Thank you to the Federal Minister of Health, the primary supporter [00:08:39] the state, who presented us with a heartfelt [00:08:42] gift for the people of Gedaref state. [00:08:46] We, in the state government, are ready to complete [00:08:50] hospital [00:08:52] with everything it needs so that our citizens can enjoy it, and we wish them [00:08:56] abundant health in these [00:09:00] exceptional circumstances. Gedaref state has a hand that works and a hand [00:09:04] that carries weapons. We have not stopped our development [00:09:07] projects for the people of this state in terms of available [00:09:10] services, which are health, education, and others. [00:09:25] In these celebrations in Gedaref state, in welcoming His Excellency [00:09:29] the Federal Minister of Health, Professor Haitham Mohamed [00:09:32] Ibrahim, and starting from [00:09:35] the Year of Recovery 2026, the strategy [00:09:38] 2026 [00:09:39] - 2030, [00:09:43] in the state of Gedaref, [00:09:45] we are launching these days [00:09:47] and we say [00:09:50] it is a real beginning for localizing treatment in the state [00:09:53] of Gedaref, starting from the Heart Center, the center [00:09:57] of the late Abdul Karim Aboudah for heart diseases and surgery. [00:10:01] edifice is a tripartite [00:10:05] partnership between the community, represented in [00:10:08] the community of Abayo and the sons [00:10:14] of Abdul Karim Aboudah, and between the Ministry of Health of Gedaref state, [00:10:17] represented by the state Ministry of Health, and between the Federal Ministry [00:10:21] of Health as a key partner [00:10:24] in localizing treatment [00:10:27] work, in fact, started many [00:10:30] years ago, and God [00:10:33] willing, it will be crowned today with its complete completion, God [00:10:36] willing, in receiving patients with heart diseases and surgery. [00:10:39] In fact, this center greatly alleviates [00:10:43] the burden on patients in Gedaref state [00:10:46] and in neighboring states, in some adjacent localities [00:10:50] to Gedaref state. And God willing, it will bring [00:10:54] health and wellness to our citizens in Gedaref state. We thank [00:10:57] all those who carried out this great work. [00:11:01] In fact, the cost of this project is more than 15 billion [00:11:05] pounds. We say that the proportion between the three parties [00:11:09] is the state, the federal [00:11:11] health, [00:11:14] and civil society, represented by the community of Abayo, [00:11:18] the man of righteousness and charity, Faisal Abdel Karim [00:11:20] Aboudah. May God accept this work from them. [00:11:23] And in fact, for this work, [00:11:27] Gedaref state has been committed to localizing treatment in all 12 [00:11:30] localities. Just yesterday, [00:11:34] a kidney dialysis center was opened in [00:11:37] the Fashqa area, in Al-Shawwak city. This work [00:11:40] is, in fact, an addition [00:11:43] on citizens from the burden of traveling from [00:11:46] distant centers to nearby [00:11:48] centers in [00:11:52] almost the administrative umbrella for health services. [00:11:57] in 2026, started with the health map [00:12:00] for all centers, health units, and rural [00:12:03] hospitals, and we began rehabilitation, [00:12:07] and praise be to God, and their rehabilitation and provision [00:12:11] with the necessary basics and equipment to truly [00:12:15] reduce and decrease [00:12:18] maternal and neonatal mortality [00:12:22] rates. And just yesterday, [00:12:25] the equipment for primary health care was launched, and to complete [00:12:29] that role in environmental health [00:12:32] and reducing disease [00:12:34] vectors. Also, the state [00:12:37] of Gedaref expresses [00:12:41] Sudan, in word and deed, [00:12:43] and Gedaref [00:12:47] Sudan, God willing. [00:12:49] was carried out under the patronage of the government of Gedaref state and with [00:12:53] great attention from [00:13:08] the governor. We started primary health care with the health map and strengthening health midwives in rural hospitals to prepare them. This is to reduce maternal and child mortality rates during childbirth. This work involves full cooperation from all relevant parties. [00:13:12] الصحيه من مستشفيات ريفيه للماكز [00:13:15] الاعداد وذلك لتقليل نسبه الوفاه [00:13:18] الامهات والاطفال في الولاده وهذا العمل فيه [00:13:22] تضافر كامل بجميع الجهات المنوض بها. [00:13:25] Primary health care, reproductive health, [00:13:28] and the Federal Ministry [00:13:31] of Health, which has not stopped providing services and assistance [00:13:34] to reduce maternal mortality rates. In Gedaref [00:13:38] state, we have truly provided most centers and health [00:13:42] units with basic services [00:13:44] and supplies, including medical equipment, [00:13:47] and trained cadres and midwives, to reach [00:13:51] this level and reduce mortality rates to the lowest. [00:13:55] And Gedaref state is actually currently [00:13:58] in the process of developing school health [00:14:01] and providing school health [00:14:04] primary health care for school children, with God's [00:14:08] help and success, God willing. [00:14:22] And that is on the occasion of the opening of the heart [00:14:25] hospital in Abayo neighborhood, that [00:14:29] center which, God willing, will provide great service to the people [00:14:32] of Gedaref and its surroundings, and all [00:14:36] the region and all the states, almost [00:14:39] after the impact of the war, all the states, especially Gezira state, [00:14:42] the heart hospital of Gezira [00:14:45] and Khartoum. So we hope that the state government, which [00:14:48] thankfully provided, meaning the Ministry of Finance [00:14:51] in Gedaref, and all the cadres, [00:14:55] all the equipment, including cardiac catheterization and complete equipment [00:14:58] for laboratories, may God reward them with all good, [00:15:02] and we thank everyone who came and attended and participated. [00:15:17] On behalf of all of them, for the late righteous son of the region, [00:15:21] one of its dignitaries and solid pillars, the late Abdul Karim, [00:15:28] who planted the seeds of goodness and departed, leaving behind a continuous charity that echoes with every [00:15:31] heartbeat, [00:15:35] hospital. May God have mercy on him [00:15:40] and bless his descendants and offspring, who follow [00:15:43] in his footsteps, carrying the banner of goodness, righteousness, [00:15:46] and piety. My dear brother Faisal Abdul Karim and his [00:15:50] kind brothers, [00:15:53] the late departed set the finest examples that money builds [00:15:56] and healing perishes, but what was for God is what [00:16:00] remains, and it [00:16:03] grows. His Excellency the Governor of Gedaref [00:16:06] and the father. [00:16:13] Giving, abundance, growth, and development, and the love [00:16:16] of Sudan as a homeland, loyalty, and identity. [00:16:19] My brother, the Federal Minister [00:16:24] of Health, always present with his tours, [00:16:27] his efforts, and his fingerprints [00:16:30] across Sudan in general, to all esteemed guests, [00:16:34] your presence today among us, and enduring [00:16:37] hardship for the inauguration of this hospital, reflects the keen interest [00:16:40] of the supreme leadership in the health of citizens in all [00:16:44] parts of Sudan and confirms that the people of Gedaref in general, [00:16:47] and the people of Abayo [00:16:48] in particular, are present in the conscience [00:16:52] of the state. Your people in Abayo, Mr. [00:16:56] Minister and Mr. Governor, have presented, through this project, [00:17:00] a living model and an example to be followed [00:17:02] in popular solidarity and social responsibility. [00:17:05] It also represents a model to be emulated in the integration of popular [00:17:09] effort with official effort, represented by the state [00:17:12] government and the Federal Ministry of Health [00:17:14] and [00:17:17] all assisting ministries in the state to bear fruit [00:17:20] the establishment of this towering edifice standing before you today. [00:17:23] So, special thanks to Professor Dr. Haitham [00:17:27] for this support, and special thanks to the state governor, and special [00:17:30] thanks to the state Minister of Health, and special thanks to Professor Najaf [00:17:34] Mohamed, the Minister of Finance, for what they have provided in support and assistance [00:17:38] for this towering edifice to see the light and for us to live this unique [00:17:42] and unprecedented moment now. [00:17:56] for what they have done. And our brothers in [00:17:59] Gedaref state, represented by His Excellency the Governor [00:18:03] and all his staff, [00:18:06] who sacrificed the most precious [00:18:10] blessed day [00:18:14] great edifice. We, at [00:18:18] the late Abdul Karim Aboudah Center, God willing, [00:18:21] promise our people [00:18:24] in Gedaref state, in eastern [00:18:28] states, and even neighboring countries, that the Abdul [00:18:32] Karim Aboudah Center, God willing, will be [00:18:35] a beacon for providing specialized medical [00:18:39] services that heart patients need, God [00:18:42] willing. These distinguished medical [00:18:46] services will be found by heart [00:18:49] patients in this blessed place, God willing. [00:18:52] Many people view the opening [00:18:56] of the Abdul Karim Aboudah Center as providing [00:18:59] many, many things. Meaning, in the past, our ambulances would leave [00:19:03] here and go to Madani, go to Marawi, go to Omdurman, [00:19:06] incurring huge economic costs on the state [00:19:09] and on individuals. But we [00:19:14] blessed edifice as [00:19:17] bringing life to the hearts [00:19:20] of patients, because, as you know, those with [00:19:24] strokes and heart [00:19:26] not receive this [00:19:29] the right time, meaning if someone has a stroke and does not [00:19:35] the right time, after that, the catheterization [00:19:38] procedure may [00:19:41] cases it may be a foregone [00:19:45] center in this city [00:19:48] and providing this distinguished service [00:19:52] to our people in Gedaref state and neighboring states, we look [00:19:56] at it as bringing life to the hearts [00:19:59] of these patients, and God willing. [00:20:02] Today, [00:20:06] the catheterization lab and intensive care unit were inaugurated, and we [00:20:09] will spare no effort, God willing, until [00:20:13] this edifice is completed and what it aims [00:20:16] for is achieved, with the establishment [00:20:20] in the near future, God willing. [00:20:23] We also aspire, [00:20:26] Mr. Minister, Mr. Professor Salah Al-Basha, [00:20:30] that we have provided cardiac catheterization [00:20:33] service, but we hope to provide [00:20:37] at Abdul Karim Aboudah services [00:20:39] that are not [00:20:42] Sudan, which is, Professor Salah, like RTD, [00:20:46] which is the treatment for patients suffering from [00:20:50] heart muscle failure, and there are many of them. So, God [00:20:53] willing, we aspire [00:20:56] to provide these services at Abdul Karim [00:20:59] Aboudah Center in the near future, God willing, with direct [00:21:03] support from our brothers in the Federal Ministry of Health and the National [00:21:07] Center for Heart Diseases and Surgery and Gedaref [00:21:10] state. [00:21:14] Yes, this is a great [00:21:17] center, but the most important and greatest [00:21:23] this great edifice, and we, God [00:21:26] willing, promise you that this edifice will [00:21:30] progress and flourish, God willing, and we will preserve it. [00:21:44] It is my pleasure, on behalf of the National Heart Center, to join [00:21:47] you today in this great occasion, [00:21:51] with the opening of the Abdul Karim, the late Abdul Karim [00:21:55] Aboudah Center for heart [00:21:57] services and critical cardiac care in Gedaref. This is [00:22:01] an occasion we are very proud [00:22:04] of and have been waiting for [00:22:06] for a long time. It is a new step in the path [00:22:10] of localizing heart services and strengthening decentralization [00:22:13] and bringing specialized and critical cardiac care [00:22:19] center at this time holds special importance, [00:22:22] not only because it is a new addition to the health infrastructure in [00:22:26] Gedaref, but also because it is part of a national [00:22:29] vision to rebuild [00:22:32] Sudan. Before the war, [00:22:36] 88% of heart services were provided [00:22:39] in the Muslim quarter, now 90% of heart [00:22:42] by the states, [00:22:46] in line with the current needs of the population and the exceptional circumstances [00:22:50] the country is experiencing. This is where the importance [00:22:53] of the late Abdul Karim [00:22:56] Aboudah Heart Center in Gedaref lies, as it [00:22:59] represents an important link in the network of heart services [00:23:02] and provides critical cardiac care, including interventional [00:23:06] cardiac catheterization services, allowing for faster handling [00:23:09] of cases whose treatment outcomes largely [00:23:13] depend on the time factor, which our brothers said, folks, [00:23:16] if heart catheterization passes 12 hours, [00:23:20] it often doesn't have much importance, and if it passes 48 hours, they tell you not [00:23:24] to do it. And [00:23:27] specifically, cases of acute coronary syndrome, [00:23:30] which is what is called angina, and critical [00:23:34] cardiac cases that require urgent specialized [00:23:37] admission. Let's complete what [00:23:40] Al-Eshaa Allah have requested, to represent an important step in improving [00:23:43] access to care, reducing delays, and providing treatment. The center [00:23:47] will also play a pivotal role in enhancing the capacity of the heart [00:23:51] system to deal with an increasing number of patients, [00:23:54] especially in light of the displacement movement and the changing [00:23:57] demographic and health map that [00:24:00] the war circumstances have produced. Distinguished audience, we, at [00:24:04] the National Heart Center, look at the late [00:24:07] Abdul Karim [00:24:11] Gedaref as part of the complete heart network and not [00:24:15] as a separate facility from other centers. The goal is not to establish new units [00:24:18] and centers, but rather to build a cohesive [00:24:22] network based on reliable access [00:24:25] the right time, organized referral, and continuity [00:24:29] of treatment and follow-up. [00:24:33] And that there should [00:24:36] be full coordination between these three centers, which are [00:24:40] Kassala, Gedaref, and Madani, God willing. [00:24:43] From this platform, I would like to emphasize that human resources are the most [00:24:48] of this achievement. The National Heart Center will support [00:24:52] training and will be a pioneer and stand by you with all [00:24:55] strength in enhancing the capabilities of qualified cadres [00:24:58] at the center to ensure the continuity of service [00:25:01] and its development. On this occasion, I would like to express [00:25:04] our sincere thanks and appreciation to the family [00:25:07] of the late Abdul Karim Aboudah, and perhaps [00:25:10] now in his grave, his heart will be illuminated [00:25:14] with reward, God willing, and continuous charity. [00:25:17] I specifically thank [00:25:20] my brother Faisal and his noble [00:25:22] brothers. [00:25:28] I also thank the Federal Ministry of Health, headed by [00:25:32] the mighty minister, Dr. [00:25:34] Haitham Mohamed Ibrahim, who is a brother, [00:25:37] and a professor, [00:25:40] and a minister, [00:25:43] and everything. I never needed him for anything without [00:25:48] says no, and he is the person who [00:25:51] has been a blessing. [00:25:55] And to the Federal Ministry of Finance, [00:25:58] the State Ministry of Finance, Gedaref State [00:26:01] Government, which has been a pioneer with His Excellency the Governor [00:26:05] and his staff, [00:26:09] and Dr. Ahmed Al-Amin, may God protect [00:26:12] them, in supporting the project from the beginning. They were truly [00:26:16] keen, meaning they put people's [00:26:19] things in order, meaning the state government was keen and followed up [00:26:23] on the matter, and I never worry when I receive a call from Ahmed, [00:26:27] Dr. Ahmed. We [00:26:29] also thank the partners in the health sector, the organizations, [00:26:32] and the supporting bodies, everyone who contributed to equipping the center or providing [00:26:36] technical support. Special thanks to my brother, [00:26:40] my son, and my younger brother, Dr. Said [00:26:44] Mohamed Omar, for his follow-up, and [00:26:47] to all staff at the center, including administrators, [00:26:51] technicians, nurses, pharmacists, and all cadres [00:26:56] this building from a building [00:26:58] into [00:27:01] a center, which, God willing, will provide service. Brothers and sisters, we look forward to [00:27:05] Gedaref center being an important focal point for critical [00:27:09] cardiac care and interventional catheterization service in the state, [00:27:12] and to work within the heart system in an integrated [00:27:16] and relational manner. The center ensures good referral, exchange [00:27:19] of expertise, continuity of care, [00:27:23] this center and to forgive [00:27:26] and have mercy [00:27:29] on our father, the late Abdul Karim Aboudah, and to [00:27:32] make it a continuous charity for him and to illuminate [00:27:35] his grave and expand his resting place, God willing.
