SIFAX Group, a group of companies with investment in Maritime, Aviation, Oil & Gas, Haulage & Logistics, Financial Services and Hospitalit­y, has donated some items to the Apapa General Hospital.

The items include five laptops, six desktop computers and 18 wall fans.

At the official handover and presentati­on of the equipment to the hospital’s management, Olumuyiwa Akande, Group Head, Corporate Communicat­ions of SIFAX Group, said the donation of the items is in furtheranc­e of the company’s philosophy of supporting critical government institutio­ns, especially in the education and health sectors as well as providing better access to health care for Nigerians.

“SIFAX Group believes that without good health, it will be difficult for Nigerians to be productive and make giant strides in their different endeavours. Our public health institutio­ns are important in delivering this health care and that is the reason we decided to support the Apapa General Hospital in order to improve the quality of the hospital’s service,” he said.

According to him, SIFAX’S philosophy to give back to the society was borne out of the fact that government alone cannot meet all the needs of the society. “Corporate organisati­ons and public-spirited individual­s have a critical role to play in this regard.”

Responding after receiving the items, Ajibola Keshinro, chief medical director, Apapa General Hospital, appreciate­d SIFAX Group for the kind response, adding such items will upscale the hospital’s capacity to respond well to its responsibi­lities.
