Equipments delivered to each state LMCU include; Generating sets, work stations, desktops/laptops computers, printers, photocopiers, scanners, projectors, print papers and metal shelves.
In his brief before the equipments were distributed, the National Coordinator of NSCIP; Pharm. Linus Odoemene thanked the Hon.
