AGP Executive Report

Last update: 28 minutes ago

Human Capital & Primary Care: President Tinubu launched a $1.25bn World Bank-backed human capital programme aimed at cutting poverty and strengthening healthcare and education, with a focus on smallholder farmers, small businesses and displaced communities. Clean Cooking & Public Health: Borno Governor Zulum distributed 23,700 clean cooking gas cylinders and stoves to primary school teachers and environmental vanguards across all 27 LGAs, using refill vouchers to reduce deforestation-linked health risks. Health System Strengthening: Anambra inaugurated a Technical Working Group on eye, ear and sensory health to tackle preventable blindness and improve sensory care planning. Cancer/Diagnostics & Access: The Senate passed the bill establishing a Federal University of Medical Laboratory Science and Technology in Jos to boost diagnostics and reduce medical tourism. TB Vaccine Update: India’s Serum Institute said it will manufacture an experimental TB vaccine with Gates MRI, a potential first new TB shot in over 100 years if approved. Food Inflation & Wellness: CPPE warned that food prices remain the biggest threat to Nigeria’s inflation outlook despite easing headline figures—an issue that directly hits household nutrition. Medical Regulation & Safety: Nigeria’s Physiotherapy Society said “Mary Habila” is not on its register of licensed physiotherapists, urging due diligence on professional identity. Public Health Alerts: Nigeria issued a flood alert for 14 states, warning that schools and healthcare centres could be affected if preventive steps aren’t taken. Controversy & Accountability: Calls for an independent, transparent police investigation into Mary Habila’s death continued, with rights groups pushing for credible autopsy and due process.
