Speaking during the commencement of a ten-day training exercise in Kano, the World Health Organisation (WHO) country representative, Dr. Kazadi Mulombo, who was represented by the state coordinator, Dr. Mayana Sanusi, said the training is a critical step towards improving the quality of care at the PHC level.

He explained that it is a priority in line with the Sector Wide Approach (SWAp) initiated by the coordinating minister for Health and Social Welfare as an aid delivery mechanism where all donors and implementers align with a common framework and national policy in exchange for the inclusion of their policy/programme objectives/priorities in the national health programme.

While expressing optimism of a significant improvement in quality of services, Dr. Sanusi reiterated WHO’s commitment to supporting government at all levels towards achieving SWAp objectives and advancing universal health coverage agenda.

He however stressed that the PHC serves as a cornerstone for achieving universal health coverage, hence the need for the training.
