County Govt Ksm told to post medics to Angola Health Facility in Ksm East

The county Government of Kisumu has been told to immediately post a doctor and a nurse to the newly built health facility using donor funding in Kolwa East in Kisumu East Constituency.

 

The residents of the greater Kolwa now wants the Country Government of Kisumu under Prof Anyang Nyong’o to post the officers as soon as possible to Angola Health Center that has been constructed by a donor and handed over to the community.

 

President of Mwalimu James Japheth Mwamu Foundation James Aggrey Mwamu says it is prudent for the health facility to be functional and it is high time the County Government of Kisumu to take the responsibility of posting the required medics in the facility to serve the public within the area and beyond.

 

Mwamu says he has received complaints from the residents of the area on why they are still referred to Nyalunya Health Center some kilometers away in Kolwa Central because of lack of health personnel in the donor funded facility.

 

Mwamu says there is also the need to post a lab technician so as to carry out the duties within the health facilities.

 

Mwamu says the facility is fully equipped with various medical equipment and only it is the medics who are lacking to serve the people.

 

Mwamu who spoke at St Meshack Fellowship Church at Nyatege area in Mahenya Sub Location within the Constituency when the Foundation donated Covid 19 kits to 50 Community Health Volunteers(Nyamrerwa) within the area said the role the CHVs are doing within the community is very vital hence the need to recognize their work.

 

He says the Angola Health Facility is very key to the CHVs work hence the need to post medics immediately.

 

During the function, the CHVs appreciated the Foundation for providing them with Covid 19 kits like face masks, Sanitizers and lessos for their work in the community as Community Health volunteers.
