Welcome to SPHPN

Everyone is welcome to join

SPHPN was formed in 2012 as the all-comers in public health association of all disciplinary public health specialists as well as everyone else of the public health services in Nigeria. As the society admits members whether as corporate membership of an already existing and CAC-registered disciplinary public health association or as individuals in their own rights - everybody is welcome to join the association. One of the objectives of SPHPN is to assist any already existing disciplinary public health association to strive and succeed in fulfilling the objectives that they had set for themselves in founding such association as well as to help them to work cooperatively and successfully to pursue and achieve the corporate interests of the SPHPN in the specific. In this way, the inter-cadre rivalry and lack of productivity and genuine fulfillments in these disciplines will be drastically reduced.

It can be said that there are four basic and primary things that the mass of people in a society wish for: to live in a safe environment, to be able to work and provide for themselves, to have access to good public health and to have sound educational opportunities for their children.

Nelson Mandela
Health care is vital to all of us some of the time, but public health is vital to all of us all of the time.

C. Everett Koop
And I believe that the best buy in public health today must be a combination of regular physical exercise and a healthy diet.

Julie Bishop
We need to be as well prepared to defend ourselves against public health dangers as we should be to defend ourselves against any foreign danger.

Hillary Clinton
