Governor Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri visited the State Specialist Hospital in Jimeta-Yola today to assess the damage caused by a fire outbreak that occurred last night. The incident, which affected an area where hospital equipment is stored, has raised concerns about the security of public facilities.

Accompanied by Deputy Governor Prof. Kaletapwa Farauta and Secretary to the State Government Auwal D. Tukur, Governor Fintiri emphasized the importance of safeguarding public assets. “This facility is our collective heritage and must be collectively guarded,” he stated, urging the public to remain vigilant against potential saboteurs who may seek to undermine societal benefits.

Despite the unfortunate event, Governor Fintiri reaffirmed the government’s commitment to prioritizing the health sector. “We will not waver in our efforts to ensure that the state is prepared for such unforeseen incidents,” he assured.

The government is expected to conduct a thorough investigation into the cause of the fire and take necessary measures to prevent future occurrences.

Adamawa state Health Commissioner Felix Tangwami noted that the building touched by the fire was a passive storage for equipment hence will not hamper provision of Health services to the public.
