“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.

He stated that the effort was a collaboration between the NNPC and its partners in the Upstream and Downstream Sector of the nation's oil and gas value chain.
The NNPC GMD stressed that as a National Oil Company, the corporation on its own, would equip the intensive care unit of the University of Abuja Teaching hospital with 16 beds; provide ventilators and a dedicated laboratory, declaring that the medical infrastructure would be made available to the hospital immediately.
Mallam Kyari said Nigeria needed the Oil and Gas Industry now and always, saying the Industry was prepared to make further contributions to the fight against COVID-19 pandemic.
