Plateau State Deputy Governor, Mrs Josephine Piyo has assured that hands are on deck to ensure that all eligible children in the state are immunised against deadly and debilitating diseases. 

This was made known in a release made available by her press secretary Martha Nyam to news men in Jos.

Piyo, who doubles as the Chairman of the Task Force, stated this when she received a team of the state Task Force on Immunisation and Primary Health Care Activities in Jos. 

She stated that the state government would leave no stone unturned until it achieves total coverage of immunisation to stop the circulation of diseases amongst children in the state. 

Piyo emphasized that the goal of eradicating childhood diseases must be achieved in the interest of all children to achieve the over arching objective. 

The Deputy Governor stated that all local community development areas (LCDAs) through the traditional office holders must be brought on board to enlighten and mobilise their communities for unrestricted access to immunization and other primary health care services. 

Earlier, the Executive Secretary, Plateau State, Primary Health Care Board (PSPHCB) Dr Raymond Jurit, stated that the meeting with the Deputy Governor was to kickstart the annual quarterly meeting to assess successes, progress, and challenges faced by the board in terms of combating diseases and progress on timely immunisations.

Represented by the Director,  Disease Control and Immunisation, PSPHCB, Dr Yakubu Izang stated that the quarterly meetings were important to also plan the necessary immunizations to be carried out and connect with relevant stakeholders such as traditional rulers and other relevant agencies to ensure a seamless process.
