AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

Food Safety & Nutrition: A Federal Ministry of Health food scientist, Dr Kafayat Adebayo, urged Nigerians to cut back on over-processed and ultra-processed foods and drinks, saying they’re stripped of nutrients and linked to chronic diseases, and advised more fruits, vegetables, beans, regular exercise and routine check-ups. Public Health Systems: The National Population Commission says Nigeria has fully digitalised Civil Registration and Vital Statistics through VitalReg, launched July 1, 2026, to speed up birth/death registration and link with health institutions and identity systems. Medicine Regulation: Zamfara State moves to end illegal medicine sales and hawking, warning that fake or mishandled drugs can cause wrong dosages, antibiotic misuse and treatment failure. Maternal/Child Health Data: Nigeria’s CRVS push is framed as a boost for underserved communities where distance and access have slowed registration. Workplace Safety: Kano recorded two building collapses in Kumbotso and Fagge that killed five workers and a 14-year-old student, while rescuers evacuated hundreds of residents from a separate disaster context. Health & Justice: A rights group, SOJA, demanded a two-track probe into a UNIZIK lecturer’s alleged sexual misconduct and the mob assault that followed, stressing due process. Community Health & Security: Benue reported an armed herdsmen attack in Ukum LGA with deaths and injuries, while authorities urged continued protection of residents.
