Pate said their work was geared towards saving lives, reducing pain and producing health.

He said, “It’s time for renewal. It is also a time for optimism, given what we know has happened in the past.

“Looking forward, there is a lot of potential for improvement in terms of where we can go going forward for Nigerian citizens to live better and healthier.”

Alausa said their administration would create a fund for medical research and also begin to digitalise Nigeria’s health care system.
