ANAMBRA State Governor, Prof Chukwuma Soludo, has announced plans to document all native doctors practising in the state as part of a broader strategy to tackle the rising insecurity in the state.
This move is aimed at addressing the alleged role of some native doctors in assisting criminals, particularly the unknown gunmen, by providing them with anti-bullet charms, known as Odieshi.
The Governor made this declaration during the 2024 Public Service Day celebration, held at the Jerome Udorji Secretariat Complex in Awka, the state capital.
The event, themed “Ensuring Safety and Health at Work in a Changing Climate”, brought together top government officials and public servants from various ministries, departments, and agencies.
Soludo highlighted his administration’s achievements in different sectors and praised the state’s workforce for their hard work and dedication, which he said had contributed significantly to the state’s progress.
