On Day 2 of the Joint Annual Review (JAR) conference, the Coordinating Minister of Health and Social Welfare, Prof. @muhammadpate, announced that Cesarean sections will be offered free to all Nigerian women in need, as part of the new Maternal Mortality Reduction Innovation and Initiatives (MAMII) project.
