Oba of Benin, Omo N’ Oba N’ Edo Uku Akpolokpolo has commended Delta State
\nGovernor, Dr. Emmanuel Uduaghan on the recent successful kidney
\ntransparent carried out by the Delta State University Teaching Hospital,
\n(DELSUTH), Oghara.<\/p>\n

The Benin Monarch made the commendation when Governor Uduaghan led top
\ngovernment officials to pay condolence visit on him over the death of his
\nwife, the late Queen Esther Erediauwa on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

He told the governor, “before you start talking, let me commend you for
\nwhat I saw in the newspaper. I read that you took part in a kidney
\ntransplant operation (that took place at the Delta State University
\nTeaching Hospital.) I think I should commend you for that.”<\/p>\n

Governor Uduaghan, a medical doctor, was among a team of medical experts
\nthat carried out the first kidney transplant at the State Teaching
\nHospital recently.<\/p>\n

Uduaghan in his response, while also commending the Monarch for
\nacknowledging the feat recorded at the hospital, said, ” what we are just
\ntrying to prove is that whatever that could be done outside Nigeria
\n(medically) can also be done here in Nigeria.”<\/p>\n

Fielding questions from reporters, at the palace, Uduaghan noted, ” first
\nI give the glory to God because that kidney transplant really took us
\nquite sometime to get to where we are.<\/p>\n

“It just shows that with the will we can do anything in this country. I am
\nhappy that the whole country is recognizing that particular kidney
\ntransplant that we have done.<\/p>\n

“The truth is that in that hospital there have been a lot more than the
\nkidney transplant, a lot of things that have not been done , that we have
\ndone and a lot more will be done and I am very happy when the Oba
\nmentioned it.”<\/p>\n

Governor Uduaghan commiserating with the Monarch on the death of his wife
\nsaid, ” Your Royal Majesty, we know that she has been with you for a very
\nlong time. You have become one. So it is a part of you that God has taken
\nbut we cannot question God.<\/p>\n

“We thank God for giving her to you. We thank God for seeing her to her
\nold age. We pray that God will give you the strength to bear the loss. We
\npray that God will give you the ability to deal with all the issues.<\/p>\n

“We want to let you know that we are all in grief and in pain.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
