A REJOINDER TO JAMES ARCHIBONG’S POST ON FACEBOOK, ACCREDITED TO TARABA NEWS. 

 

The attention of the Management of Federal Medical Centre- Jalingo has been drawn to an online publication accredited to Taraba News posted by Mr Gabriel Olayinka's face book page.

Management will want to thank Mr James Archibong for his observation. In the same vein, Management would want to state her commitment to the culture of best practices in service delivery. It is therefore mandatory that any erring staff be appropriately sanctioned in line with existing regulations. 

We will want it known that the present site of FMC-J was handed over to her in 2004 in a rather bad shape. 

Successive Managements have been preoccupied with renovations, reconstruction and outright building of new  facilities as much as finances available will permit. 

The present administration under the leadership of the Medical Director, Dr. Aisha Shehu Adamu has taken giant and unprecedented steps to widen the scope of modernising facilities in the hospital in all ramifications. 

The Eye Clinic and others in need of attention are already scheduled. With the present trend of infrastructural development in the hospital,  every segment will soon wear a new look. 

We are committed to serving the good people of Taraba State and  beyond as a fully functional tertiary Health  Establishment.
