Minister of State for Health and Social Welfare, Dr. Iziaq Salako, has described the new healthcare infrastructure at the Federal Medical Centre (FMC), Jabi, Abuja, as a strategic move to reduce the number of Nigerians seeking medical treatment abroad.

The minister, who stated this yesterday during the commissioning of the new healthcare infrastructure in Abuja, highlighted the significance of the facilities in enhancing the country’s tertiary healthcare capabilities.

The additions include a 64-bed ward extension and a state-of-the-art clinical services complex with a dedicated renal unit. The new clinical services complex features 18 hemodialysis beds and is set to launch a renal transplantation programme in the coming weeks.

Dr. Salako said that the advancement is expected to significantly reduce the reliance on foreign medical services for critical care needs such as kidney transplants, the minister said.

“This development is a critical step towards reducing travel abroad by providing advanced medical care within the country. With facilities like these, we are ensuring that Nigerians can access world-class healthcare services without the need to travel overseas,” he said.
