The Association of Local Governments of Nigeria (ALGON) is gearing up to host a high-level Technical Workshop on its Primary Healthcare Revitalization and Operationalization Programme (PHC-ROP) in Abuja on Wednesday, August 28th, 2024.

The event, scheduled to take place at the Presidential Banquet Hall, is being held in collaboration with the Office of the Special Adviser on Health to the President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the Federal Ministry of Health, and other stakeholders.

The workshop aims to develop institutional capacity and responsiveness required to ensure and enhance Primary Healthcare service delivery across the 774 Local Government Areas (LGAs) in Nigeria.

The event’s objective is to enable Local Governments to develop institutional mechanisms and multi-stakeholder engagements aimed at rejuvenating and entrenching Primary Healthcare service delivery, which has eroded the rural health ecosystem in Nigeria.

ALGON National President, Hon. Aminu Mu’azu Maifata, is leveraging the collaborative commitment of critical stakeholders to deliver the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal (SDGs) in line with his policy direction and strategic plan.

The ALGON Stakeholders Technical Workshop is also in line with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s efforts to implement the provisions of the Constitution, which recognizes Local Governments as the third tier of government, and his Presidential mandate to the 10-Man Inter-Ministerial Committee to enforce the Supreme Court judgment on Local Governments’ autonomy.

The workshop is expected to bring together stakeholders from various sectors, including healthcare professionals, policymakers, and local government officials, to discuss and develop strategies for revitalizing and operationalizing Primary Healthcare services in Nigeria.

With the support of the Federal Government and other stakeholders, ALGON is poised to make significant strides in enhancing Primary Healthcare service delivery across the country.
