AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Edo Health Planning: Edo State says its 2026 Annual Operational Plan will tighten health programme delivery, improve coordination, and boost how resources are used—via a dissemination meeting with partners including WHO and USAID. Health Training Expansion: Wellspring University, Benin City, got NUC approval for five new health-focused undergraduate programmes (MBBS, Human Anatomy, Human Physiology, Health Information Management, and Community Health Science) starting 2026/2027. Community Care Push: NYSC provided free medical services to residents in Edo’s Aduwawa community, including consultations, eye care, hypertension screening, health education, free medicines, and referrals. Drug Control in Edo: NDLEA arrested 42 suspected drug traffickers and seized 4,905.36kg of illicit drugs in June, destroying three cannabis plantations. Mental Health Support: Edo reunited a 53-year-old deportee found wandering in Benin City with his family and referred him for specialist psychiatric care at the Federal Neuropsychiatric Hospital, Uselu. Local Environment & Health Link: In southern Benin, community-led action is helping mangroves rebound—protecting coastal ecosystems that support safer livelihoods.
