The Special Adviser to the President on Health, Dr Salma Anas, has warned that Nigeria can no longer rely on β€œexternal benevolence” in building its healthcare system.

Anas made this submission on Friday in Abuja at the 9th Annual Health Conference of the Association of Nigerian Health Journalists (ANHeJ).

The theme of the conference was β€œDomestic Resource Mobilisation in the Face of Dwindling Foreign Grants and Aid.”

According to her, donor fatigue is real, and Nigeria will inevitably graduate from multiple aid programmes.
