The Chief Medical Director, Lagos State University Teaching Hospital (LASUTH), Prof. Adetokunbo Fabamwo, says the hospital’s obstetric unit – Ayinke House, records an average of 2,500 monthly childbirth deliveries.
Fabamwo made the disclosure in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Sunday in Lagos.
Ayinke House is a maternal healthcare facility located within the premises of LASUTH and reputed as Nigeria’s biggest maternity hospital after it was upgraded from an 80-bed facility to a 170-bed furnished with state-of-the-art medical equipment.
Fabamwo said delivery rate had declined compared to previous 3,000 per month child deliveries at the Ayinke House.
