In observance of World Asthma Day 2025, the Federal Government has reiterated its commitment to ensuring that inhaled treatments are both accessible and affordable for all Nigerians.
Prof. Muhammad Ali Pate, the Coordinating Minister of Health and Social Welfare, made the statement on Tuesday, asserting that access to life-saving inhalers is not a privilege but a fundamental right that should be available to every Nigerian.
Speaking in line with this year’s global theme, “Make Inhaled Treatments Accessible for All,” the Minister outlined the government’s comprehensive strategy to reduce the impact of asthma and improve the availability of treatment nationwide.
