Excitement as Ishaku orders free treatment for Taraba blast victims
Relatives and victims of the recent bomb blast in Taraba State, yesterday, expressed joy over the decision of the state government to take over their hospital bills.
The state governor, Darius Dickson Ishaku, had through his deputy, Haruna Manu, announced free treatment for victims during an on-the-spot assessment to the two sites of the bomb blasts and the various hospitals where the injured were receiving treatment.
He vowed not to go to bed until the perpetrators of the attacks and their sponsors are brought down on their knees. Several people were critically injured in the incidents, which occurred on Tuesday and Friday last week in Iware village of Ardo-Kola council and Nukkai in Jalingo metropolis.
The Guardian learnt that many are still confined to hospital beds across Iware community and Jalingo.
The deputy governor, who was accompanied by the Speaker of the state House of Assembly, Joseph Albasu Kunini, and other commissioners, also reiterated the commitment of the governor towards the protection of the life and property of the people of the state.
