President Tinubu and Gov Uba Sani during the commissioning of projects in Kaduna
Governor Uba Sani of Kaduna State has named a newly completed specialist hospital after President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, in recognition of his leadership and commitment to national development.
The Bola Ahmed Tinubu Specialist Hospital, unveiled on Thursday during the President’s visit to inaugurate key projects across the state, houses nine wings, including maternal and child health, radiology and imaging, intensive care, and special care units.
At the event, Governor Sani disclosed that the Nigerian Nuclear Regulatory Authority had approved the establishment of a cancer treatment and nuclear facility within the hospital complex. He, however, appealed to President Tinubu to assist in actualising the cancer centre.
“That’s the only thing missing,” the governor said. “We are seeking Mr. President’s intervention to help us complete this critical component.”
In his response, President Tinubu praised the Kaduna governor for his vision and people-focused governance.
“We’ve witnessed progress. You prioritise people. It is only a far-sighted leader who cares about his people that can establish this for their health care needs. I am very proud of what you are doing,” he said.
“I can assure you that our intervention is not in vain, and we will grant it.” (AriseNews TV)
