About Us
The National Blood Service Agency (NBSA) is the government institution charged with the responsibility of regulating, coordinating, and providing safe, adequate and quality blood and blood products for transfusion in a cost-effective manner to all who may require it in Nigeria with an emphasis on voluntary non-remunerated blood donation in order to save lives across the country.
The operations of the National Blood Service Agency (NBSA) commenced in 2005 as National Blood Transfusion Service (NBTS), by means of a multilateral partnership between the Federal Government of Nigeria (FGN) and the United States Government (USG) through the United States (U.S) President’s Emergency Fund for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR). The legal framework that established the NBTS is the National Health Act (NHAct) of 2014, which in Section Vi, Sub-section 47-53, provides for the creation of NBTS as follows “The Minister shall establish a National Blood Transfusion Service for the Federation.” The National Blood Service Agency (NBSA) bill was signed into law on the 29th of July 2021.

She stressed that inclusive training would not only equip health workers with the right mindset and skills but also improve overall service delivery to vulnerable groups.
Bature said, “There is a need to educate and sensitize people without disabilities to better understand the challenges and rights of persons with disabilities. This will go a long way in fostering a more inclusive and compassionate society.”
“This is a welcome development, and we are committed to giving it all the necessary support,” he said.
let us build a culture where giving blood is not just a duty, but a shared national value.
May this Easter bring you and your loved ones peace, joy, and renewed strength. Thank you for giving hope, for giving life, and for giving selflessly.
