MAMAYE- EVIDENCE FOR ACTION INITIATIVE ON A RESCUE MISSION TO SAVE THE NIGERIA HEALTH SECTOR


MAMAYE- EVIDENCE FOR ACTION, an organization focused in using evidence based advocacy to drive positive outcomes for mothers and newborns in collaboration with other health initiatives based on evidences launched a rescue mission to save the Nigeria health sector.




One of the evidences MAMAYE- EVIDENCE FOR ACTION has is the failed proper implementation of budgetary allocation to the health sector.



Nigeria still faces worse form of healthcare challenges especially for mothers and their newborns such as pregnancy-related injuries, infections, diseases, disabilities and preventable adverse newborn health outcomes due to inadequate government’s commitment in delivering quality healthcare services that work for all while eliminating those challenges.



Resources are not always made available for key critical health interventions. Tanzanian is the only country in the world that achieved the “Abuja Declaration” of 15% allocation to the health sector, Nigeria is still lagging behind even the little being approved for the health sector are hardly released on time. The fact that budget is approved doesn’t guarantee that’s what will be released. Nigeria health sector is underfunded which thereby reducing chances of women and children benefiting from what were allocated.


Hence, MAMAYE- EVIDENCE FOR ACTION in collaboration with other health initiatives and stakeholders today, 17th May, 2018 launched #FundNaijaHealth Campaign in Lagos, Nigeria, a Health Budget Performance Campaign for prompt release of funds allocated to the sector and to address the lack of transparency in budgetary processes. Nigerian Governments needs to fulfill the “Abuja Declaration” of 15% allocation to the health sector.



Present at the event were medical experts, stakeholders and Lagos State Government who presented challenges and resolutions. The only way to make sure the budget allocations are well utilized is by proper advocacy.  Continuous advocacy should be embraced.





Our government has huge interest in economic affairs compare to health sector, there’s need for diversification as health is not just about health, it’s about life. 


A clarion call on all stakeholders at every sector to collaborate with MAMAYE- EVIDENCE FOR ACTION to promote the advocacy and diversification towards saving lives and making our government release budgetary allocation to the health sector as deemed fit.
 
Continued advocacy towards diversification is key! 

 "Health is not just about health, it’s about life".

Understanding Deaf and Deafness: See reason why the Deaf don't listen to your motivation

Image
 The Deaf with unguarded sense of freedom doesn't portrait Deafness, it's a build up attitude caused by lackadaisical manner of mentoring towards them. I have had series of complaints from parents of the Deaf stating that, their Deaf Children/Wards are extremely stubborn. After thorough evaluation, this issue emanates from lackadaisical manner of mentoring towards them. 70% of the prelingually Deaf suffers from lackadaisical manner of upbringing. They didn't enjoy the day to day recommended influence from parenting. We need to stop seeing the Deaf as liabilities.  These parents thinks providing basic amenities for their Deaf Children/Wards with a simple gesture by drawing the ears to say 'Be a Good Child' is enough. Though it happens to children without deafness too but it's incomparable to Deaf children who can't hear anything on the streets, there are training children without deafness could get on the streets by mere hearing. These Deaf Children grew up w...

Understanding Deaf and Deafness: See why the Deaf have to stare at you

Image
 I was staring at a Pastor, staring at a chorister while they were ministering and they were like, why's he staring at me. I was too focused on a very beautiful lady while conversing and she thought this guy want to brew up something. I gave a guy's lips full concentration while he was delivering a speech, he was like, is this guy jealous of me. I always have issues with most female discussants, they always think otherwise whenever I opened my eyeballs wide and direct on their lips. Pastor and chorister, the only way I can be lifted by your ministration is to stare at you till you leave the pulpit. Beautiful lady, the conversation can only be effective by me giving you total focus, eyeball to eyeball. Prolific speaker, why should I be jealous of you when I willingly came to your luncheon, for you to inspire me, I have to give your lips total concentration. Why should I keep my eyes opened and targeted when others are blinking, looking elsewhere, doing other things while they co...

FULL INCLUSION WITH SIGN LANGUAGE

Image
2017 INTERNATIONAL WEEK OF THE DEAF THEME: FULL INCLUSION WITH SIGN LANGUAGE International Week of the Deaf International Week of the Deaf is an initiative of World Federation of the Deaf; it’s the only week in a year that sees highly concerted global advocacy to raise awareness about the Deaf community on different levels. International Week of the Deaf is to strive to promote the human rights of the Deaf and highlight topics that merit attention. It aims to call for unity from the rest of the world through consistent, coordinated and widespread mobilization to ensure that the campaigns are visible through sufficient media coverage. Full Inclusion Inclusion is when everyone is involved on ‘matters’ in any circumstances. In this society of ours, the Deaf are being sidelined just because of an imposed communication barrier.  I used the word imposed because; precedence towards breaking the communication barrier only suffers neglect and not ignorance. ...
