 STATEHOUSE PRESS STATEMENT PRESIDENT TINUBU'S MESSAGE OF CONDOLENCE TO CHIMAMANDA ADICHIE AND HER FAMILY   With a deep sense of grief, I condole with Ms Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, her husband, Dr Ivara Esege, and the entire family on the passing of their son, Nkanu Nnamdi.   As a parent myself who has suffered the loss of a loved one, no grief is as devastating as losing a child.   I empathise with the family at this difficult time, and I mourn this sad loss with them.   Ms Adichie is a literary icon who has brought joy and light to many homes globally, and I pray she and her family find strength in the Almighty in this trying hour.   My prayers are with the family.   Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces Federal Republic of Nigeria January 8, 2026

 Ogun Pledges Continued HIV/AIDS Treatment Despite US Funding Suspension


The Ogun State Government has assured residents that HIV/AIDS treatment and care will continue uninterrupted, despite the United States’ 90-day suspension of funding for public health programs, including those under USAID.


Commissioner for Health, Dr. Tomi Coker, in a statement on Tuesday, emphasized that the state had put proactive measures in place to ensure continuous healthcare services, with both the federal and state governments committed to preventing service disruptions.


She noted that HIV test kits remain available in hospitals and primary healthcare centers, and treatment facilities will stay open across all 43 ART sites to support drug pick-ups and initiate antiretroviral therapy for new patients.


Additionally, Early Infant Diagnosis (EID) tests will continue at two m-PIMA laboratories in Oba Ademola Maternity Hospital and General Hospital, Owode, while viral load testing logistics remain in place.


To maintain service delivery, mentor mothers will work alongside government healthcare workers, and the Ministry of Health will oversee coordination efforts at ART sites.


Dr. Coker urged healthcare providers to integrate HIV treatment into the state’s general health services and reassured residents of continued government support.


As of November 2024, 30,350 people were receiving HIV/AIDS treatment in Ogun State, with children accounting for 2% of the cases.
