The Taraba State Government has put plans in place to reduce maternal and child deaths in the state.
Madaki, who disclosed that no fewer than 591 volunteers have been recruited for the programme, expressed sadness at the rate at which Nigeria continues to lose women and under-five children to preventable causes. The CHIPS programme, according to him, will ameliorate the situation as it will motivate people in rural areas to respond to routine immunisations.
Also speaking, the wife of the state governor, Agyin Kefas, noted that the CHIPS programme is designed to encourage and support local households to seek primary health care services at clinics and outreach programmes across the state.
