The objective is to improve health recovery by at least 50 percent.

Women mobilised under the association, “Action Plus Feminine Bikok”, abbreviated Act+Feb, have raised financial and material support to salvage Pouma District Hospital and seven health centers in the Pouma Subdivision.

A fundraiser by the association held in Douala’s administrative quarter Bonanjo on Sunday, December 5, 2021, during which a cross section of goodwill individuals and elite of Pouma generously contributed cash and in kind to support the burden for improved health care in the heart of the women.

“We are mobilised to ensure that our main health structure, the Pouma District Hospital, and the seven health centers in the subdivision receive our minimal support that should help them in the provision of improved health services to the local population,” the President General of Act+Feb, Essombe Bikok Marie, told CT although she was silent about the total amount that was raised.

Delighted by the gesture of the women, the Director of Pouma District Hospital, Atangana Zibi, said “It will contribute to strengthening the action of the State to cater for the health of the population by at least fifty percent, enhance on-going rehabilitation of the hospital structure, re-equip the operation unit and help in the functioning of the hospital vehicle.” He advised the population to go early for health services than wait until their situation should worsen.
