The Federal Government has mapped up strategies and modalities to build a world-class Military Hospital to cater for the military personnel, veterans and their families.
This was disclosed by Dr Abubakar Kana, the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Defence, in a statement on Wednesday.
Kana said that part of the steps taken to achieve the plans was the move to reform the military health services in Nigeria.
He said the ministry had also put together a workshop for all stakeholders to discuss the roadmap toward achieving the anticipated reformation.
According to him, the workshop which is billed to hold in Abuja on Thursday will be chaired by the Minister of Defence, retired Maj.-Gen. Bashir Magashi.
“The Chief of Defence Staff and Service Chiefs, as well as the US Ambassador to Nigeria and strategic health partners, will be in attendance,” he said.
