"We need to give power to all stakeholders and create that space where every stakeholders can have conversations to forge common thread. Because a woman who is pregnant doesn’t want to die. Her child, she doesn’t want to see it die." Dr. Ufuoma Festus Omo-Obi (JP) at #PHCforUHC NPHCDA

"We need to act so that in one year's time, we will see a significant decline in maternal and newborn mortality in Nigeria." Dr. Ufuoma Festus Omo-Obi (JP) #PHCforUHC NPHCDA

"My people in Nigeria. The time has come. If we don’t have #UHC + at least 60% coverage in the next few years, Nigeria is going to implode. We have to dream together that whatever it takes, we'll have #UHC. Today is that first day of that journey. " Dr. Ekpedeme Udom #PHCforUHC

"We have maternal health outcomes that aren't acceptable. They correlate to basic services (e.g. antenatal care) that are far in terms of their reach + where they need to be. Substantial progress has been made but we’re moving too slow." Dr. Muyi Aina @nphcdaNG #PHCforUHC

"It’s time for us to look at where we've gone wrong + what we’re going to do in the future. If you want different results, you can't continue to do the same things. So we need to involve communities. The time for action is now." Lucia #PHCforUHC #Connected4Action

"If you want to go fast, you walk alone. If you want to walk far, you walk together. This is why we have launched the E4A MamaYe Africa Collective." Lucia at our #PHCforUHC event in Abuja. #Connected4Action
