Adjusting to change is never an easy thing which is why there is so much criticism and complain following the introduction of residency cards popularly called Kaadi Igbe Ayo in Ondo state.
Few days ago, the Ondo State Government mandated all heads of public hospitals and health centers in the state to enforce the use of the card in their various locations in a statement issued by the Ondo State Commissioner of Information, Kayode Akinmade and handed down by the Commissioner for Health, Dr. Dayo Adeyanju.
The statement made it clear that residency card scheme was not aimed at making money from the people of the state, as is being speculated but rather to account for those benefiting from the free medical services provided by the government.
According to Adeyanju, residents of the state who have the card, especially pregnant women and children from age one to five, will receive free medical services while those without the card would be made to pay stipends for the medical services rendered to them.
He therefore encouraged those who had registered for the card to visit their registration centers to collect them.
