The Federal Government on Thursday disclosed that all
states, including the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) would receive N100
million each to boost their response against Coronavirus.
This was disclosed by the Minister of Health, Osagie Ehanire
during Thursday’s Presidential Task Force (PTF) on COVID-19.
Ehanire disclosed that a huge amount would come from the
Regional Diseases Surveillance Enhancement (REDISSE) Project.
“I am pleased to mention that all states of the federation,
including the FCT are receiving support from the COVID-19 response through the
Regional Diseases Surveillance Enhancement (REDISSE) Project.
“With this support, all states of the federation will receive
N100 million to enhance high impact priority response activities. The soon to
be reactivated BHCPF will join the funding pool,” he said.
The REDISSE Project was initiated by the World Bank to cover
all countries in the ECOWAS sub-region as a consequence of the 2014‒2015 West
Africa Ebola crisis.
