Coordinating minister of health and social welfare, Prof. Muhammad Ali Pate, who spoke on Wednesday at the 3rd Bi-annual CDC Nigeria Performance Review Meeting and Stakeholder Engagement in Abuja, highlighted the instrumental role the US CDC  partnership with the federal government has played.

Represented by the director, public health, Federal Ministry of Health, Dr. Chukwuma Anyaike, the minister said “Our achievements are evident in the expanded delivery of HIV testing, treatment, and care services, culminating in a noteworthy achievement of above 90 percent in each of the UNAIDS 95.95.95 cascade targets at the end of 2022.

“A significant milestone in this reinforced partnership is the launch of the Nigeria HIV Sustainability and Impact Project (NSHIP), generously funded by the US CDC.”

Pate also restated the government’s commitment towards sustainable financing for health and HIV, stating that it remains at the forefront of the government’s Plan.
