Why is nobody saying anything about this?
Why are we all silent?

I have been sick and confined to the room. I'm suffering from Typhoid and maleria having already done some tests.

The drugs prescribed for me are not affordable at all. I'm someone that hardly fall sick. I have never been admitted to the hospital, but this time if I had the resources, I would gladly submit myself to the hospital for comprehensive treatment because the typhoid has already eaten me so deeply. I've lost my sense for taste, my eyes are always teary and my vision blurred. A lot that I can't mention. When it started last year, I didn't give much attention to it because I felt I was a commando and James Bond so nothing was going to happen to me. Now, same typhoid has brought me down to my knees and made me a vegetable.
I went to the pharmacy and when I was told the cost of the drugs, the illness increased instantly and I became drowsy right there. I left there disappointed.
What's going on?
Is it that the government want to increase mortality rate ?
This is evil.

Nobody wants to spend their hardearned money on medications. Nobody prays to be sick. Something needs to be done as quickly as possible. Where is our minister of health?
If I die, know that Nigeria happened to me.

@Freestuffsng says drugs are for rich people or whatever

If you fall sick this period wahala for you.

Better use mosquitoe net, drink clean water (typhoid) and avoid ulcer.

These 3 are the main ailments young Nigerians have. Do these 3 and you'll likely stay healthy cos cost of drugs now na die oo.


For elderly people, drink alcohol responsibly for the sake of Hypertension. 1 bottle every 2 weeks is moderate enough.

Who get ear make e hear cos Pharmacies now sell expensive drugs.

Drugs are expensive,no doubt,

The price of every other stuffs have gone high and drugs cannot be an exception.

I will advise you seek for help from family members, friends or neighbors

Alternatively, you can try herbs

It is greed from the pharmaceutical companies.

The National Health insurance service costs less than 25k/year and subsidises some of the drug costs.

I wholly agree with you Sir 🙏

This is not to seem insensitive but drug prices are expensive everywhere. The corporations producing these drugs are in the profit business. Their sole aim is profit maximization and not healing the sick or whatever noble purpose we may think. Which is why it is always advisable to have an insurance plan especially to cover health.
I wish you the best but please, sign up for the NHIS plan. God bless.
