Concerns have been raised over the deteriorating condition of the Iberekodo Primary Health Centre (PHC) in the Ibeju-Lekki Local Government Area of Lagos State.
This followed a recent visit by advocacy group, Tracka and highlighted in a statement released by MonITng on Saturday.
Drawing attention to the situation, the group stated: "This is Iberekodo Primary Health Centre in Ibeju-Lekki, Lagos State as discovered during a Tracka team visit."
The facility, which reportedly serves thousands of residents in the area, was described as being in a state of severe neglect.
According to the organisation, "The only PHC serving thousands of residents has been abandoned to decay, denying the community access to safe and dignified healthcare."
Dear Gov @jidesanwoolu, Hon. @Olowajaja,
Iberekodo PHC in Ibeju-Lekki LGA, Lagos state has been in a sorry state for more than a year. The walls are broken, the ceiling collapsed and the wards are unfit for treatment.

The group said its observations revealed multiple structural and operational deficiencies that have rendered the centre unsafe for effective medical care.
Detailing the conditions on ground, the statement said: "The Tracka team observed that the facility has no functional medical equipment, a broken roof, leaking ceilings, and rooms that are unsafe and unfit for treatment."
These conditions, it noted, pose serious risks to both patients and health workers.
The absence of basic utilities was also highlighted as a major challenge.
"There is no running water in the centre, making it impossible to flush toilets. Health workers are forced to walk long distances every day just to fetch water before they can attend to patients, exposing both staff and residents to serious health risks."
Despite these challenges, the group noted that the health centre remains in use due to a lack of alternatives.
"Despite these deplorable conditions, residents continue to depend on this centre because there is no alternative healthcare facility nearby," the statement said.
It further drew attention to the impact of the situation on vulnerable groups within the community. "Pregnant women, children, the elderly, and other vulnerable residents are left with no choice but to seek care in an environment that threatens their health and dignity," it added.
Addressing the authorities, the group said: "Dear Gov Jide Sanwoolu(Lagos State governor and Hon. Sesan Olowa (Ibeju Lekki LGA Chairman), this level of neglect is unacceptable. It called for urgent intervention to address the challenges facing the facility.
In its demand, Tracka stated: "We call on the Lagos State Government, National Primary Healthcare Development Agency, and Federal Ministry of Health, Nigeria to urgently prioritise the renovation, equipping, and full restoration of Iberekodo PHC for the benefit of the people."
