The hospital’s Chief Medical Director, Prof. Ahmed Umdagas revealed this in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Sunday in Zaria.

Umdagas stated that the institution’s Urology Centre of Excellence, which will deliver advanced urology services, is expected to be operational by the first quarter of 2025.

“By the first quarter of 2025, ABUTH will commence kidney transplants. What has been holding us back is a few infrastructure upgrades,” he said.

He added that most of the required machines and equipment were already in place, noting also that personnel have been adequately trained to deliver the services.
