Federal Government Programmes And Health Status In Nigeria (2004 - 2008) (A Case Study Of Kogi State)

ABSTRACT

Before and after independence Nigeria was plagued with the problem of how

to cope with the health status of her citizenry. This problem cut across every

segment of the society. Surprisingly little or no attention was accorded it until

the nation was engulfed in civil war. After the civil war, the health status of

Nigerians deteriorated. A quick look at it shows a deplorable state of health of

Nigeria citizens characterized by infection of all kinds or diseases and

infirmities. The health aspirations of Nigeria state after the civil war was

exemplified by her various health programmes and projects. It has indeed

embarked upon programmes in order to accelerate the rate of growth of the

Nigerians health standard. Such programmes and projects are: primary Health

care Delivery, Expanded programme on Immunization, War Against

indiscipline, Roll Back Malaria etc. A critical look at the above seems to

suggest that the only thing that kept on changing is the nomenclatures while

the contents remained the same. This research therefore, anchored on the

effects of these various programmes and projects on the health status of

Nigerians. It also aimed at providing the missing link (s) that may be revealed

in the course of this research work through literature review and hypotheses.

The researcher, in the course of this work intends to apply probabilistic

techniques which involves the application of randomization and invariably

adopts quantitative research method in analyzing research findings.
