The Federal Government has on Monday said, it has concluded  plans to share $1.5 million each to the 36 states of the federation and the Federal Capital
Territory for the financing of primary healthcare system. ‎

The Minister of Health, Professor Isaac Adewole, made this known at the presentation of the National Healthcare Plan to officials of the World Health Organisation (WHO) today in Abuja.
He said that the neglect of the primary healthcare system was a major problem in the sector, ‎lamenting that only 20% of Nigeria’s 30,000 primary healthcare facilities were working.
Prof. Adewole outlined governments’ plans to revitalise the health sector including cash disbursement to states to finance primary healthcare.
The Regional Director of WHO for Africa, Dr. Matshidiso Rebecca, assured the government of the organisation’s support.
Dr Rebecca advised the government to encourage healthcare practitioners to stay in communities where primary healthcare facilities are situated.‎ END!!!
