On Sunday, Dec. 26th, 2021, the Speaker Imo State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Kennedy Ibeh, in his passion, has practically visited some hospitals in Obowo LGA of Imo State as part of the Christmas celebration with some sick persons (patients)in the hospitals, including those that had surgery bills of over N300,000 and more.

Moving from Chinonyerem hospital to Mercy Hospital Umulogho Obowo, the Speaker proceeded to Mc Lawrence Group Hospitals Umuariam Obowo, and others.

Receiving the payments, some of those Mr. Speaker paid their bills thanked him, Rt. Hon. Kennedy Ibeh, for celebrating Christmas in such a manner with them, some of them equally took some shots with Mr. Speaker.

Some of the Patients include but not only, Victoria Natherniel (Ehume Obowo) – had a successful surgery since September, Mrs. Chinonye Uche from Umuosochie Obowo, Favour Alozie – Ehume Obowo, Wale Emmanuel, Mrs. Roseline, Ogechi Augustine – Isiala Mbano, and many others.

Painfully, one of the patients had stayed at one of the hospitals visited, for more than one year; after delivering a new baby through surgery, the woman was unable to pay, from 2020 till today before Mr. Speaker paid all the debts/bills.

In addition to the payments made by the Speaker, Mr. Speaker, went into the spirit and prayed very well to some of the Patients, as the spirit led him.
