Senator Oluremi Tinubu, the First Lady, has expressed her gratitude to healthcare workers for their unwavering dedication and commitment.
She acknowledged that despite Nigeria facing numerous challenges, from Ebola to Covid, the nation stands resilient, a testament to the healthcare workers’ devotion.
In her statement for ‘World Health Day’ on Sunday, April 7, she remarked: “On World Health Day, we are reminded by the theme ‘Health for All: Health Equity’ of the profound truth that healthcare is a fundamental human right, not a privilege.
Despite Nigeria’s healthcare sector making notable advances, the persistent health equity gap poses a significant challenge that requires our united efforts.
In a world where socio-economic differences affect access to quality healthcare, resulting in varied health outcomes, the dedication and service of our healthcare workers are commendable.
Nigeria has endured numerous adversities, from Ebola to Covid, and it is their commitment that has kept us going. To all healthcare workers, I extend my deepest appreciation.”
