Ogun State is set to open its newly renovated 250-bed Medical Center of Excellence in Oke-Mosan, Abeokuta, this December.
Governor Dapo Abiodun made this announcement during a facility inspection, noting that the hospital was initiated but left unfinished by the previous government. It will function as a “spoke” of the Abuja Medical Center of Excellence, which is managed by Healthshare Services Limited and receives international backing from King’s College Hospital.

Abiodun pointed out that the project previously faced significant structural, electrical, and engineering issues, but the current progress is advanced. Work on landscaping, exterior finishes, entrance canopies, and oxygen equipment installation is progressing well. He has instructed contractors to ramp up their workforce to ensure the hospital opens within the next two to three weeks.

The governor highlighted that, once operational, the facility will greatly reduce medical tourism and minimize the transfer of critical patients to Lagos or other states. Its location in Abeokuta will provide easy access for patients from Ogun and surrounding areas like Oyo, Osun, and Ekiti.
