HC Deb 12 February 1947 vol 433 cc63-4W
84. Captain Field

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what is the present use of the military hospitals at Lagos, Abeokuta. Ibadan, Zaria and Enugu, Nigeria.

Mr. Creech Jones

The military hospital at Lagos is still in use as such. The military hospital at Abeokuta has been con- verted into a barracks for an infantry battalion and that at Enugu has been bought by the Nigerian Government. The hospital at Ibadan is vacant and I am communicating with my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for War about its future use. The only other military hospital is at Keduna and is still in use as such.
