“During my time spent working in the hospital, I saw the suffering people went through to access healthcare, due to high cost or unavailability.

I set out to understand the financial and political aspects of policy-making in healthcare and learned how to formulate, evaluate, and improve on existing policies.

“Several countries have gone through health system reforms and their experiences can be leveraged upon to produce changes that will be financially feasible and acceptable to both healthcare providers and the Nigerian population.”
