In a swift response to the recent cholera outbreak in the country, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has taken a proactive step by setting up an inter-ministerial committee to combat the spread of the disease.
This move demonstrates the President’s commitment to the health and well-being of Nigerians.
The inter-ministerial committee, led by the National Centre for Disease Control (NCDC), will oversee the emergency operation center established to coordinate the response to the cholera outbreak.
The committee comprises representatives from various ministries, including Health, Water Resources, and Environment, ensuring a multi-sectoral approach to tackling the crisis.
The committee’s primary objective is to contain the spread of cholera, provide adequate medical care to affected individuals, and implement measures to prevent future outbreaks.
They will work closely with state governments, healthcare professionals, and other stakeholders to achieve this goal.
President Tinubu’s prompt action in setting up this committee demonstrates his administration’s dedication to the health and well-being of Nigerians.
We commend this proactive step and urge the committee to work tirelessly to contain the cholera outbreak and ensure a healthy Nigeria for all.
