Good will message
Dr. Temple R. Iluma (SACA Chairman) advocated that as part of comprehensive response to HIV and AIDS and for the Universal Access to HIV Prevention, Treatment, Care and Support to be achieved,
it require the Leaders, Stakeholders, Individuals, NGOs, CSOs and Private Sectors to integrate Nutritional support into their programmes for the People Living With HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) in order to ensure access to sufficient, safe and nutritious food to enable them meet their dietary needs for an active and healthy life; mindful of the high potency of the ARV drugs, it’s only proper that these people are well fed. He also called on the State House of Assembly to pass into law, a bill that will protect the right of the PLWHA against discrimination and stigmatization.
He further stressed the need for the establishment of HIV/AIDS INSTITUTE in Bayelsa State. This will serve as a hub for Niger Deltans where comprehensive treatment, care and up-to-date support services would be given to the HIV/AIDS victims in the region.
In pursuant of our target to fight HIV/AIDS to finish in our beloved State, SACA hereby welcome partnerships with International Donor Agencies, Non-Governmental Organizations, Private Sectors and the Stakeholders.
