The official Twitter account of Huwe® (Basic Healthcare Provision Fund). I help Nigerians make great sense of the program.

It's just Tuesday but my week has major highlights.

Submitted my paper that assessed @okeanaye's policy work on Basic Healthcare Provision Fund, and the Ekiti State Social Health Insurance. It was nice doing a brief work on someone I admire so much in the industry.

Gathered in Abuja today, are Commissioners of Health, ES's of State Primary Health Agencies, and CEOs of State Insurance Agencies to participate in the first ever Top Team Effectiveness Retreat of sub-national Health leaders.

@okeanaye @IsaacFAdewole @Princeton 👌🏾

4 years ago, working with @IsaacFAdewole, we commenced @huwegov.

@Princeton University, in the case study below, chronicled the journey to mobilising ~$180m for @huwegov & steps taken to build a support coalition that spanned the government & CSO.

However, seeing how @zukynokeke and @ARC4SC have facilitated the transformation of Yobe State Drugs and Medical Consumables Management Agency, I am convinced that while there may be initial resistance, good work will always sell itself.

One word to describe the past week? INTENSE!

Despite the chaos, 3 things stood out to me & they are:

1. Continuous self-development keeps you in “site”.

2. People may forget what you say, but will remember how you made them feel.

3. Good work sells itself.

I could see that the strategy the state was implementing in managing its drug supply system was one I had designed while I led @huwegov 4 years ago.

At the time I developed the guideline, there was resistance to its implementation & I thought no state was willing to adopt it.

“Aiyé nyí, àá’ntọ̀ọ́, béenì, ìgbà kàn kò lo ilé ayé gbó”

Translation: As the world evolves, so do we. Nothing is permanent, time changes.

This was the proverb that came to my mind as I reflected on the past week.

Happy Birthday to my dear boss, His Excellency Governor @kfayemi

We are deeply grateful for your leadership and especially for your continued support to the growth of the health sector in Ekiti State.

THANK YOU for all you do.

1.Yesterday, we received our batch of the #COVID19 vaccines from @NphcdaNG courtesy of #COVAX.

Today, the Executive Governor of Ekiti State @kfayemi, the First Lady, the Honourable Speaker of the House, some frontline workers and I received our first shot of the vaccine.

[Kayode Fayemi @kfayemi]

This is great news!

I am immensely proud of the work being done by @Ulera_Ekiti, led by the Honourable Commissioner, Dr. @okeanaye and our frontline health workers. This commendable milestone is a result of our preparedness and huge investments in critical health infrastructure.

[O.F @okeanaye]

Earlier today, my mom received her 1st dose of the AstraZeneca #COVID19 vaccine. She has not experienced any side-effects.

I’m grateful for the hard work by scientists & health workers across the world, to protect vulnerable people from #COVID19

#YesToCovid19Vaccine

[O.F @okeanaye]

When you receive the latest data of persons vaccinated in the State 😁

We really look forward to getting more vaccines to enable us vaccinate many more people.

1. During one of our #COVID TWG meetings, it occurred to me that more staff of @Ulera_Ekiti were beginning to get comfortable with interrogating data & proffering solutions to challenges. I consider this progress resulting from the performance mgt. process that we’ve put in place

PRESS STATEMENT👇🏽

Highlights

👉🏾Ekiti State to commence administration of the second dose of COVID-19 vaccines, as soon as approval is gotten from @NphcdaNG

While juggling my schedule last week, I decided to intentionally pen down some of my musings.

Three things stood out 👇🏼

With so much to do within a short time, keeping staff motivated can go a long way in reaching our goals.

[O.F @okeanaye]

One of our major #COVID19 response priorities is to ensure the safety of health & other frontline workers

Thank you @LifeBankCares @temite for partnering with us at Ekiti State Ministry of Health, to carry out #COVID19 tests for health workers & civil servants

[Federal Ministry of Health, NIGERIA @Fmohnigeria]

Public health measures such as #handwashing #socialdistancing & use of #facemask are very effective in the fight against #COVID19.

Adhere to all non pharmaceutical preventive measures of #COVID19.

[O.F @okeanaye]

The right to peaceful protest is a constitutional right for all #Nigerians. However, it is important that we recognise the role of essential services such as health care delivery. Our goal is to avoid preventable deaths and not contribute to this (1/)
