The Muslim World League has announced plans to build a cutting-edge cardiac centre in Kaduna, South West Nigeria. The facility, set to be unveiled by the League's Secretary General Sheikh Mohammed Bin Abdulkarim Al-Issa, will offer top-tier cardiovascular diagnosis, treatment and care. This initiative is part of Governor Uba Sani's broader efforts to bolster the state's healthcare system.

Since taking office, Sani has made significant strides in healthcare, including upgrading 255 primary healthcare centres to Level 2 standards. He has also expanded maternal, newborn, child and adolescent healthcare services, improved immunisation and disease surveillance, and bolstered community outreach programmes.

The new cardiac centre will complement existing tertiary healthcare facilities in Kaduna, such as the recently inaugurated Bola Ahmed Tinubu Specialist Hospital. This development is expected to reduce the number of patients seeking medical treatment abroad, thereby improving healthcare access and outcomes for Kaduna residents.
