Do you dream of a world where health equity prevails and every child receives life-saving vaccines?As a "Vaccine Mama," I am passionate about using strategic advocacy and community engagement to improve health outcomes, particularly for women and children, in Nigeria and beyond. I am a dynamic leader with a focus on gender programming, vaccine advocacy, and community engagement, with over 13 years of experience in social development and public health. My expertise lies in inclusive program design, advocacy, coalition building, women's empowerment, gender mainstreaming, and auditing. As the founder and CEO of the Vaccine Network for Disease Control, I spearhead initiatives promoting maternal, child, and adolescent health across Nigeria. I have led high-impact projects focused on gender-responsive advocacy and community mobilization for vaccines, working with organizations like Pathfinder International, USAID, and GAVI, among others.I am deeply involved in developing strategies to boost immunization financing and encourage private sector and community contributions to support basic healthcare. I am passionate about gender equality. From conducting gender audits to developing empowering curricula and training programs, I have championed women's inclusion and leadership across various sectors, leaving a lasting imprint on organizations like Veritas University, the Health Research Consortium and Health Sector Reform Coalition (HSRC).I served as the first woman to chair the Health Sector Reform Coalition (HSRC), a diverse group of stakeholders including civil society organizations (CSOs), professional bodies, non- governmental organizations (NGOs), development partners, media outlets, and interested individuals to improve Nigeria's healthcare system.During the COVID-19 pandemic, I served as an RCCE Master Trainer, designing community engagement strategies and equipping over 60 CSOs nationwide with vital skills in risk communication. I continue to share my expertise as a lecturer on community engagement at the West Africa Institute of Public Health.Outside of my job, I lead groups like Business and Professional Women (BPW). I have also learned from The Moth and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation about how to use storytelling to drive positive change.My goal is to make a real difference by turning ideas into action.Are you ready to join hands and be part of the solution?
