Historic Day for PHC Adoption in Nigeria! 

Today, 17th November, marks a major milestone in our collective drive to strengthen Primary Health Care across the country.

📌 The President of the Association of Public Health Physicians of Nigeria (APHPN), Dr. Terfa Kene, led a delegation to the Honourable Minister of Health in Abuja as part of a documentary project celebrating the remarkable life and legacy of Prof. Clara Ejembi of ABU, ahead of her 70th birthday.

🎯 After paying glowing tribute to Prof. Ejembi’s exceptional contributions to humanity, the Coordinating Minister of Health & Social Welfare, Prof. Ali Pate, graciously adopted the ECWA Comprehensive Health Centre, Kagoro (Kaura LGA).

💥 This PHC will undergo full refurbishment—complete with solar installation and critical infrastructure upgrades—in honour of Prof. Clara Ejembi’s impactful career and upcoming milestone celebration.

📌 APHPN extends heartfelt appreciation to the Minister for his unwavering support and commitment to revitalizing PHCs nationwide through the PHC Adoption Initiative.
