The Chairman, Senate Committee on Health Services, made this call during the budget defence of Health Ministry and its agencies in Abuja.

Dr.Tejuosho stated that the incessant strike in the health sector has adversely affected the progress made so far in the sector.

He further observed that the 1% consolidation funding enshrined in the National Health act 2014 has not been realised, because the act has not been implemented. He added that implementation of the act could aid the growth in the health sector.

In his remark, the Chairman, Primary Healthcare and Communicable Disease Committee, Sen. Mao Ohabunwa, reiterated that the National Health Act was a law passed by the National Assembly, which the Health Ministry and other stakeholders must work together to actualize the provisions.

Prof. Adewole noted that the Buhariadministration has resolved to change the health indices of the county through provision of basic healthcare facilities to the poor, vulnerable and people living in rural areas, who need care the most.

“We are focusing on the people in the rural areas and the vulnerable population in our society such as women and children under 5 years of age and elderly,” he said.

The Minister urged stakeholders and Development Partners to align their support towards the vision of the government in ensuring access and affordability of care to the deprived.

Adewole said,“I wish to implore all stakeholders that the present administration was committed to revamping the Nigerian Health system by making the Primary Healthcare (PHC) a fulcrum. I will like to advice all development partners to support this initiative and reprioritize their support to our current vision. We do not want duplication of efforts and wastage of resources”.
