First Lady of Nigeria
The First Lady of Nigeria, Sen. Oluremi Shade Tinubu CON today celebrate with all health workers in Nigeria on the occasion of this year’s World Health Day. Highlighting their great sacrifice to ensure health and wellness of the general population, she addressed the matter of maternal and neonatal health.
In her message, the First Lady stated: ‘As we commemorate the World Health Day 2025, with the theme, “Healthy Beginnings, Hopeful Futures,” let us all remember that investing in maternal and newborn health is not only a moral responsibility but also a fundamental cornerstone of sustainable development.’
‘Every day, far too many women and newborns lose their lives due to preventable complications during pregnancy, childbirth, and postnatal period. No mother should have to risk her life to bring a child into the world, and no newborn should be denied a fair chance at survival.’
‘On this World Health Day, let us all strive to create a world where mothers can safely give birth and children can live healthy to reach their full potential.’
‘Congratulations to all our health workers for your great sacrifice to make the world a healthy place. Happy World Health Day!’
