A recent investigation into the primary healthcare systems in Sokoto and Yobe states reveals stark contrasts in their operational conditions. In Sokoto, many primary healthcare centers (PHCs) are reportedly closed, overgrown with weeds, and severely understaffed, leading to inadequate patient care. In contrast, Yobe's healthcare facilities are functioning effectively, providing better services to the community. The report highlights alarming conditions in Sokoto, where patients are treated on mats and women are forced to deliver on bare floors, underscoring the urgent need for improvements in the region's healthcare infrastructure.
