    Assisting Good Governance and Health in Nigeria

    The U.S. Agency for International Development, or USAID, recently announced additional assistance to support achieving the goals outlined in the bilateral Development Objectives Assistance Agreement between the U.S. and Nigerian governments signed in 2015.

    25 million dollars will strengthen good governance by supporting state governments' efforts to bolster Nigeria's Open Government Partnership commitments to improve transparency and fight corruption.An additional 1.5 million dollars will support a healthier, more educated population in targeted states through the U.S. President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief, also known as PEPFAR, for a total of 26.5 million dollars in additional assistance.

    The additional new funding brings the total U.S. government assistance provided under the five-year Development Objectives agreement to 1.1 billion dollars.

    USAID is also working with federal and state health ministries to build stronger health systems with the aim of guaranteeing equitable access to quality healthcare services nationwide.

    USAID collaborated with Nigeria's ministries of Budget and National Planning, Health, Agriculture, Power, and Education, as well as state-level government counterparts to structure the bilateral assistance agreement, which runs through 2020.

    “The United States believes that as the most populous country in Africa, with the largest economy on the continent, Nigeria holds tremendous influence over the future of Africa,” Acting Mission Director Erin Holleran said. “USAID is committed to partnering with the government and the people of Nigeria to address its development challenges.”
