COMMENTS FROM BENEFICIARIES OF OSSAP- MDGs CGS PROJECTS AND PROGRAMMES 4. The whole community is very happy with this health facility. We are happy because in the whole of this area, there is no single health facility, except this one. I can almost say that even children unborn of this community are happy 1. The MDGs clinic has helped a lot, because in the past, we had no beds to admit with this facility because this is the first time in the whole of my life that I am patients, even when the situation requires that they be admitted here, we seeing this, so we are very grateful. were forced to keep them at their homes, but now we have enough beds for - Bulus Madaki (Community Leader, Sufa, LGA) admission without stress. We didn’t have a laboratory for tests and other things but now we do even blood transfusion here without referring our patients to 5. If you look at water coverage before the MDGs intervention, I think the statistics anywhere, where they had to travel almost seven kilometers before. is about 40 percent coverage, but with the MDGs programme in place now, we - Danladi Lavogimti (Officer In Charge, PHC, Kasuwan Ladi, Ardo-Kola LGA) want to tell you that there is no ward in the state that you will go now that you wouldn’t see the presence of MDGs, in terms of water, and more than 10 water 2. Before the renovation, I can say the place was in tatters and it was not clean, schemes that have been put in place. So by my own assessment in terms of but now it has changed, we now have new beds and new equipment that were rural coverage, and what we have been able to put in place through the MDGs brought in by the MDGs people. They have helped us and renovated the whole Conditional Grant Scheme, I will say at least, we have been able to increase place, and now we receive both out and in-patients. They are also supplying us water access from that 40 percent to 70 percent. drugs, which we give to the patients free. It makes our job easy, because our - Ajiya S. Garba (Focal Person, Taraba State MDGs) services are closer to our people, and they are coming in and out, also there are beds now, which wasn’t the case before. 6. We are very happy with this job done here by the MDGs, because children in - Benjamin Jatau (Officer In Charge, PHC, Nyvu, Donga LGA) this school had shortage of classes for study, and depended mostly on shades under trees. Once it rained they would run home and not return to school again 3. The first thing I will say is that we are grateful to MDGs for giving us this water, that day. Now that we have these classes most of the children can now have because before we had water scarcity, but now we have good drinking water, a decent place to study, the classes have also been provided with benches ACHIEVEMENTS OF and we no longer experience water related diseases, so we are very grateful for enough for the children, so all we can say is thank you and pray that there will this. be the will and means to do same for other communities that are in need.
