Last Saturday, February 20th, some ONE members
took to the streets of Lagos, Nigeria to raise awareness on the need for reform
in the health sector. The campaign drew a lot of interest from members of the
public, some of whom joined the ONE members to urge the government to allocate
more resources to the health sector in order to tackle the many issues plaguing
the sector.They want a #PeoplesBudget2016.
Millions of women particularly in the rural areas still die
during childbirth in Nigeria today. Another sad fact is that Nigerian children
under the age of 5 are among the most malnourished children in the world today
even though Nigeria’s economy is one of the largest in Africa.
