The Commissioner for Health in Zamfara State, Aisha Anka, says no fewer than 950,000 women in the state are at high risk of maternal deaths.
Ms Anka said this on Monday in Gusau, the state capital, during the opening ceremony of a five-day workshop on preventable maternal deaths, for health workers in the state.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the training was organised by a non-governmental organisation, Health for Life and Development Foundation, in collaboration with the state’s Ministry of Health and the Hospital Services Management Board.
