Ogbonna asked Tinubu to overhaul the Ministry of Health, adding, “The Bola Tinubu government should look at the structural and infrastructural decay in the health sector. The decay in the health sector should be a thing of interest to the government.

“There should be an overhaul of the health ministry. The minister should not be a physician or a healthcare professional, the minister should be a seasoned administrator. The clinicians should concentrate on taking care of the patients because we are not even enough, so the clinicians should focus on taking care of the patients.”
