She stressed that breastfeeding reduces the risk of infant mortality, promotes bonding between mothers and their children, and enhances the cognitive development of babies.

“Breast milk is the best gift we can give our children, and we must do everything possible to promote and support breastfeeding,” she added.

Also speaking, Dr Khadeejah Alarape, Director of Nutrition, Oyo Primary Health Care Board enlightened the nursing mothers on the need to eat good food.

She assured that the state government would continue to support initiatives that promote breastfeeding and improve maternal and child health.
