The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has pledged its commitment to organize free surgeries for Nigerians under the Nur-Saudi Voluntary Campaign in Nigeria.
Saudi Arabia’s Ambassador, Faisal Alghamdi, made the pledge during the Kingdom’s 93rd National Day celebration which took place at his residence in Abuja.
While making the pledge, the Ambassador recalled that the Custodian of the two Holy Mosques, King Salman Al Saud, approved the Nur-Saudi Voluntary Campaign in Nigeria in 2022.
He said: “The campaign will be executed through King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center (KSRelief) and it will be executed in stages.
“The first stage had been executed which targeted combating blindness and its causes, in addition to a large number of open-heart and urology surgeries.
“In this regard, I would like to congratulate the parents of the Nigerian conjoined twins on the successful separation surgery.
“The surgery done will make it the 56th surgery performed by the Kingdom in separating conjoined twins from across the world.”
He spoke about the bilateral relations between Nigeria and Saudi Arabia and said that the historic bonds between both countries had been growing tremendously since 1961.
He said the ties would keep growing under the government of President Bola Tinubu.
He said: “I wish him, his government and the people of Nigeria good luck and success.
