Governments at all levels should give priority to advocacy to strengthen the Health sector in the country.

National Monitoring and Evaluation Officer, Network of People Living with HIV/AIDS in Nigeria, NEPWHAN, Mr Jerry Antai stated this at an ongoing training for the state advocacy team at Mauve 21 in Ibadan.

Mr Antai explained that when the government gave adequate attention to advocacy, it would address and identify health lapses needed in the community down to the grassroots.

Contributing, a member of the advocacy group, Mr Adio Olusegun, decried negligence of advocacy, noting that the achievements of the team most times were low compared to the high number of Organizations in the country.

Mr Olusegun warned Organizations not to abuse or politicize advocacy, for good development.

Representative of traditional rulers in Ibadan, Baálè of Oluyole Estate and Environs, Yemi Ogunyemi urged the government to provide necessary care  for the people in terms of security and quality health services.
