The Federal Government has designated 154 health facilities across Nigeria to provide free treatment for women with obstetric complications.

The Coordinating Minister of Health and Social Welfare, Professor Ali Pate, announced this on Friday during an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today.

He stated that the selected facilities have adequate manpower, high standards, and modern equipment to deliver quality care.
