He added that the hospitals were sanctioned for employing uncertified medical personnel, noting that the closure did not affect in-patients.
He said, “The hospitals were shut by Health Facility Monitoring and Accreditation Team for operating without a licence, forged licence, unqualified staff or in an unhygienic environment according to Health management.
“We also discovered some uncertified health workers, who treat patients and perform medical procedures only to leave the country when complications arise.
“We, therefore, call on community stakeholders, religious bodies and individuals to show interest in activities in their localities, especially health.
