THE STANDARD WORLD By Agency | April 7th 2021 Youth leaders and civil society groups from across Nigeria are urging the government to invest in equity enhancing strategies to restore crumbling services for women, newborns, children and adolescents.  They spoke on the World Health Day being held at the backdrop of the COVID-19 pandemic which continues to threaten the improvement in health and social services. This year, the theme for World Health Day is ‘Building a fairer, healthier world’ which reminds many of a need to invest in equity enhancing strategies to address the needs of the most vulnerable.    “COVID-19 has exacerbated inequities, putting at risk hard won gains that have been made over the past decade,” says Helga Fogstad, Executive Director of the Partnership for Maternal, Newborn and Child Health (PMNCH).
