Nigerians have been asked to report COVID-19 and other health issues via a newly launched online portal by the Federal Government.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Ministry of Health\u2019s Permanent Secretary, Abdulaziz Abdullahi gave the advice when he received COVID-19<\/a> sensitisation materials, donated by the Institute of Electrical Electronic Engineers (IEEE) Young Professionals, Nigeria Section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

IEEE donated the materials as part of measures to curtail the pandemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Receiving 1,000 posters from the institute in Abuja on behalf of the Federal Government on Tuesday, Abdullahi said that Nigerians should imbibe safe care-seeking behaviour and \u201cvisit the new platform, www.hpd.health.gov, to report health issues.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to a statement by IEEE, Abdullahi added, \u201cThis step by Nigerians will assist the government to keep track of COVID-19, infectious and non-infectious diseases in Nigeria.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The institution\u2019s Nigeria Section chairman, John Adebayo, stressed the importance of strong partnership with the government \u201cto addressing the containment of COVID-19 and promote healthy initiatives in Nigeria.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
