The Minister of State for Health, Sen. Olorunnimbe Mamora, says the Presidential Task Force, which later metamorphosed into the Presidential Steering Committee on COVID-19, contributed to the success of the Nigerian COVID-19 response.

The News Agency of Nigeria, reports that the 2014 National Health Act recognises the NCH as the highest policy-making body within the Nigerian health sector. The responsibilities of the NCH include the protection, promotion, improvement and maintenance of the health of the citizens of Nigeria and the formulation of policies. The Council is also tasked with ensuring the delivery of basic health services to the people of Nigeria.

“Therefore, going forward there is a need to build on these learnings and gains to ensure mainstreaming health in all policies. This is because several determinants of health are not particularly within the purview and jurisdiction of the ministry of health but other sister ministries.
