President Bola Tinubu has commissioned the ultra-modern Bola Tinubu Complex at the Federal Medical Centre (FMC), Abuja, as part of efforts to strengthen specialist healthcare services and reduce medical tourism in Nigeria.
Tinubu, represented by the medical director of FMC Abuja, Prof. Saad Ahmed, during the unveiling of the facility on Friday, described the project as a major milestone in improving quality healthcare delivery nationwide, NAN reports.
According to him, the project reflects the federal government’s commitment to repositioning the healthcare sector toward more efficient, accessible and quality healthcare service delivery for Nigerians across the country.
“The commissioning of this complex demonstrates the importance Mr President attaches to the healthcare sector and his unwavering commitment towards ensuring accessible and quality healthcare for Nigerians,” he said.
He said the complex was strategically designed to enhance specialist clinical services and reduce the increasing trend of Nigerians travelling abroad for medical treatment and other specialised healthcare services.
“With this development, Nigerians will have greater access to quality healthcare services while strengthening the nation’s capacity to reduce medical tourism abroad,” he added.
