About 3000 people in Zamfara State, have benefited from the free health care programmes instituted by the National Women Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Dr Betta Edu, for the people of the state.

She said it is imperative to support the effort of Governor Bello Matawalle of Zamfara State in his quest to govern the state on the path of sustainable development and provide quality health care for the people of the state
She said one of the core factors that engender personal and public development is the quality of life provided by the healthcare system.
