I am honoured to announce my sponsorship of a landmark bill in the Senate, for the Establishment of a Federal Institute of Vision and Optical Research in Erema, Ogba-Egbema-Ndoni L.G.A, Rivers State. This pioneering institution will revolutionize vision and optical health research in Nigeria, marking a significant milestone as the first of its kind in the South-South Region.

By addressing pressing needs and driving innovation in eye care and technology, this institute will transform healthcare delivery in our nation. As Chairman of the Senate Committee on Health (Tertiary and Secondary) and Senator representing Rivers West Senatorial District, this bill embodies my commitment to our collective vision of a healthier, more prosperous future in achieving Universal Health Coverage.

I am proud to lead this initiative and look forward to its passage, which will have a lasting impact on our nation’s healthcare landscape. #SenIpaliboBanigo


SENATOR DR. IPALIBO HARRY BANIGO, SENATOR OF THE FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF NIGERIA.
