Muyideen Akorede, senior special assistant to Kwara state governor on media and publicity, has said that about one million people in the state would benefit from the community health insurance scheme of the government.
He made this known during an interview with journalists in Ilorin, the state capital, on Friday.
Akorede said the development was in line with the commitment of Abdulfatah Ahmed, governor of the state, to provide quality, affordable and accessible healthcare services.
He explained that the development was also a giant step in the effort of the government to transform the health sector.

On education, he said 400 blocks of classrooms had been constructed while 120 were to be refurbished in line with global best standard.
He appealed to the people to vote massively for the All Progressives Congress (APC) and refuse to “be distracted by the antics of opposition”.
