NAN reports that Saheed at a media briefing in Lagos said that 59 years after Nigeria’s independence, its health sector had deteriorated in healthcare delivery, resulting in medical tourism.
“The way emergency was declared in the security situation of the country, the same should be done for the health sector so that we can chart a way forward,” he said. “Each region in the country should have hospitals for specialisation – like pediatric, cardiology – and we will not need to move out of the country,” he said.
He said that the Federal Government had funds for PHCs and that such funds should be made more accessible.
