The Federal Government on Wednesday said the battle to eliminate HIV/Aids by 2030 is possible particularly with help of donors from both local and international partners.He said, “We have a gap to meet and we will seek funding from our partners, we will also seek funding from the private sector, we will also engage with state governments and a lot of the state governments are now buying into the state insurance scheme and we will exploit what ever opportunity we can have to increase funding
The NACA DG also called Nigerians to join in the fight against HIV/Aids by donating generously towards providing drugs and treatments for infected persons adding that the federal government was ready to use the resources judiciously while being accountable and transparent in its spending of the resources.
“I will ask people outside there, we know what will cost to deliver HIV care, if you are willing to put it into our pot we will use that money and will provide transparency”, he said.
