The Minister of Health, Isaac Adewole has stated that the Federal Government has plans to offer free health care to 100 million Nigerians in 2 years.

The minister disclosed this while speaking on Thursday at a weekly broadcast on the African Independent Television.

The minister said for the government to achieve the target, primary healthcare services would be revamped and the government would take to the “the universally accepted concept of one primary healthcare centre per political ward”.



He disclosed that pregnant women would be one of the beneficiaries of the scheme.

“One of the things we want to do under the revitalised PHC programme is that each of these revitalised, reinvigorated PHC will have an industrial borehole so that we can offer water to the people, clean drinkable water,” he said.

”The primary healthcare facilities, according to the minister,will be managed by nurses, mid-wives and village workers so as to accommodate cultural differences in different parts of Nigeria. “If we do not (do this), people will not use the facilities.”

Free Health Service?

Free Health Services don't exist anywhere, even in the richest countries of the world.

This is another APC Propaganda of Falsehood to deceive the most gullible Nigerians.

GboyegaD:
They should also look into the NHIS and ensure they enact a law that compels every Nigerian to have an Insurance Plan. That way, it will reduce the mortality due to non-commitment of initial deposit by patients and perhaps, give way to we charging negligent doctors to appropriate court of law when they choose not to perform their responsibilities properly.

I totally agree with you my Bro. Most laudable programs on paper never see the light of day in reality. There are a lot of abandoned programs like the Midwives service schemes (MSS), SURE-P on health, free maternal and child health programs, HIV-AIDS National programs etc, good programs I must confess but most are non-existent today.
The NGOs running some of these programs are already pulling out because our so called leaders are markedly irresponsible and unserious about the basic needs of her people.
Nigeria is a huge joke!!!

Lol.

How come it's not the government's Budget?

Oh, I get it.

Election expenses have to be recovered first in the first year's budgey, then thereafter, the administration can begin to look into the health of those that voted them in.

I get it.
Brilliant!

Stop assuming .

When you have not appropriated funds under the 2016 budget and are feeding on the scraps of a supplementary budget, the only things you can have is plans. Wait till April ending and watch what happens.

If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then we have to ASSUME that it's a duck.
