Nigerian Manufacturers Capable Of Producing Vaccines, Tinubu Tells GAVI by ManirBK: 2:54pm On Apr 05
President Bola Tinubu has called on GAVI, the Vaccine
Alliance, to collaborate with potential Nigerian vaccine
manufacturers to ensure equitable access to life-saving
vaccines for children and adults.
Speaking at a meeting with a delegation of GAVI led by its
Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Sania Nishtar, at the State
House, on Thursday, President Tinubu said partnership on
local vaccine production has become necessary owing to
the challenges faced by developing countries, especially
during the COVID-19 pandemic and other infectious
disease outbreaks.
‘’We have capable and talented people who can make the
necessary contributions to the production of vaccines in
Nigeria and the rest of Africa,’’ the President told the
visiting CEO, who assumed office on March 18, 2024, and
has embarked on visits to some African countries.
The president assured the GAVI CEO of Nigeria’s
commitment to fulfilling its outstanding counterpart
contributions for routine vaccines for the year 2023.

He directed the Coordinating Minister of Health and Social
Welfare, Professor Muhammad Ali Pate, to work with the
Coordinating Minister of the Economy and Minister of
Finance to ensure the release of necessary funds for
vaccine procurement.
In her remarks, the GAVI CEO congratulated the Nigerian
government on its innovative health-sector initiatives,
including increasing budgetary allocations to health to 4.6
per cent and commitment to providing HPV vaccines for
adolescent girls, among others.
She expressed readiness to collaborate with the Federal
Ministry of Health and Social Welfare to leverage policy
instruments and technical expertise to advance health
outcomes.
