The Chief Executive Officer of APIN Public Health Initiatives (APIN), Dr. Prosper Okonkwo, has said the group is poised to enhance its ability to address a broader scope of public health challenges in Nigeria.

Dr. Okonkwo, in a statement by APIN information officer, Emerald Awa-Agwu said the commissioning of its corporate headquarters in Abuja, which would be operational in January 2021, would provide the much-needed workspace for APIN’s fast-growing team to explore and contribute to current and emerging public health issues.

“This strategic move will also allow the organization to leverage and build on its experience implementing interventions and projects in thematic areas such as HIV/AIDS and Maternal and Child Health, and pursue a more diverse range of opportunities within the development and humanitarian space,” the statement said.

APIN Public Health Initiatives is a non-governmental organization that designs and executes projects to reduce the burden of diseases and public health challenges in Nigeria.
