Despite the recent announcement by the President of The United States of America, Donald Trump, to withdraw from the supply of HIV drugs, the Director General of the National Agency for AIDS, Dr Temitope Ilori, has assured Nigerians of adequate availability of HIV drugs in all hospitals in Nigeria.
Ilori made the declaration on Wednesday at the Inauguration of the Prevention of Mother-to-Child Transmission (PMCT) and Pediatric HIV/AIDS Accelerated Committee in Jalingo, Taraba state capital.
She said there was a serious commitment by the Federal Government through the Ministry of Budget and National Planning to enhance budgetary provision for HIV/AIDS Control to ensure adequate availability of drugs and testing kits.

She gave assurance that the government would not fail in its responsibility to reduce its prevalence to the barest minimum as well as to sustain the fight to ensure that Nigeria was AIDS-free.

The DG urged the committee to ensure that Taraba was HIV-free shortly, adding that mother-to-child transmission was another common source of spreading the pandemic.

She also said the agency was working hard in collaboration with different partners to ensure the campaign and response to the pandemic reached every corner of Nigeria.

She further sought for the collective efforts by all stakeholders in the industry to ensure the eradication of HIV AIDS in Nigeria.

“The inclusion of interfaith groups in the just inaugurated committee was to ensure sensitisation of women towards access to testing during antenatal and postnatal periods.
Ilori commended Taraba State for its sustained response toward correcting the narratives as the highest state with HIV AIDS prevalence rate in the North East.
