Gov. Rabiu Kwankwaso of Kano State says his government will train 2,200 Traditional Birth Attendants on safe delivery to curb mother-to-child transmission of the HIV virus.
\nKwankwaso said this during the celebration of World Cancer Day and distribution of free medical, surgical and drugs to hospitals in the state.<\/p>\n

He explained that the training would enrich the skills of the traditional birth attendants on safe delivery of babies.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are very happy that there is tremendous increase in pregnant women attending pre- and post-natal clinics across the state.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is further encouraged by the free drugs programme introduced by the state government for pregnant women,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

He said that the state government in collaboration with ALGON purchased over 98,000 self examination kits for women against breast cancer.<\/p>\n

The News Agency of Nigeria reports that Kwankwaso also distributed five hilux pick-up vans to zonal Primary Health Care offices.<\/p>\n

The governor gave out two 18-seater coaster bus to the School of Midwifery at Gezawa and School of Nursing at Madobi Local Governments.<\/p>\n
