The company is chaired by General Abdulsalami Abubakar, former Head of State and recipient of the Grand Commander of the Order of the Federal Republic (GCFR). Developed under the Care365 Health Hub initiative, the Smart Care Deployment solution combines mobile clinic services with digital health monitoring technologies and telemedicine capabilities.

The mobile clinic will deliver on-site medical consultations, basic treatment, routine health screenings, immunisation services, and immediate emergency response. It will also enable patients to consult specialist doctors remotely whenever advanced care is required, as well as complement services at the UNIZIK Medical Centre, expanding healthcare coverage beyond conventional clinic spaces.

By bringing medical services directly to students and staff, the initiative is expected to improve access to healthcare, encourage preventive medical check-ups, reduce pressure on existing facilities, and promote early diagnosis and treatment.

Speaking on the significance of the development, the director of the UNIZIK Medical Centre, Dr Jane Nkoli Ezeonu, commended both the vice-chancellor and SiliconHub Limited for introducing what she described as a transformative innovation in the university’s healthcare system.

She noted that the digital health monitoring component will support data-driven planning and more efficient healthcare delivery, establishing a modern and scalable model that could serve as a benchmark for tertiary institutions across Nigeria.

The donation underscores the enduring commitment of alumni and strategic partners to the advancement of their alma mater. With the deployment of this advanced mobile clinic, Nnamdi Azikiwe University has taken a significant step toward integrating technology and healthcare to create a safer, healthier, and more responsive campus environment under the leadership of Professor Anyaehie.
