Religious leaders urged to promote blood donation

Wilson Akubo, a pastor at the Family Worship Centre, Abuja, has called on fellow religious leaders to encourage their members to donate blood.

Mr Akubo represented the senior pastor of the church, Serah Omakwu, at an engagement with religious leaders as Nigeria marks its 3rd National Blood Donors’ Day in Abuja.

He emphasised the importance of saving lives, noting that “We as a church have been helping in saving lives by donating blood for the past 20 years.”
