The World Bank Group’s Board of Executive Directors approved on April 23, 2015 a US$500 million International Development Association (IDA) credit to significantly improve maternal, child, and nutrition health services for women and children. By improving access to higher quality health services, the new development financing will help Nigeria to achieve its “Saving One Million Lives (SOML) Initiative,” which was launched by the Federal Ministry of Health in October 2012 to save the lives of the more than 900,000 women and children who die every year in Nigeria from largely preventable causes. “Saving One Million Lives is a bold response from the Nigerian government to improve the health of the country’s mothers and children so they can survive illness and thrive. This, in turn, will also contribute to the social and economic development of Africa’s largest economy,” said Benjamin Loevinsohn, a Lead Health Specialist and Task Team Leader for the new project. Nigeria accounts for 14% of all annual maternal deaths worldwide, second only to India at 17%. Similarly, Nigeria accounts for 13% of all global deaths of children under the age of five years, again second only to India at 21%. To address the challenge of its 900,000 maternal and child deaths, the SOML Initiative focuses on (i) increasing the use of high-impact reproductive and child health and nutrition interventions; (ii) improving the quality of these services; (iii) strengthening monitoring and evaluation systems and measurement data; (iv) encouraging private sector innovation; and (v) increasing transparency in management and budgeting for Primary Health Care (PHC) in the country. The World Bank’s support for SOML will utilize the Program-for-Results or PforR instrument to encourage a greater focus on results, increase accountability, improve measurements, strengthen management, and foster innovation. PforR funds will be only be disbursed to the Federal and State governments for independently verified improvements in key services such as vaccination coverage among young children, rates of contraceptive use, Vitamin A supplementation, skilled birth attendance, HIV counselling and testing among women attending antenatal care, and preventing new malaria infections among children by using insecticide- treated bed nets when they sleep. Federal and State governments will also receive incentive payments for better tackling governance and management issues in the health sector and for improving the quality of basic health services. “This welcome new Program for Results operation for health will also strengthen Nigeria’s own health system and development footing while also providing an important mechanism for bringing both Government and development partners together around a commitment to achieve specific, tangible results,” said Marie Francoise Marie-Nelly, Nigeria Country Director. The program will be implemented under the Federal Ministry of Health, in close cooperation with the Federal Ministry of Finance which will provide financial oversight role. The new health operation is expected to start implementation on August 1, 2015 and will end four years later in December 2019. Source: World Bank |

I saw this beautiful comment on a forum so I decided to share with you! I have been quiet for a while about the ongoing election preparations in Nigeria. However, it has come to the point that I have decided to air my view. Most people have been condemning President Jonathan for his poor administrative strategies. There's no doubt that his administration is fraught with lots of corruption and insensitivities to salient matters. However, it is pertinent to note that he is ruling the country with gun pointed to his head, and knives pointed to his throat, solely because he is a Christian and from the South-south. He never got the support of the people ruling alongside with him. Don't forget that the likes of General Buhari who is currently seeking to unseat him vowed to make the country ungovernable for him. He was an ordinary civilian and needed the support of the house to carry out important decisions and policies. Buhari, the northern muslims and their cliques formed opposition group to frustrate all the good efforts of President Jonathan. Given the divisive nature of Nigeria, no ruler would have succeeded better than Jonathan, if faced with the kind of opposition that Jonathan faced. Jonathan may not be the best person to rule Nigeria, however, juxtaposed against Buhari, I will choose Jonathan a million times. Here are my reasons: 1. Buhari is a dictator who does not believe in democracy. 2. Buhari is a fanatic who puts religion first before the people. 3. Buhari does not support a good course; he openly vowed to make Nigeria ungovernable for President Jonathan only because he was a Christian. 4. Buhari is a liar who said he was poor while he is living in affluence. He is richer than 30% of average Nigerians combined. 5. He is dishonest because he never reviewed how he acquired his wealth. 6. He did not finish secondary school but got enrolled into Nigerian Defence Academy. 7. If elected he will commit genocide against Christians in the north. 8. He is frail; age and health are not on his side. 9. His previous rule did not bring Nigeria any good other than hash treatment on teachers. |

Good for him |
Class of 19 simply means it's a 4 years program, that she'll graduate in 19' |
I don't really think it's all true though.. for instance, what of people living in Europe and other part of the continent where the country is very cold..sometimes the temperature goes low to -19 to -25 during the winter. What will you say about that ![]() I have survived -20°c this winter, it's just fun |
