United Nations Children Fund (UNICEF) has urged the federal government to strengthen policy reforms prioritising child-sensitive budgets.
UNICEF country representative in Nigeria, Cristian Munduate, stated this at the 29th Nigerian Economic Summit (NES 29) in Abuja.
She said “When we are just talking about policies, it is too general, there should be a policy saying we guarantee health for all children, but if we are not addressing those two million children who are there without vaccines and we cannot say this year we reach one million and the second year we reach the two million, we cannot say we have solved the problem.”
