Speaking during the second day of the 2025 Joint Annual Review of Nigeria’s health sector, in Abuja, the Minister of State for Health and Social Welfare, Dr Iziaq Salako, shared that the reforms are designed to improve access to care, boost coordination and offer more protection for vulnerable Nigerians.
According to him, reforms under the Nigerian Health Sector Renewal Investment Initiative will help to accelerate Universal Health Coverage, enhance national health security and position the country to deliver more efficient, affordable and equitable healthcare services.
Stating that the programme is anchored on four core pillars, governance, financing, service delivery and community participation, he declared that it will transform how healthcare is planned, funded, implemented and tracked across Nigeria’s vast health system.
