So the ONE #MakeNaijaStronger Campaign and BattaBox have teamed up in Abuja, the capital of Nigeria, to find out: what do Nigerians think of their primary healthcare facilities? Is government funding sufficient for basic, minimum healthcare or is the 1% of the basic healthcare provision fund critical to improve current health realities?

Take Action Today with the ONE campaign in Nigeria:

Given the urgency of this issue, we hope to translate this discourse into tangible actions. You can join our member action by going to a primary health care facility near you, taking a picture of the facility, and sharing it on social media using the hashtag #MyNaijaClinic and #makenaijastronger.

Please tag the National Assembly and the Presidency on the picture. You can find us on twitter @ONEinNigeria.

“I trust Nigerian hospitals, but it’s very funny, because the President tells us we should patronise Nigerian products flies himself abraod when he is sick,” says one young Nigerian.

“If you go to public hospitals, you will need to pay money for so many things before a doctor even attends to you,” says one Nigerian lady.

“I use private healthcare because I get the best there,” says one Abuja businessman.

“The private clinics have much better and more equipment than government hospitals,” says a Nigerian student.

The problem is on several levels, but one of them is not enough government funding and transparency of funds for the health sector in Nigeria.

Family Planning is the controlling/ spacing intervals of children within a couple building up a family. The Nigerian Population is said to be over 180 million people according to the united Nations, Of which an annual population growth of 2.7% was recorded between the year 2010 and 2015. Bearing this in mind one would think Nigeria should set up a scheme to cub this growth.

Odunayo sets out with the Battabox Team, to visit traditional maternity home and also ask people on the street to find out if they know about family planning and how many kids there are willing to conceive in the long run. Shocking revelations were discovered!

Here are some of the comments:

“I will like to have 5 children because my mom gave birth to 5”.

“I don’t have any interest in family planning”

“I will Space my children within 2 years”.

“Many of my patients wish to have many kids”.

“I don’t know about family planning, mine is for my husband to impregnate me and i give birth”.

The level of exposure and willingness about family planning and number of kids desired by these women shows that the prediction made for Nigeria’s population by 2050 to surpass the United States is sure to come to past. The forecast states that by 2050, Nigeria’s population would surpass that of the United State, and its population would have reached 400 million, and that by 2100 Nigeria’s population would have risen to one billion possibly beating china’s population.
