[Federal Ministry of Health, NIGERIA @Fmohnigeria]

Coordinating Minister @MuhammadPate, is attending the Annual Health Financing Forum #AHFF hosted by @TheGFF @WBG_health and @USAIDGH where he has stressed the need for transparency around #HealthFinancing sources as governments strive to elevate health as a priority investment.

Speaking as a panelist, He explained the Nigerian government’s approach to investing in the health of its citizens is influenced by the uniqueness of the country’s population. Hence the application of the comprehensive strategy to strengthen #PHC and the workforce, as well expand affordable essential services.

Other conversations at the ongoing forum include solutions for moving the One Plan, One Budget, One Report agenda forward.

90% predict the next pandemic will stem from a natural zoonotic event.
