PRESIDENT TINUBU APPROVES IMMEDIATE UPGRADE OF KEY HEALTH INFRASTRUCTURE ACROSS NIGERIA'S SIX GEO-POLITICAL ZONES 



President Bola Tinubu has approved the immediate upgrade of key health infrastructure and equipment across all six geo-political zones in line with his administration’s vision of overhauling the health and social welfare sector for enhanced service delivery to all Nigerians.

To advance this landmark effort, the Federal Ministry of Health and Social Welfare in collaboration with the Nigeria Sovereign Investment Authority (NSIA) will carry out the comprehensive upgradation of cancer-treatment infrastructure and other critical developments in six tertiary hospitals across several geopolitical zones, in addition to the full renovation and expansion of prior investments to improve broad-based access to high-quality healthcare in all six geo-political zones of the federation.


The following teaching hospitals across geo-political zones have been marked for the establishment of oncology and nuclear medicine centres per facility as part of President Tinubu's bid to ensure that world class cancer diagnosis and care is accessible across the country:


(1) University of Benin Teaching Hospital


(2) Ahmadu Bello University Teaching Hospital


(3) University of Nigeria (Nsukka) Teaching Hospital


(4) Federal Teaching Hospital, Katsina


(5) University of Jos Teaching Hospital


(6) Lagos University Teaching Hospital


The following ten critical health care service expansion projects across the fields of radiology, clinical pathology, medical and radiation oncology, and cardiac catheterization will be carried out in ten hospitals across all geo-political zones:


(1) North-West: Reference Hospital, Kaduna — (Radiology, clinical pathology, medical and radiation oncology)


(2) South-East: Medical Diagnostic Centre Complex, Enugu — (Radiology, clinical pathology, medical & radiation oncology)

(10) North-East: Federal Medical Centre, Nguru — (Radiology and clinical pathology)


These critical projects, set to be delivered within 12-18 months, will improve screening and diagnostics for communicable and non-communicable diseases; reduce mortality rates and improve outcomes for non-communicable diseases; create considerable employment opportunities for clinical, administrative, and managerial personnel across Nigeria's six geo-political zones, all while building the capacity of clinical personnel in advanced procedures, diagnostics and treatment modalities, in accordance with the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Tinubu.
