Despite high awareness and willingness to screen, actual screening uptake was remarkably low. A key takeaway is that awareness alone isn’t enough. We must also address the barriers to health-seeking behaviour, especially affordability and accessibility.

In a 7-minute presentation, I shared our experience managing this rare complication of regional anesthesia and discussed the rationale behind immediate spine exploration. I'm thankful to my co-authors & the organisers of the conference for this opportunity!

The UNICEF U-report team visited Olokuta secondary school to commemorate Menstrual Hygiene Day, where we spoke to the students about menstrual hygiene, introduced them to different menstrual products, answered their questions, and distributed sanitary pads.

Period education is very important at this stage because it equips young girls with accurate information and helps them make informed decisions about their health. This has become a yearly tradition for me & I hope to continue spreading the menstrual hygiene gospel ✨

I had an incredible experience assisting during a bilateral hernioplasty. Being trusted by my superiors to contribute this way means a lot to me. The next time I’m in the OR, it will be as an intern. What a journey it’s been!

A statewide polio campaign for children aged 0–59 months is starting soon, following recent outbreaks in parts of Kwara state. As a U-Reporter, I’m happy to be a part of this movement & I’m committed to supporting polio eradication in Nigeria.
