According to the lawmaker, the items were purchased entirely with his personal funds. The donation was intended to upgrade the facility’s infrastructure, improve conditions for patients, and support healthcare workers serving the local community.
“I bought over 50 ceiling fans, over 40 standing fans, 50 orthopaedic mattresses,. Where are they?” he said.
He then challenged the hospital official to show him the mattresses he had purchased.
“How can you tell me this is the mattress I bought? Can you show the mattresses I bought? I bought them for my people,” he said.
The lawmaker also demanded to know the whereabouts of the ceiling and standing fans.
“Where are the ceiling fans? I bought more than 50 ceiling fans. Standing fans, I bought about 40. Where are they?” he asked.
