Taraba State Commissioner for health, Dr. Innocent Vakkai on Saturday said, the state government is putting possible efforts to ensure the availability of commodities in all primary health care for effective access to family planning in the state.
Vakkai stated this while speaking to newsmen in Jalingo, expressing that family planning as a method to managing the growth of mankind, was key in the administrative drive of governor Darius Ishaku.

“We have conducted our research and it has proven that a good number of Tarabians have understood and accepted family planning.
