Nigeria launches hub to enhance immunisation coverage

The National Primary Health Care Development Agency (NPHCDA), on Monday, launched the Zero Dose Learning Hub (ZDLH) as part of its effort to increase immunisation coverage in the country.

Speaking at the launch in Abuja, Nigeria’s Federal Capital Territory, the Executive Director of NPHCDA, Faisal Shuaib, said the hub would provide a framework for the country to promptly generate evidence strategies.
