A statement by the agency’s spokesman Abdullahi Haruna said the centres would ensure availability of blood for medical emergencies and transfusions.

The statement said the agency’s director-general, Saleh Yuguda, reiterated government’s commitment to address blood shortage in the country and  the initiative would help save lives.

“We are working tirelessly to ensure that blood needs are adequately addressed, and this initiative is a significant step towards achieving that goal.

“NBSA has partnered with the Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) to establish a formidable blood bank at the Corp’s medical facility.
