Members of the Medical and Dental Consultants' Association of Nigeria of the Ogun State Ministry of Health and the Hospitals Management Board have pledged their unalloyed loyalty and support to the new Head of Service, Dr. Nafiu Aigoro, in his quest to continue to move the State Civil Service forward.

The pledge was made by the Chairman of the Association, Dr. Ayodeji Erinle, when he led other members on a courtesy visit to the Office of the Head of Service, Oke-mosan, Abeokuta in felicitation of the Head of Service's appointment as the first Medical Doctor to assume the position.

According to him, Dr. Aigoro has made unprecedented history in the annals of the State as the first Orthopedic Surgeon to become the Head of Service, thus, the onus is on them to throw their full weight behind him to ensure that he succeeds as the 18th Head of Ogun State Civil/Public Service.

Responding, the Number One Civil Servant, Dr. Nafiu Aigoro, who was overwhelmed by the show of love, support and commitment from his professional colleagues pleaded for suggestions and solutions to knotty issues, especially in the health sector, and not dealing with crisis all the time, though, challenges are bound to come.

The Head of Service charged them to always do the needful by being dutiful and show quality leadership to other professionals to emulate from, so that good service delivery can be achieved in all the health facilities across the State.

"Support me in ensuring we move the State forward, as all eyes are on you. My colleagues, be there for me and do the needful in the discharge of your duties because to whom much is given, much is expected and I am grateful to this administration for being so supportive as we have not had it so good in the health sector in recent past"', Dr. Aigoro said.
