 The board organ of the Nigerian Interfaith Action Association, NIFAR, has called on various health stakeholders on the urgent need for the Nigerian government at all levels to take the front position in health interventions in Nigeria, while condemning or commanding the work of NIFAR in bringing the faith institutions into playing an active role in campaigns against diseases in the country. The Executive Director, Bishop Dr. John Sunday Onoha, while briefing the press before a close door meeting, says there is need to step of action in a strengthening Nigeria's health system, particularly the primary health care centers across the country. The board called on the state governments, particularly the PMI, Focused States, to scale up budgetary allocation and fund releases for malaria activities. It is out of the passion that the faith community has in Nigeria about the scourge of malaria. And the number of people dying, over 300,000 people dying as a result of malaria. And faith community decided that they must take action, they must respond to it. And we went into relationships with the World Bank, Global Fund, and the Presidential Malayali Initiative of the United States, and you said, and since this year, we've gone into several states of the federation, and our goal is to increase what we are doing in partnership with donor agencies, also encouraging state government and governors to have budgetary allocation for health needs, especially malaria. Thank you.
