<\/p>\nBostaji made the pledge in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Sunday in Abuja.<\/p>\n
The envoy said that in 2020, the embassy would take more of its already existing health campaign, in the area of eye treatment and eye operation to other parts of the country so that every Nigerian would benefit.<\/p>\n
\u201cBased on the kingdom\u2019s interest to do more and aid the Nigerian citizens in humanitarian activities, the medical campaign has been held in Nasarawa and Oyo states.<\/p>\n
