To mark International Women’s Day 2026, the FCT Health Services and Environment Secretariat offered free surgical care and palliatives to indigent women at Kuje General Hospital in Abuja.
Led by Mandate Secretary Dolapo Fasawe, the outreach supported seven mothers with free procedures under the Comprehensive Emergency Obstetric and Newborn Care Programme in line with policies of the Federal Ministry of Health (Nigeria).
The initiative also included distribution of food items, cash support, baby kits, and health supplies to patients, caregivers, and medical staff, reinforcing the government’s commitment to improving maternal health and supporting vulnerable families.
