A great milestone for HIV prevention in Nigeria!
Kudos to @muhammadpate and team at @Fmohnigeria !
@TheWaaph
Nigeria expands HIV prevention options.
The Federal Ministry of Health and Social Welfare announces the arrival of Long-Acting Injectable Lenacapavir (LEN) PrEP, a new option in HIV prevention.
Through the National AIDS, Viral Hepatitis and STIs Control Programme (NASCP), the Ministry continues to expand prevention choices and strengthen Nigeria’s response to HIV.
The long-acting injectable provides sustained protection for people at risk of HIV and helps improve adherence to prevention.
Another important step in Nigeria’s journey toward ending HIV as a public health threat.

Thank you @unfpachief for this post. Most often little is said of the digital poverty that afflicts a large population of women and young girls of reproductive age in #LMICs.
This has impact on their digital access to reproductive health information and services.

Technology is not neutral – it is a mirror of society and existing inequalities.
Thank you to #China and other partners for a productive discussion on how to responsibly harness the power of technology for the rights and protection of women and girls.

Way to go HE @JDMahama & people of Ghana! That it is the true spirit of 'walking the talk' of Pan-Africanism. I does not make sense as secretariat of @AfCFTA, a key african multilateral institution for regional integration to maintain a visa regime that works against it!

Proud to serve.
The Chancery of the Accra Reset—an African health and economic sovereignty initiative championed by President John Dramani Mahama—has established a High-Level Panel to reform global health architecture and governance.
Honored to be appointed Special Advisor and Envoy to the Co-Chairs.
At a moment when global health governance must evolve, I remain committed to advancing a more equitable, accountable, and Africa-led system.

A landmark for #OneHealth.
Congratulations @khosla_rajat and @PMNCH team for being part of this process.

Over 1 billion children live in areas significantly affected by climate crisis and their health is increasingly impacted by the compounding factors with lasting effects on their development and life-long prosperity.
The #OneHealthSummit 2026, as part of France’s #G7 presidency, represented a timely gathering of partners across sectors to address priority issues and solutions for the future of One Health, including the road to health sovereignty, digital innovation and tools, sustainable financing, civil society engagement, and youth empowerment.
PMNCH was delighted to see partners unite and governments commit to the future of One Health this #WorldHealthDay, demonstrating how political commitment, international collaboration and science-based decision-making were the basis for accelerated action to save the lives of the world’s most vulnerable women, children and adolescents.
