The attention of the Lagos State Ministry of Health (the “Ministry of Health”) has been drawn to a video and allegations emanating from an incident involving officials of one of our agencies, the Health Facilities Monitoring and Accreditation Agency (HEFAMAA), and the management of King Solomon Hospital, Anthony Village.
We are investigating the matter. It will be improper and premature to comment on the facts of the incident at this time.
However, we seek to emphasize that the Lagos State Government, through the Ministry of Health, is charged with ensuring the safety of citizens by monitoring the quality of healthcare services provided by all public and private health facilities within Lagos State. We remain strongly committed to the diligent performance of our statutory duties.
Signed
Mr Gbenga Omotoso
Honourable Commissioner for Information And Strategy
