Cole-Adeife, who works at the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital, Ikeja, made the call on Thursday during the 19th Annual General Meeting and Scientific Conference of the Nigerian Association of Dermatologists (NAD).
The three-day conference had the theme: “Dermatology and Global Health: Bridging the Gap.”
She noted that Nigeria accounted for more than 25 per cent of all NTD cases in Africa, making it the country with the highest NTD burden on the continent.
