“The intervention initiative is in alignment with the ongoing Federal Government's efforts and in collaboration with the NCDC to curb the pandemic. It is aimed at supporting our national healthcare delivery facilities and covers three key thematic areas: Provision of medical consumables; Deployment of logistics and in-patient support system; and Delivery of medical infrastructure.
The three thematic support initiatives amount to USD30million (N11bilion naira) and will be delivered in phases, starting today,” Mallam Kyari informed.
