Nigeria has all it takes to guarantee safe motherhood – TCI
A global urban reproductive health group, The Challenged Initiative, TCI, has said the Nigerian government has what it takes to ensure safe motherhood in the country.
TCI explained that safe motherhood starts with informed choices, timely access to family planning and a community that supports women at every step of their reproductive journey.
The Country Team Lead of TCI Nigeria, Dr.Taiwo Johnson, made the assertion on Sunday in a statement commemorating the 2025 Safe Motherhood Day, with the theme, ‘Healthy beginnings, Hopeful futures’.
Johnson stated that the Nigerian government needs a strong political will in making and implementing policies that would ensure safe motherhood.
She also stated that sustainable funding for Family planning commodities and services as well as intentional grassroots engagement would significantly guarantee safe motherhood practice in the country.
*With growing political will, sustainable funding, and grassroots engagement, Nigeria is closer than ever to making safe motherhood not just a goal — but a guarantee. TCI’s support has proven that states can lead their own reproductive health transformations
