Looking for why Osinbajo confesses finally that Buhari led government can’t provide Nigerians adequate health care services

The Vice President Yemi Osinbajo on Monday, made it known that the Federal government can not provide adequate healthcare for all Nigerians.

Represented at the national health dialogue organized by Premium Times in Abuja by his Chief Physician Nicolas Audiferren, Osinbajo stated that the best thing for the nation will be an effective national health insurance scheme.

“It has become obvious that the government, both at the state and federal levels, cannot adequately provide health care services.

That’s the simple truth,” he said.

“Our view is that an effective national health insurance scheme remains the best option for the development of our sector and for efficient health care services in this country.”
