President Sata visits Robiana Muteka at the University Teaching hospital
President Michael Sata this morning visited Robiana Muteka at the University Teaching Hospital.
Robiana recently underwent an operation to remove a 14.7 kilogramme tumor on his back.
President Sata said he wanted to personally see how Robiana was doing rather than depending on media reports on the progress of his healing process.
President Sata later asked Robiana’s mother to accompany him so that she could go and receive the money that the first lady had pledged towards Robiana’s upkeep in hospital.
The president who arrived at UTH at about 10:40hrs also took time to visit the Intensive Care Unit, admissions and pediatric wards.
President Sata who also signed in the visitor’s book indicated that the he was impressed with the way UTH was being looked after but noted that the institution needed more health personnel and funding.
The head of state was accompanied by the permanent secretaries from the ministries of health and community development Dr. Peter Mwaba and Alwyn Chomba.
And speaking to journalists soon after the President’s visit at UTH, health Permanent secretary Peter Mwaba noted under the Human resource strategic plan of 2005-2011governmnet has increased the number of health personnel from 23 thousand to 32 thousand.
The permanent secretary however added that the government still has a challenge of ensuring that it trains more health workers in the country in order to improve the health care system in the country.
Dr.Mwaba also indicated that the ministry needs to come up with an effective retention scheme that will ensure that the government keeps the people that trained in various medical professions.

What’s with the shiny suit?
I don’t like the President, but it was good to see him visit UTH so that he doesn’t forget how desperate the conditions are at our biggest Hospital in the Country. A major crime of most presidents is they are isolated from what is happening on the ground due to the nature of the job. Today is the first time I have said something positive about this guy called Sata.
# 2 No more he failed to prophesy in his own country…..People were killed in his own country.
Mr. Sata, you have a sweet spirit. Please continue giving hope to Robiana. What president. Keep it up.
I do not get it… who looks sick here Robiana or Ukwa?
how come he never visited Kunda?
Credit where it belongs. This is good Presidential behaviour and somehow I sense that he is not doing it just for the cameras. That’s great to see that from him.
Cheap politics, you will never deceive the country this time around.count yourself luck if you survive the up coming couple
Keep it up MCS. Good stuff.
14.7 kg sounds huge. Is that weight true. Imagine a 10kg bag of mealie meal plus half.
Anyway, it must have made the day of the young man to be visited by the president. Cheers Mr President, only mean well and dont play politics over other people’s misfortunes.
i have never seen a President with such a good heart. Mr President continue with the same spriti. U ar one in million with a human heart. U ve set a very gud example to the would be presidents in future.
