Tracka has confirmed an improvement in the condition of the Primary Health Care (PHC) facility in Duma, Lapai Local Government Area of Niger State, following a recent monitoring visit.
According to the civic accountability platform, the facility previously observed in a poor state during a 2025 assessment has now been fully upgraded to a Level II Primary Health Centre and has been in operation since September 2025.
The latest inspection revealed significant improvements in infrastructure and service readiness compared to the earlier visit, indicating progress in the delivery of primary healthcare services to residents of the community.
However, Tracka noted that despite the upgrade and operational status of the facility, the surrounding environment remains incomplete, with landscaping of the compound yet to be carried out.
The organization called on the National Primary Health Care Development Agency (NPHCDA) to intervene and ensure the completion of the external works, particularly the landscaping of the health centre to improve its overall environment and usability.
Tracka reiterated its advocacy stance, urging continued accountability in public infrastructure projects and stressing that public funds must be effectively utilized for the benefit of citizens.
