NMA Backs FG On Deregulation Of Oil Sector by simongonner: 9:34am On May 19, 2016
The Nigerian Medical Association, NMA,
yesterday lend its weight to the Federal
government deregulation of the oil sector.
In a press statement signed by its President,
Prof Mike Ozovehe Ogirim, the medical
doctors however insisted that the deregulation
must be on grounds that part of the proposed
palliatives would include the immediate
release of at least 5 percent of the
consolidated revenue fund as the Basic
Healthcare Provision Fund (BHPF) which the
National Health Act has given to Nigerians
and has guaranteed it’s availability.
Ozovehe Ogirim, posited that the fund would
revamp Primary Health Care (PHC) and
reinvigorate the National Health Insurance
Scheme (NHIS) to cover all Nigerians.
According to him, “We also press for the
immediate rehabilitation and establishment of
functional PHC in all the wards nationwide as
a way of cushioning the harsh effects of out-
of-pocket expenditure and various inequities in
Healthcare delivery.”
He further urged the federal government to
mobilise contractors to sites of ongoing road
rehabilitation as this will reduce delays in
reaching health care facilities and reduce road
traffic accidents in the country.
“We call for the immediate establishment of
National emergency ambulance service for
quick rescue and resuscitation of emergencies
from our roads, provision of low tariff buses
and rehabilitation of our railway system.” http://www.vanguardngr.com/2016/05/nma-backs-fg-deregulation-oil-sector/
