Are you pregnant, about to conceive or of child bearing age?
Then you need to know these important facts to better prepare against unfortunate times during delivery:
3 REASONS GIVING BIRTH IN NIGERIA IS RISKY

#1. SHORTAGE OF WORKERS
With a few hands on ground and a long queue of pregnant women waiting to be attended to, the available nurses and midwives have to do whatever is convenient to still meet up.
Thus, giving you an episiotomy with a sharp blade would be an easier option for them while you bear the damages.
Sometimes the only staff on ground is the one that lacks experience as to what exactly needs to be done.
Isn’t that enough reason you should try to know what to expect so you can tell when they are playing games with your life and stop them?
Of course, a major reason for shortage of workers is that the hospital wants to pay few workers to possibly still make more profit. That's for private owned facilities. Then, for government hospitals, it is mostly that the staff are not often at their duty post.

#2. LACK OF SPACE FACILITY
In most maternity centres where space is lacking the nurses and midwives are also left with no better option than that which saves time and space, so they can quickly discharge you to attend to others.
As a result, they don't exercise the patience to see you deliver naturally and safely.

#3. LACK OF EQUIPMENT
This is another big issue – either that the equipment is not available or that the available one is not functional. Why on earth will a hospital know they aren’t ready, yet they are admitting patients – to waste two lives (mother and child).
Isn’t that a death trap?
I was reading an article the other time on the website of the NIGERIAN HEALTH WATCH, and it was about a man that the wife gave birth with injuries and the hospital didn’t have this common drug to control the bleeding. By the time the man returned from where he went to check for the drug, the wife had passed on. The worse part was that the man left the matter to go like that because he felt that even if he should take a legal action, it will still be both waste of time and resources.
