The efforts of Kaduna State Governor Uba Sani to strengthen healthcare delivery in the state have received a major boost with the completion of a state-of-the-art Cardiac Centre in Tudun Wada, Kaduna South Local Government Area.
The facility, a collaboration between the Kaduna State Government and the Muslim World League (MWL), is expected to be commissioned on Tuesday by the Secretary General of the League, Sheikh Mohammed Bin Abdulkarim Al-Issa.
In a statement issued on Saturday, the Director General of the Kaduna State Interfaith Bureau, Malam Tahir Umar Tahir, said the centre would provide advanced cardiovascular diagnosis, treatment and care to patients in Kaduna and beyond.
He said the facility would help reduce the number of Nigerians seeking cardiac treatment abroad, while stressing that it would be open to patients irrespective of their religious affiliation.
“The Cardiac Centre will provide advanced cardiovascular diagnosis, treatment and care which will substantially stem the tide of patients seeking medical treatment abroad,” Mr Tahir said.
