The Minister of Health, Prof. Isaac Adewole, has revealed
that $3.2m (N1.08bn) worth of HIV drugs expired in storage.
While delivering a speech at the ‘Dissemination Meeting of
2016 National Health Facility Survey’ in Abuja on Tuesday,the minister said, “
“We are living witnesses to the challenges we face with the
HIV programme where drugs worth about $3.2m expired. So, it is not a question
of it (drugs) not being available. Sometimes the drugs are there but we don’t
give it to them (patients) and then they expire.”
This is sad and who is to blame?
