On the occasion of the mid-term, Dr. Lucile Imbua, representative of the UN agency in
Togo, commended the government for progress. It recommended, however, more effort in terms of maternal and child health, the results are too modest.
To AIDS, tuberculosis, malaria, Ebola and many other diseases, Prime Minister Arthème Ahoomey-Zunu made improving working conditions for health workers and the health facilities a priority.
'To achieve tangible results, government and health workers must work together to provide the best services to the people,' said Mr. Ahoomey-Zunu.
The head of government has a strong appeal to health workers, 'How can we understand that in 2015, there is not a wise woman in all peripheral health centers in our country? How can we understand that all health centers are not equipped prefectural surgeons and even gynecologists. All these questions requires us to tell us frankly, honestly, sincerely and without hypocrisy but in the respect of all. The government can succeed in this ambition to take care of the health of our citizens if it is not with you, the leaders of the health sector. '
Programs funded by WHO include tuberculosis, AIDS, malaria, maternal and child health and disability.
