The blackfly (called Mutumutu in some local communities) breeds near fast-flowing rivers and streams.  Breaking this cycle starts with awareness. And treatment.

Save this and share it. The more people know how it spreads, the sooner we can stop it.

A few minutes of boiling can prevent days of sickness.

Safe drinking water is essential for healthy families and communities, yet harmful germs in untreated water are often invisible to the eye. Boiling water is a simple and effective way to make it safer for drinking and reduce the risk of waterborne diseases.

Where art meets health, stories become power, and silence gives way to change.

"Her Strength in Every Story: Creative Expressions for Women’s Health” at the Celebrating Womanhood Art Gala 2025 reminded us that creativity can amplify women’s voices and deepen conversations on maternal health in Nigeria.

#Throwback to an evening where women’s health spoke loudest.

Behind every healthcare visit is a real story, and those experiences reveal what’s working and where gaps remain in our primary healthcare system.

When communities are heard, better solutions become possible.

Share your story. Your voice can help drive change.

"They say death came.
No.
It was sent for.... "

In this poem, Dr Ebere Okereke reflects on lives lost not by chance, but through layers of neglect, weak systems, and the quiet normalisation of avoidable deaths in Nigeria's health care system.

Every parent wants the best for their child. But when illness strikes, the right care matters.

Unverified remedies can be harmful, while Primary Health Care centres provide safe, tested, and professional treatment.

Visit your nearest PHC for trusted care.

In overcrowded labour wards, minutes decide survival. Malawi’s use of PeriWatch Vigilance suggests artificial intelligence may reduce stillbirths and early newborn deaths.

The workshop focused on aligning efforts with national RCCE priorities in line with the Joint External Evaluation (JEE) scores, identifying gaps and priorities for improving.

The collaborative effort marks a major step toward strengthening national structures to effectively manage and combat health misinformation in Nigeria.

The rapid spread of misinformation and disinformation poses significant challenges to effective response efforts during public health crises.

On Monday, 27th and 28th October 2025, we participated in a workshop convened by the @NCDCgov alongside other partners, including @WHONigeria, @Fmohnigeria, @DubawaFacts, AIRA, @NgNewsAgency, and @FmardNg, amongst other organisations, for a National Infodemic Assessment and One-year work plan development in Abuja.

Without family planning, we limit choices, development, and progress. It is a strategic investment in human capital and national prosperity.

As #ICFP2025 brings global focus to this agenda, today we revisit our Curated Conversations with Dr @DrSamukeliso, ED @FP2030Global, and our Director of Media Programmes, @alagboso, on why family planning remains central to Africa’s growth.

In a world where misinformation spreads faster than verified facts, the Lagos Health Misinformation Management Fellows are stepping up to bridge the gap.

Over the past week, Fellows have been actively taking action across communities, addressing myths, promoting accurate health information, and strengthening public trust. From Eti-Osa to Lagos Mainland, Somolu, and Surulere, they have engaged market women, community leaders, and youth groups on the dangers of misinformation, personal hygiene, and the importance of verifying health information before sharing.

The message is clear: “Not Sure, Don’t Share!”

Many Nigerian parents still have questions about vaccines, especially the Measles–Rubella (MR) vaccine.

Here’s the fact: the MR vaccine, recommended by @WHO, protects against both Measles and Rubella — two serious but preventable diseases.
