Storyline:National News

Abdifatah Hassan Afrah has toured the main hospital in Baladweyne, with the purpose of assessing and supervision.

The governor observed all the wards and sections of the hospital including the under stocked pharmacy with almost all the shelves standing empty.

Abdifatah said he was alarmed by the level of neglect and medical needs there, he has appealed for help.

“Today I visited the general hospital of Baladweyne, this is the biggest in Central Regions at large, I came here because I received complain from members of the public, the important thing to note is that there is a problem here, including shortage of medical supplies, and when I supervised I found that the pharmacy has no any medical stock” he said.

He vowed to do more in providing basic services in the region despite the economic hardhships facing the government.

Having service delivery, including healthcare in Somalia is farfetched dreams for many locals.

Baladweyne and most of the towns has been facing acute shortage of medical supplies since the MSF withdrew from Somalia.
