EXECUTIVE SI.]MMARY Within the period November 6-10 a team of 3 TCC members, on the recommendation of TCC 13, visited Niger State, to address TCC concerns about Niger State CDTI project. As reported in State Technical Report submitted to TCC 13, mobilization and sensitization of all CDTI communities had not been completed, ratio of 1 CDD per 250 persons was not achieved, therapeutic coverage (267o) was low, treatment figures were inaccurate and financial returns were late. It was found that political will on the part of the state Government was very high and communities were enthusiastic. However, Iate submission of proposals and delay in release of funds resulted in under utilization of funds which in turn resulted in poor programme implementation. Non-standard registers, incomplete registration and determination of endemicity status of communities were the major reasons for inaccurate data and poor record keeping. Apart from the State Coordinator, all other SOCT members worked part-time on the project.The state plan of action was not in synchrony with the Zonal and National plans. Training and supervision was poor. There was lack of proper storage facility for supplies and inventory and there was no storekeeper. The team worked participatorily with NOCP officials, SOCT and LOCT members, UNICEF designate in solving the problems identified. A field trip to three communities afforded rhe group the opportunity to assess project activities at that level. State,Zonal and LGA plans of action for Nov. - Dec. 2001 were developed and a State plan of action for 2002 was revised Training programme and content were revised. The Technical Report was revised inconclusively, as accurate data will only be available in Dec. 200l,after classification of communities and registration of populations in CDTI communities have been completed. Financial Returns were reviewed and response to WHO comments made. The team recommended that State zonal and LGA workplans be prepared well in advanced and synchronized. Proposals should be submitted in time and there should be no delay in approval and release of funds for project activities. Fortunately, UNICEF designate who participated actively in all the mission activities gave assurance that there will not be any delay in approval of funds on the part of UNICEF. This and the promise given by the Permanent Secretary, on behalf of the Ministry 5 of Health, should solve once and for all, problem of delay in approval and release of project funds.The team further recommended that more SOCT members be appointed and assigned LGAs to supervise,using standard supervisory checklist. One more vehicle should be provided to the SOCT,and more motorcycles and bicycles be provided to LOCTs, for supervision. There is an urgent need for storage facility to be provided and a storekeeper appointed for the project. To ensure accuracy of data, a data manager should be appointed, uniform standard treatment registers should be provided, CDDs and LOCTs be trained on record keeping, standard reporting forms be used by LGA coordinators, and state review meetings for collation of data and discussion of the issues be held twice a year. The project was advised to concentrate on completing first round treatment for all communities qualified for CDTI and commence treatment immediately in Babana and Nasarawa districts of Borgu LGA bordering Benin Republic in the OCP zone. 6 C. BACKGROUND Niger State, situated in the middle belt region of Nigeria, occupies about lOVo of the country's landmass, and has a population of 3,168, 477.Borgu Local Government Area, one of the25 administrative units of the state, shares a border with Benin Republic in the OCP zone. Mectizan distribution began in the state in 1990 when Africare ran a pilot distribution project in Borgu Local Government Area. In 1991, Mectizan was formally launched in Minna Niger State for use in Nigeria. Thereafter, UNICEF andGTZ implemented clinic-based and community-based distribution of Mectizan in 4 LGAs. CDTI began in Niger State in 2000 and as at December 2000, a total of 240,140 persons had been treated in 13 LGAs, TCC 13, in September 2001, reviewed Niger State 1" year technical report and noted that progress in implementation of CDTI in the State was slow. Therapeutic coverage was only 25.3Vo and geographical coverage only 43Vo. There were contradictory figures for communities to be treated (608 and 1159) and communities treated (4041 498). Ratio of one CDD to 250 persons was not met. There was also undue delay in release of funds. TCC rqected the report and requested APOC management not to release funds on year 3 budget until TCC concerns are addressed. TCC therefore recommended that three of its members visit Niger State to assist in solving the problems identified. D. TERMS OF REFERENCE The mission was mandated to ensure that Niger State CDTI project achieves the following: . Complete mobilization and sensitization of all endemic communities. . Conclude selection and training of CDDs in remaining endemic villages ensuring ratio of 2 CDDs per 250 persons. . Treat at least 657o of total population of endemic communities. . Resubmit a comprehensive report with accurate treatment data including ATO. . Solve problem of delay in release of funds. 1 E TRIP RE,PORT The team collected the following documents from NOCP and WHO in Lagos before leaving for Niger State: . Niger State CDTI project proposal , Niger State CDTI Technical Reports . Monitoring Report on Niger State . Letter from WHO to NOCP National Coordinator on Ondo State CDTI project Financial Returns Oct. 2000 - Aug. 2001 Nov. 6, 2001...... Minna The team held a joint briefing meeting with the following: . Alhaji S. S. Wushishi - Perm. Sec. Ministry of Health . Mrs. Abigail A. Tsado - Deputy DPHC/ BI . Dr. Y. A. Saka - Assistant Director NOCP Lagos . Dr. Yemi Fayomi - Zonal Coordinator NOCP Zone C Kaduna . Hajiya R. Y. Datti - State Coordinator . Abdulkadir Mohammed - Project Accountant Members of TCC mission team briefed the gathering on APOC philosophy, CDTI activities, APOC financial regulations and concerns of TCC on Niger State CDTI project as reflected in technical report submitted to TCC13. The NOCP National representative stated that after the recently concluded monitoring exercise, steps have been taken to correct the deficiencies found in the project. The National office had held a meeting in Kaduna which UNICEF Representative attended. Mobilization and trainings have been conducted in most LGAs. The NOCP Zonal coordinator informed the gathering that the problem with release of funds will now be solved with the recent appointment by UNICEF of a more accessible signatory representing UNICEF. The Permanent Secretary confirmed that the concerns of TCC were being addressed. He stated that when he attended an APOC Advocacy meeting in Abuja he realized that Niger State was not performing up to standard. On return from the meeting he asked the coordinator to improve. He gave assurance that Government will do all possible to cause significant improvement in performance of the State CDTI project. 8 After the briefing, the team met with the following SOCT member and LGA coordinators l.

Dr. Catherine Gana TINICEF Representative During the meeting, discussions were held on TCC concerns about Niger State CDTI project, implementation issues, and financial issues. The problems identified included delay in submission of proposals,delay in release of funds, low coverage, inaccurate data, poor mobilization of communities, inadequate number of CDDs. The State coordinator stated that Niger State had problems in initial take off of the project. She assured the meeting that all TCC concerns are being addressed. She pointed out that enthusiasm of communities and high CDD retention rate are strengths of the project and gave assurance that problems with release of funds have been overcome. She further stated that there are no outstanding financial returns. The group later worked Participatorily on the technical report, plan of action and financial issues. Prof. Abiose worked with the State Coordinator, National official and two SOCTF members in developing a plan of action for Nov. - Dec. 2001. Dr. El-Hassan worked with the Accountant, UNICEF representative and Zonal coordinator in sorting out financial problems. Prof. Braide worked with a member of SOCT in revising the Technical Report. NOV. 7, 2001......Minna The team met with SOCT and LGA Coordinators. Discussions centered around APOC philosophy, implementation issues, financial issues as Technical and Financial Reports. Reports of previous day's work were presented to the group. Plan of action - State Coordinator 9 Technical Report including data Details of expenditure Approval procedure chart Response to observations by WHO SOCT member Accountant Accountant Accountant NOV.8 2001,Minna The group, comprising TCC mission team members, NOCP officials, SOCT members and LGA Coordinators visited three communities -Zauna in Bosso LGA and Maito in Wushishi LGA and Kaliko in Wushishi LGA. In each community, the group first met with the community leader to explain the mission and seek permission to meet with the entire community. The SOCT members and LGA coordinators gave talks on onchocerciasis, CDTI, role of communities in CDTI. Community members asked questions and discussed the project extensively. During the stay in the communities, the group obtained information on - proportion of persons in gathering who had taken mecctizan - preferred month of distribution - preferred mode of distribution - community rating of CDDs. Request was made for more CDDs to selected were necessary. Treatment registers were examined. and community mobilizedfor completion and commencement of treatment. The field visit was facilitated by NOCP officials. NOV.9 2001,Minna The team held a debriefing/appraisal meeting with: Alhaji S. S. Wushishi Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Health Mrs. Abigail A. Tsado Deputy DPHC/ BI Dr. Catherine Gana UNICEF Representative Hajiya R. Y. Datti State Coordinator Abdulkadir Mohammed Project Accountant Dr. Y. E. Saka AD NOCP Dr. Y. Fayomi Zonal Coordinator l0 The findings as well as activities carried out during the mission were discussed. The Permanent Secretary was concerned about the inability of the project to expend funds available to it. This, he indicated, will make it to difficult to convince government to give more money to the project. He assured the team that all the problems identified will be solved "in house" and Government of Niger State will do all that is necessary for CDTI to be successfully implemented in the state. F. FINDINGS FIELD VISIT The three communities visited were well organized and enthusiastic but not well informed about CDTI particularly about the role of communities, frequency of treatment and exclusion criteria. Treatment had just commenced in the communities, records were poorly kept. In Maito, many families were recorded on a page giving no room for updating of records. There was definitely poor understanding of "Household". It was obvious that quality of training (CDDs) was poor. Mobilization was therefore poor. The SOCTs and LOCTs were not well equiped and prepared for supervision. There was an urgent need for more bicycles and motorcycles as well as adequate funds at LGA level for per diem and fueling. TECHNICAL REPORT The main problem with the Technical Report was inaccurate treatment data arising from lack of a list of meso and hyper endemic communities. It was impossible to calculate the total population qualified for CDTI in the State and therefore geographical coverage and therapeutic coverage. The denominator used in calculating coverage contains population under CBIT and in Hypoendemic communities. 1l PLANNING AND IMPLEMENTATION The team found that at the policy level there is strong political will for the success of the programme and the communities are also very enthusiastic. The State Government and many LGAs have provided financial support to the programme but there are minimal activities on ground to match the support received. Stagnancy of mectizan distribution programme. The Nigerian onchocerciasis control programme using mectizan was launched in Nigeria in Februaury 1991. The State had previous experience of mectizan distribution, having worked in partnership with Africare, UNICEF andGTZ, using mobile team and later community based distribution. Prior to APOC approval of its CDTI project proposal, activities were initially confined to parts of 5 LGAs and later extended to l3 LGAs. However, implementation has been very slow with no attention paid to geographic and therapeutic coverage. There is also a mix-up between the first and second CDTI treatment and many communities have skipped treatment for a year or more. Community identifi cation The identification of communities that qualify for treatment remains uncertain. There is no up to date list of communities to be treated at the State level, even though many LGA Coordinators have lists for their coverage areas. Inadequate SOCT members and Inadequate Supervision. Only the State Coordinator is a permanent staff of the programme. The other SOCT members are fully employed for other activities in the Ministry of Health and work on CDTI and an ad-hoc basis. The result is poor training at all levels, inadequate supervision and inadequate monitoring of activities. t2 Poor staff morale Payment of per diem, staff travel allowances does not take cognisance of approved APOC and government rates and payment is not made as and when due. There is no delegation or clear schedule of duties for existing SOCT members. Lack of support. The office does not have a secretary, data entry/ management staff and store keeper Inadequate State plan preparation and lack of synchrony between national,Zonal and state levels. The available workplan does not specify who is responsible for what, nor are there clearly set targets to be met. The plan is also not tied to budget provision. These lead to rushing of activities and towards the end of the project year with resulting Poor implementation and poor supervision. The programme has only one vehicle, inspite of the fact that Niger State constitutes almost IlVo of the land mass of Nigeria. There are few motorcycles and three others are awaiting collection from WHO Lagos. Adequate provision is often not made for payment when vehicles are hired. Cross-border issues Two districts of Borgu LGA ie. Babena and Nasarawa share borders with Republic of Benin, which is in the OCP zone. Adequate attention has not been directed at complete treatment of these LGAs with high geographic and therapeutic coverage. Poor record keeping Standard hard cover registers with summary forms are not available for use by LGA coordinators and CDDs. Notebooks provided by communities had assorted formats Lack of proper storage of supplies There is no store or storekeeper for project supplies except mectizan which is stored with State essential drugs. There is therefore no inventory available. This makes monitoring of supplies and accounting for their usage impossible. 13 FINANCIAL ISSUES The financial difficulty between UNICEF and the State as regards supervision and financial control has been resolved. The supervisory role has been devolved to NOCP at the Zonal level and a new LTNICEF designate found in the local NGO "Child-to-Child". The representative of this NGO and UNICEF designate to the account, Dr. Catherine Gana parricipated fully in the TCC team visit. Transfer of funds to project3 There were no delays in receipt of first and second years' funds. The amount to be transferred to the project in the first year was $128,940. of this, the project received $110,000 in two timely installments. The sum of $18,940 was not transferred because the project had funds. The project carried forward $421235.74. In the second year, the project received $45,000 of the $91,300 due to it. As at August 2001 $91,676 was available. Submission of proposals by State In the first year 2 sets of proposals were submitted to UNICEF in January and September 2000. In the second year, 2 sets of proposals were submitted to UNICEF in August 0 I . Response to submission by State There were slight delays in approval of proposals of ll -26 by UNICEF in the first sets of submission for 2000 and 2001. The NOCP Zonal Officer did not delay submissions from the State Commencement of field activities. Field activities commenced in the first year of CDTI in April and October 2000. Although approval was granted in early February 2000 field activities were delayed. The further delay to late October did not help implementation of CDTI in the first year. In the second year, field activities did not commence until 11 months after receipt of the TSA. The project had $91 ,676 as at August 2001. t4 Support from partners Expenditure in the first year was less than 50Vo of the approved budget. The project carried forward $42,135.74. Travel ($16,852) - 277o, Education and Mobilization ($12,898) - 20Vo, other expenses($13,287) -Zl%o andTraining($7,895) l}Voaccountedformostof theunder- expenditure. Link between plan of action and expenditure There was no link between the plan of action and expenditure. The delay in commencement of field activities made it difficult to link the plan of action to expenditure. Submission of returns to NOCP/ WHO Returns of expenditure had been submitted up to August 2001 to NOCP. Who had only received the project submission up to April 10 Availability of fuel in State Fuel is scarce in the State. Often fuel is sold at unofficial rates by independent marketers G. ACTIONS TAKEN FIELD VISIT:. Actions taken on findings during field visit are incorporated into implementation issues. TECHNICAL REPORT The Technical report was revised except for inclusion of accurate data which will be available after submissions from LGA Coordinators have been made. Reporting format and forms for LGA Coordinators were developed (APPENDIX 1) l5 IMPLEMENTATION ISSUES Community identifi cation LGA coordinators were asked to produce a list of villages and 8 have already done so. The others will follow the same procedure. Training/ retraining of SOCTs has been provided with guidelines for determination of endemicity level of villages where no data exist. Reconstitution of SOCT. It has been agreed that an expanded SOCT is necessary with at least 8 permanent members who will be fully deployed to the State Secretariat. Draft list have been provided (APPENDIX 2).There is need to reconcile the lists and provide one list of 8 members. Preparation of plans of action for Nov/ Dec. 2001 and revision of 2002 plan. Plans of action have been prepared for the State, LGAs and zone for the rest of the year and reporting forms have been developed for use at all levels (APPENDIX 3). A checklist has also been provided for supervision (APPENDIX 4). An effort was made to synchronize the state plan with the zonal plan to ensure implementation of follow-up actions and adequate supervision. Workplans for 8 LGAs with budgetary component were also prepared. Review of training content The training content for all levels was reviewed (APPENDIX 5) Participation of I-lllICEF designate in preparation and financial review. The UNICEF designate was co-opted into the review team and chaired the session at which LGA workplans were reviewed. This afforded her an opportunity to fully understand APOC philosophy, CDTI implementation and financial flow. FINANCIAL ISSAES Delays in submission Discussed delays in submissions of proposals with MOH, NOCP, Zonal Coordinator, SOCT and UNICEF designate signatory. The State agreed to ensure that proposals are submitted on time. l6 Funding for implementation of CDTI Funding of activities for Nov. to Dec. was discussed with the State, NOCP and UNICEF designate signatory. The funds were to released to the coordinators on 12l 11/ OI(APPENDIX 6). Use of financial report as a monitoring tool. The use of the monthly financial report as a monitoring tool was discussed and reviewed with the State and LJNICEF signatory.(APPENDIX 7) Review of returns to NOCP and WHO We received the project returns to NOCP and WHO with the project accountant and UNICEF signatory and reiterated the importance of monthly submissions (APPENDIX 8) Use of Logbooks by project The WHO vehicle logbook was photocopied for the project. The Accountant would produce bound copies for use by the project driver and officers. PLAN OF ACTION 2OO2 Plan of action 2002 submitted to the team by the State Coordinator was reviewed and comments made (APPENDIX 9) t7 H. RECOMMENDATIONS S/N FINDINGS RECOMMENDATION ACTION BY DATE EXPECTED OUTCOME No linkage between workplan of Zone and State.

UNICEF NOCP ZONE SOCT LOCT Dec.7 Proper geographical and therapeutic coverage calculated. Accurate baseline information and data for CDTI implementation in Niger State obtained. 20 RECOMMENDATIONS ON 2OO2 PLAN OF ACTION AND BTJDGET 1. Item I should be broken into bicycles, motorcycles and office equipment. 2. Mectizan should be removed from acquisition 3. Actions should be broken into months and indication given as to who to implement (by whom) 4. There are IEC materials in the office undistributed. Also, N665, 000 has been approved for 5. registers and IEC materials. There is no justification for requesting for more funds for production of IEC materials. 6. Commemoration of Oncho week/ day should be decentralized and carried out in all LGAs simultaneously. Activities planned for the day should be itemized. 7 . Number of persons from permanent SOCT members for computer training should be specified. It is advisable that payment be made to recognized computer schools for training of these persons. 8. Registration and validation should be part of CDD routine assignment and SOCT and LOCT monitoring and supervision. No separate funds are required for this if CDDs complete registers properly and LOCTs collate population data accurately. 9. Specify supplies required. Give quantity and justification. 10. Monitoring and evaluation should be included in the plan. 11. Specify who constitutes targets for advocacy. Too much money is requested for advocacy. Hold stakeholders meeting during which advocacy can be carried out. 12. Items 2, 8 and 2I are duplications. Procedure 10,000 treatment registers once and for all. These registers should contain 50 sheets (100 pages) each and have summary sheets. 2t 13. Maintain an inventory logbook for all supplies. Close inventory at end of each year, so during requisition for each item accurate number required can be stated. Also keep equipment maintenance logbook. 22 APPENDIX 1.
