Keeping
the
promise...
Let
 me
 first
 start
 by
 saying
 how
 deeply
 grateful
 to
 God,
 we
 are
 for
 His
 abundant
 mercies
 on
 us
 and
 His
 undeniable
 continuous
 presence
 in
 our
 lives.
Today,
we
would
have
been
celebrating
the
48th
Birthday
of
my
darling
 wife.
Notwithstanding,
we
are
indeed
here
to
celebrate
something
in
her
 honor;
Her
Legacy.
Before
her
departure,
she
gave
very
clear
and
detailed
 instructions
 of
 this
 vision
 which
 we
 see
 becoming
 a
 reality.
 This
 vision
 executed
by
the
grace
of
God
through
the
Jennifer
Etuh
Foundation[JEF]
 gave
 birth
 to
 the
 1st
 Medical
 Center
 in
 Odu,
 Kogi
 State
 which
 was
 commissioned
on
26th
January
2022,
exactly
730
days
after
she
went
to
be
 with
the
Lord.

Today,
we
are
here
in
Kagoro
Kaduna
State,
to
commission
the
2nd
Medical
 Center
out
of
the
Six
planned
for
the
Six
geopolitical
zones
of
our
country
 Nigeria.
This
particular
commissioning
is
very
important
to
us
as
it
is
in
the
 State,
Local
Government
and
Community
of
my
darling
wife.
The
fact
that



this
facility
was
built
at
a
time
when
there
are
still
security
challenges
in
and
 around
Kagoro
could
only
have
been
by
the
hand
of
God
whom
we
are
most
 grateful
to.
As
 we
 commission
 this
 medical
 facility,
 our
 prayer
 is
 for
 God
 to
 keep
 answering
the
prayers
of
my
late
wife
which
was
to
bring
relief
to
many
so
that
 they
don't
go
through
what
she
went
through.
To
the
glory
of
God,
we
are
 seeing
the
Almighty
God
making
her
dreams
and
prayers
a
reality.
You
are
most
welcome
and
I
want
to
personally
appreciate
you
all
for
taking
 out
time
from
your
busy
schedules
to
be
here
physically.
We
are
grateful
to
all
 who
have
stood
with
us
and
supported
us
in
various
ways,
from
our
hearts
we
 say
thank
you.

To
the
members
of
the
foundation
and
our
friends
who
supervised
the
project,
 we
are
grateful.

My
prayer
is
for
God
to
continue
to
grant
us
more
of
His
grace
 to
do
far
more
than
my
darling
wife
desired
and
envisioned.
May
God
bless
us
 all
and
take
us
back
safe
and
sound
to
our
respective
homes

when
we
return.
 Amen.

Thomas

ABOUT
JENNIFER
ETUH
SPECIALIST
HOSPITAL
Jennifer
Etuh
Specialist
Hospital
Mallagum
Kagoro
is
second
in
a
series
of
 full-service
hospitals
to
be
built
by
Mr.
Thomas
Etuh
in
memory
of
his
late
 wife,
 Jennifer
 Ramatu
 Etuh,
 who
 was
 called
 to
 glory
 on
 26th
 January
 2020.

While
on
her
sick
bed,
the
late
Jennifer
Etuh
had,
as
one
of
her
few
last
 wishes,
 the
 establishment
 of
 world-class
 hospitals
 in
 locations
 across
 Nigeria
as
follows;
Odu
Ogboyega,
in
Dekina
Local
Government
Area
of
 Kogi
State
and
in
Kagoro,
Kaura
Local
Government
Area
of
Kaduna
State.

The
Jennifer
Etuh
Foundation
will
also
be
established
the
same
hospitals
 in
memory
of
Mrs
Etuh
in
Ifewara,
Osun
State,
Tula,
Gombe
State
and
at
 least
one
hospital
in
each
geo-political
zone
of
Nigeria.

On
January
26th
2022,
the
hospital
in
Odu
Ogboyega,
in
Dekina
Local
 Government
Area
of
Kogi
State,
Jennifer
Etuh
Medical
Centre
was
official
 launched
 and
 is
 fully
 functional.
 It
 is
 being
 operated
 by
 the
 Catholic
 Mission
of
Nigeria
(Idah
Diocese).
The
official
opening
and
launching
of
Jennifer
Etuh
Specialist
Hospital,
 Mallagum
Kagoro,
Kaduna
State
is
part
of
the
vision
of
late
Mrs.
Jennifer
 Etuh
 is
 to
 provide
 available,
 accessible,
 and
 affordable
 world
 class
 healthcare
 services
 to
 women,
 children
 and
 all
 the
 people
 in
 the

15


16
community,
and
indeed
the
people
of
Kaduna
State
and
Nigeria
as
a
whole;
 to
help
them
live
a
healthy
and
fulfilling
life.
The
Jennifer
Etuh
Specialist
 Hospital
Kagoro
will
be
managed
by
Bingham
University.

Jennifer
Etuh
Specialist
Hospital
is
sited
on
a
6.7-hectare
land
in
Mallagum,
 Kagoro,
Kaduna
State,
Nigeria.
Like
its
peer
in
Odu
Ogboyega,
the
hospital
 has
 an
 Outpatient
 Department
 (OPD),
 3
 Consulting
 Rooms,
 Pharmacy,
 Antenatal,
 Special
 Care
 Baby
 Unit,
 Intensive
 Care
 Unit,
 Labour/Delivery
 Room,
Accident
Observation/Emergency
Room,
Ophthalmology
Clinic,
a
 Diagnostic
 Centre
 that
 houses
 Cervical
 Cancer
 Screening
 Room,
 Mammogram,
 X-ray
 and
 Ultrasound
 Scanning
 Machines
 and
 a
 laboratory
 equipped
for
chemistry,
haematology,
microbiology
and
virology
tests
and
 a
Morgue.
It
also
has
a
theatre
for
surgical
and
gynaecological
procedures.

The
 Kagoro
 Specialist
 Hospital
 also
 has
 managers'
 offices,
 laundry,
 a
 restaurant
 for
 in-patients
 and
 visitors,
 an
 external
 pharmacy,
 and
 a
 mini
 mart.
Other
facilities
include
staff
accommodation
consisting
of
2-bedroom
 housing
for
doctors,
4
self-contain
flats
for
nurses
and
6
studio
apartments
 for
staff.

To
unequivocally
posit
the
believe
of
the
Jennifer
Etuh
Foundation
Board
 that
medical
experts
and
world
class
hospitals
can
only
observe
and
make
 recommendations
on
health
issues
while
actual
healing
comes
from
God
is
 why
 a
 100-120
 capacity
 Chapel
 is
 sited
 at
 the
 hospital
 for
 the
 spiritual
 nourishment
of
the
staff
and
patients
of
the
hospital
and
to
offer
praises
and
 thanksgiving
to
the
God
that
heals
our
diseases.

The
siting
of
Jennifer
Etuh
Specialist
Hospital
in
Mallagum
Kagoro
is
aimed
at
 bringing
 to
 reality
 the
 wishes
 of
 Mrs.
 Etuh
 who
 had
 wondered
 why,
 of
 Nigeria's
30,000
Primary
Healthcare
Centres,
only
20%
are
functional,
but
 also
 realized
 that
 world
 class
 Medicare
 is
 available
 only
 to
 the
 rich
 and
 affluent
that
can
travel
outside
the
shores
of
Nigeria,
and
for
the
ones
that
 seek
for
Medicare
in-country,
the
good
hospitals
are
available
only
in
the
 cities,
with
no
consideration
for
the
poor
and
rural
dwellers.
A
section
of
the
Jennifer
Etuh
Specialist
Hospital
Kagoro
is
dedicated
to
the
 programmatic
 empowerment
 of
 needy
 women
 and
 girls
 in
 Kagoro
 and
 neighbouring
 towns
 through
 skills
 acquisition
 and
 entrepreneurship
 programmes
at
the
Jennifer
Etuh
Skills
Acquisition
Centre.

 ODU
OGBOYEGA,
DEKINA,
KOGI
STATE
 Commissioned:
26th
of
January
2022.

Empowering
women
and
young
girls
in
 Nigeria
with
quality
education
Jennifer
Etuh
Foundation
(JEF)
was
established
in
2020
in
memory
of
the
 late
Mrs.
Jennifer
Ramatu
Etuh
who
lived
an
exemplary
humanitarian
life.
 She
 was
 passionate
 about
 helping
 the
 needy,
 creating
 opportunities
 to
 uplift
disadvantaged
women
and
girls
she
came
in
contact
with
by
giving
 them
 educational
 and
 vocational
 support
 and
 other
 forms
 of
 care
 that
 would
empower
and
give
them
a
new
lease
of
life.

Jennifer
was
a
dedicated
lover
of
God
that
led
a
selfless
and
impactful
life,
 constantly
putting
smiles
on
the
faces
of
those
within
her
reach,
needy
or
 not.
She
can
rightly
be
described
as
an
embodiment
of
Matthew
5:16
which
 says:
“let
your
light
so
shine
before
men
that
they
may
see
your
good
works
 and
glorify
your
father
which
is
in
heaven.”
Worthy
 of
 note
 is
 that,
 whenever
 Jennifer
 hears
 of
 a
 need
 that
 requires
 urgent
help,
whether
she
knows
the
person
or
not,
she
locates
herself
in



that
need
and
becomes
the
solution
or
part
of
the
solution.
A
typical
example
of
 “What
Would
Jesus
Do?”
Since
 the
 setting
 up
 of
 the
 Jennifer
 Etuh
 Foundation,
 it
 has
 intervened
 in
 the
 education
and
empowerment
of
women
and
girls
from
different
walks
of
life
with
 support
ranging
from
school
fees,
vocation
starter
packs
and
finance
for
petty
 trading
 to
 counseling
 on
 smart
 and
 godly
 life
 choices.
 The
 foundation
 also
 supported
 Nigerians
 during
 the
 difficult
 times
 of
 the
 COVID-19
 lockdown
 in
 Abuja,
Kaduna
and
Kogi
States
with
food
and
financial
palliatives.


In
 its
 few
 years
 of
 establishment,
 the
 foundation
 has,
 amongst
 other
 interventions,
 given
 full
 scholarships
 to
 outstanding
 indigent
 students
 that
 erstwhile
could
not
afford
school
fees
in
Christ
Ambassadors
College,
Kaduna,
 with
a
number
of
other
students
at
different
levels
of
studies
in
different
schools
 also
being
supported
by
the
foundation.

The
foundation
also
stepped
into
a
poverty
occasioned
situation
to
“rescue”
a
 mother
whose
daughter
was
terminally
ill
in
Benue
State.
The
daughter
had
a
 renal
 dysfunction
 (kidney
 breakdown).
 She
 eventually
 got
 medical
 help
 that
 reversed
the
situation
but
could
not
pay
the
bill
because
she
could
not
afford
it.
 In
one
of
his
calls
to
get
his
payment,
the
woman
told
the
Doctor
that
she
is
so
 broke
that
cant
even
feed
herself
and
her
daughter,
she
told
the
doctor
about
a
 man
that
was
willing
to
give
her
N2,000.00
(
Two
Thousand
Naira)

to
feed,
only
 on
the
condition
that
he
slept
with
her.

When
Mr.
Thomas
Etuh
heard
about
that,
he
asked
that
money
should
be
sent
to
 the
woman
and
asked
the
foundation
to
take
over
the
education
of
the
daughter.
 She
is
currently
in
JSS
3.

and

empowerment
of
 women
and

in
