Today, we had a great opportunity to rethink malaria elimination in Nigeria. Thanks @DrTedros @WHO @MoetiTshidi, @GlobalFund @PeterASands, @gavi , @drdavidwalton, @PMIgov, @JoyPhumaphi_, Hon Minister of State @DrTunjiAlausa, Dr Ntadom NC NMEP @Fmohnigeria, and numerous Nigerian, African, and global health leaders for joining us to interrogate the facts and begin to chart a new path towards malaria elimination as part of President Tinubu’s @officialABAT Renewed Hope Agenda. We also were glad to have the Nigerian Governors Forum @NGFSecretariat and sub-national leadership in the dialogue. We identified key shifts and strategic actions to combat malaria in Nigeria, including: 1.Establishing an independent Advisory group on Malaria Elimination in Nigeria (#AMEN); 2.Developing a pragmatic, costed plan for malaria elimination making explicit the required trade offs; 3.Intensified malaria case management, including NHIA reforms, domesticated Affordable Medicines for malaria effort, expanding primary health and frontline workforce; 4.Mobilizing domestic and global funding for malaria; 5. Relentless focus on operational excellence to deploy and optimize existing tools for high coverage, including LLINs, SMC, IPT, IVM and phased introduction of safe, efficacious vaccines; 6.Enhancing community and leadership involvement in malaria elimination; 7.Strengthening data integrity and accountability; 8.Intensifying preparedness and response to climate change’s impacts on malaria; 9.Exploring bold innovations in service delivery and financing mechanisms.
