Nigeria's Health Minister, Isaac Adewole, has announced plans to launch a new effective primary health care system in the country.

There'll be an overhaul of the previous system, he said. The move could lead to primary healthcare centres, PHCs, “having full control of how they utilize the money” they are allocated, he added.

“The administration of President Muhammadu Buhari would love to be remembered in making basic healthcare services qualitative, accessible and affordable to all Nigerians,” he said.

“Financial autonomy at the PHC facility level, making sure money gets to the primary healthcare facilities directly with facilities having full control of how they utilize the money, will help enhance the viability of PHC in the country.”

This approach, according to him, “informed the budget process in 2017 and underpins the approach for increasing healthcare services as espoused under the approved guidelines at the basic health care provision function.”

This is a welcome idea It will surely reduce the corruption at National Primary Healthcare Development Agency

Plans and counter plans all the time.

No execution!

Always planning without any visible or tangible action!
Members of this administration are fond of speaking in future continuous tense just to keep their zombies well fed and in check!
Don't worry folks by this time next year,same sermon will be preached again!

Good move. However, how would they fund this system when the country revenue is going down as reported by the FG!!!

In Nigeria?

No be today we dey hear am

The Federal government should have no business in primary health care. States are more importantly LGA's should be in charge of healthcare in their domains. We need to stop this "one shoe fits all" approach.

GoOd news.

Are you in the system? If no just relax. If you are in the system then you know he's more worse than dalung. Workers under his watch haven't been paid some since August and so on.
He comes up with propaganda and counter propaganda and has achieved nothing but mere showboating.

Pls tell that to the dogs. I'm an insider, when you withold funds meant for various projects with the hope of sharing it at the end of the year, that person is evil. In your own unbiased assessment how is nafdac doing today? Agencies under the health ministry are stinking with corruption and occultic practices like never before. Adewole has been terribly compromised
