DAY 2: Strengthening Communities: Discussions, Questions, and Answers (DQAs

 DAY 2: Strengthening Communities: Discussions, Questions, and Answers (DQAs)



A meticulously structured session focusing on discussions, questions, and answers regarding Microplanning as a vital tool for ensuring widespread distribution of Human Papilloma Virus Vaccines (HPVV) across communities took place.



During the DQAs, it was emphasized that Microplanning serves to identify priority communities, overcome obstacles, and develop work plans with effective solutions for HPV vaccine introduction in Kogi state.





State Ministry of Health and Primary Health Care Development Agencies Kogi, along with other pertinent technical experts from the WHO, UNICEF, JSI and Sight Savers provided invaluable technical support and information to address queries and offer solutions tailored to the specific areas of coverage for the State Team. These efforts are expected to significantly reduce the tragic occurrence of losing one woman every two minutes to cervical cancer. 


The advancements in cervical cancer prevention and treatment highlighted during the session underscore the importance of HPV vaccination and screening in mitigating this preventable disease.


Activities for Day 2 closed at 1:54pm

  ABENEMI’S CARETAKER COMMITTEE OF KOGI SDP: A FARCE? The situation regarding the caretaker committee established by the SDP in Kogi state is beginning to shift, as the presiding judge has decided to return the case to the Chief Judge (CJ) for reassignment to a substantive judge once the judicial vacation ends. This decision is significant because, upon reassignment, the new judge will set a fresh date for the hearing, which, according to reports, may be sometime in October or November. Until then, all parties must maintain the status quo, meaning, Hon. Moses Peter will continue as the chairman, and the caretaker committee's actions will be rendered ineffective, making all their decisions null and void.
