The Federal Government has reported a 60% reduction in maternal deaths in communities covered by its Maternal and Newborn Mortality Reduction Innovation Initiative (MAMII) between 2024 and 2026. Coordinating Minister of Health and Social Welfare, Prof. Muhammad Pate, attributed the reduction to improved access to skilled birth attendants, emergency referral services, and maternal healthcare facilities under the initiative.
Pate highlighted that 91% of Basic Health Care Provision Fund-supported facilities in MAMII areas now have at least two midwives or community health extension workers, while 99% of the facilities were connected to emergency referral systems.
