Borno State Governor Prof. Babagana Umara Zulum, has doled out a hefty amount of N13.9 million and car gift to a 65-year old medical doctor, Dr. Isa Akinbode, from Ogun State, who has dedicated his life to Borno State.
Dr. Isa Akinbode’s sense of commitment and hardwork earned him the attention of the governor of the state after he served for 22 years before he retired in 2016 at Monguno General Hospital in Borno.
The doctor decided to stick around and serve the hospital after his retirement in spite of the news that he was once abducted and released by Boko Haram in Monguno.
Zulum said: “These (people like Dr Akinbode) are the kinds of people that need to be encouraged. He lives in Monguno despite all the security problems. My predecessor had during his visit to Monguno directed that he should be engaged on contract basis; unfortunately due to some bureaucratic procedures, his reengagement has not been formalised. In fulfilment of the promise of my boss, I decided to re-engage him on contract basis retrospectively. We are paying all his entitlements/salary in arrears. I am giving him a cheque of N13.9m. I have also approved his reengagement from 2016, being the date of his retirement.”
