The President, National Association of Community Health Practitioners of Nigeria, NACHPN, Comrade Kabir Yahaya Ahmed has commended President Bola Tinubu for approving establishment of the National Health Fellows Programme to engage young Nigerian Fellows in all the 774 Local Government Areas in the country.
Speaking with newsmen in Abuja on the development, Comrade Ahmed also described the planned construction of over eight thousand Primary Healthcare Centres equally approved by President Tinubu as a good step in the right direction in the nation’s health sector.
President Bola Tinubu on Monday approved the establishment of the National Health Fellows Programme to engage young Nigerian Fellows in all 774 Local Government Areas in the country.
This was made known in a statement on Monday this week by the President’s Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Ajuri Ngelale.
“The fellows will be recruited, remunerated, and equipped with appropriate tools to track the performance of the Basic Health Care Provision Fund supported health facilities across the nation.
“The move is in line with his determination to comprehensively upgrade existing primary healthcare centres and construct over 8,800 new primary healthcare centres across all local government areas in the country for accessible and qualitative healthcare delivery with the provision of new social accountability mechanisms”.
Reacting to the development, the President of NACHPN, Comrade Kabir Yahaya Ahmed said the well-trained Fellows would also serve as fiduciary agents to “monitor and track Primary Healthcare Centre development and performance, which would also be assiduously measured against all financial inflows to the centres nationwide”.
According to him, this will equally go a long way in improving Nigeria’s health sector through massive investments and increased allocation of funds to the sector in the proposed 2024 budget towards realizing President Bola Tinubu’s renewed hope agenda for Nigerians in the area of healthcare delivery.
