@Fmohnigeria While we push government institutions to improve accountability and transparency, the nonprofit sector should also take the lead in strengthening accountability of donations and grants. The FMoH should prioritize partnerships with credible local and indigenous organizations!

MEDIA BRIEF FG MOVES TO TIGHTEN HEALTH SECTOR COORDINATION AS GOVERNMENT, PARTNERS REINFORCE REFORM COMPACT Abuja, Nigeria | 11 February 2026 — The Federal Government, through the Federal Ministry of Health and Social Welfare, has reaffirmed its commitment to strengthening collaboration with development partners as part of ongoing efforts to accelerate healthcare delivery and improve health outcomes across the country. Speaking at the 2026 Health Development Partners Retreat, the Coordinating Minister, Health and Social Welfare, @muhammadpate , emphasised the need for stronger coordination, transparency, and alignment of development partner investments with national health priorities. He noted that effective collaboration between government and partners remains critical to advancing Nigeria’s health sector reform agenda. Building on this commitment, deliberations at the retreat focused on practical steps to improve coordination across federal, state, and local government levels, strengthen monitoring and evaluation systems, and ensure that development partners deliver on commitments under the Health Sector Compact. Participants highlighted the importance of enhancing visibility of partner investment portfolios and improving communication mechanisms to support accountability and reduce fragmentation in programme implementation. Stakeholders also underscored the need to strengthen existing coordination platforms under the Sector-Wide Approach (SWAp). In particular, Technical Working Groups and other SWAp governance structures were identified as key mechanisms for improving cross-agency collaboration and ensuring full participation of development partners in driving sector-wide reforms. Development partners reiterated their commitment to improving coordination among themselves through existing platforms such as the Development Partners Group and the SWAp Technical Working Groups. This includes aligning investments, avoiding duplication of efforts, and ensuring that new partner-supported initiatives are implemented in line with the principles of the health sector compact. Participants further highlighted the importance of strengthening engagement between the Federal Ministry of Health and Social Welfare, heads of health agencies, state commissioners for health, and development partners through regular dialogue platforms to enhance cross-government technical coordination. The retreat also examined the implications of evolving fiscal and financing policies across federal, state, and local government levels for the implementation of key health initiatives. Stakeholders discussed the need for stronger alignment between federal and state governments to sustain ongoing reforms and support the effective operationalisation of priority programmes within the health sector.   Participants identified several opportunities to strengthen coordination and sustain reform momentum. These include improving monitoring systems through functional dashboards such as the Results Monitoring, Evaluation and Tracking (RMET) platform, advancing the establishment of a Technical Assistance Pooled Fund to support greater government ownership of technical priorities, aligning existing and new partner investments to strengthen the health system, and expanding health insurance coverage while leveraging private sector participation to support service delivery. The meeting concluded with a renewed commitment from the Federal Government and development partners to deepen collaboration, strengthen coordination mechanisms, and support Nigeria’s drive toward a more resilient, efficient, and sustainable health system. The Ministry called on development partners, federal and state health institutions, and other sector stakeholders to continue aligning investments, programmes, and technical support with national health priorities under the Sector-Wide Approach, in order to accelerate reform delivery and improve health outcomes for all Nigerians.
