TODAY IN GLOBAL HEALTH | Gaps in Care, Supply Chains and Ethics in Nigerian Healthcare

On this episode of Today in Global Health, Oluwakayode sits with Prof. Ngwaba to examine critical gaps in Nigeria’s healthcare system, beginning with the alarming shortage of antivenom for snakebite victims and the absence of a functional supply-chain and logistics framework to preserve lives.

The conversation also interrogates clinical decision-making and ethics, including the misuse of high-cost diagnostics like MRI for elderly patients where they offer limited value, and the broader issue of excessive treatment driven by profit rather than patient need. Clear-eyed and urgent, this episode challenges how care is delivered, how resources are allocated, and what must change to place patient welfare back at the centre of the system.
