Nigerian Nurses reveal the salary range for Nurses in Nigeria

Healthcare doesn't fail because of bad doctors. It fails because good doctors can't function in a system designed to suffocate them.

We are not doing well for Cancer care in Nigeria. We need more Radiological diagnostics, testing. Oncology services, radiotherapy and more palliative care centers. It is an untapped niche I see that is golden. If you have funds or know people. Do something!!!

A few years ago, I had a brain surgery, and every year since then, I do an MRI scan to stay alive. I just did my latest scan at a facility in Abuja that I would have traveled abroad for before. So, the next time your doctor says ‘this test is not available in Nigeria,’ you might want to watch this first.

This is male hostel for University of Nigeria Nsukka (UNN). Eni Njoku hostel to be precise. Every student in this hostel is living worst than prisoners. We can’t continue this way.

US-based Nigerian doctor dies during Abia State medical outreach Dr. Uzoma Nwaubani, a U.S.-based doctor, died after a sudden medical emergency while participating in a free medical outreach in Abia State. She had returned to Nigeria with her husband and daughter — a 5th year medical student for the five-day programme organized by Association of Nigerian Physicians in the Americas (ANPA) in collaboration with the Abia State Government. Despite urgent efforts by fellow doctors to resuscitate her, she could not be saved. What began as a mission to heal ended in tragedy. This is sad.

So... It's official! I have satisfied my examiners!😁 Dr. Falokun Oluwatobiloba William. [MBChB(Hons), Ife]- Get familiar!🫵 Passed my Final Year Exams with distinctions in Internal Medicine, Surgery and Community Health! Had 11/12 distinctions in total! (Joint Highest!)🔥💥

They budgeted 135 billion as a legal fee for INEC, whilst only 36 million was released for the healthcare of Nigerians

Nigeria completes plans to acquire helicopter for emergency healthcare services

With all the money private universities collect in Nigeria, it is quite sad that a student will die because a private university clinic lacks something as basic as oxygen equipment.

Resident doctors are set to begin a nationwide indefinite strike from midnight You’d think the Minister of Health would be engaging them in serious dialogue to resolve the issues, right? Wrong. Instead, he is currently in France, inspecting and negotiating to buy emergency medical helicopters from Airbus. Yes, air ambulances. While the doctors who actually run our hospitals are complaining about unpaid promotion arrears, scrapped allowances, and broken agreements. This is the same country where basic healthcare is struggling, yet the priority right now is shopping for helicopters abroad. If they explain Nigeria to you and you understand it, then they didn’t explain it well.

One day, I'll snap my call food and send. I know that's the day I'll enter trouble in this hospital. I'd honestly prefer no food at all to this.

The amount Tinubu and his son has spent on the Citiboy movement is enough to make significant improvement in the Nigerian healthcare system.
