of ensuring that patients are always first consistent with my administration policy of putting people first.

Please join us in the remarkable journey of transforming our health system to the contemporary standard observed worldwide.
