Tinubu Slashes Dialysis Cost In Federal Hospitals To ₦12,000 by Infoguy666(op): 9:54pm On Aug 18, 2025

President Bola Tinubu has approved a major reduction in the cost of kidney dialysis sessions in federal hospitals, cutting the fee from ₦50,000 to ₦12,000, News360 Nigeria reports.

Daniel Bwala, the president’s spokesperson, disclosed the development on Monday in a post via his X handle.

He explained that the initiative will begin in ten public hospitals before extending to federal medical centres and teaching hospitals across the country.

According to him, the move will bring relief to thousands of Nigerians suffering from kidney-related illnesses, many of whom cannot afford the high cost of treatment.

“The development, which will first commence in ten public hospitals, will provide relief to thousands of Nigerians battling kidney-related diseases, many of whom cannot pay for the dialysis.”

“More federal medical centres and teaching hospitals will be added before the end of the year to widen access nationwide,” Bwala stated.

He further noted that the decision reflects Tinubu’s commitment to improving access to affordable healthcare, recalling that the president had earlier approved free caesarean sections for pregnant women in federal hospitals to reduce maternal deaths.

This is a welcome development. Now, savings from PMS subsidy removal are gradually being invested in the health and well being of Nigerians. Kudos to Mr. President for this kind gesture.

Our problem In Nigeria is not President Tinubu…

Watch and see how this solution will turn into a big problem 🥲😰😢

Nigeria is the only country in the world where you will need to set up committees to monitor a problem solved if not , it will only lead to more problems

I won't believe anything this administration promises until I hear from the beneficiaries. After all, the promises they have been giving Nigerian, how many have they been able to fulfill? The APC led central government can promise u heaven and earth to raise your hope up with their false renewed hope mantral.

you can never believe it cos throughout your messiah’s 8 years you can’t point one single thing he has as legacy,the only thing is the credit anambra indigenes are getting monthly from the accrued interest for the money he saved.
Baba black will come on X tomorrow and criticize this laudable move,he can even say it is aimed at silencing opposition.

Okechinwadike:
and you believe it, you people are very easy to be deceive sorry to say it

you also can never believe how many of your brothers have enjoyed free education and waec registration since when he was governor in Lagos state too,ungrateful people…mention one thing that your messiah did for you in anambra.
