The claim that healthcare in Nigeria has improved is unverified. As of February 13, 2024, at least 4200 nurses had left Nigeria in 3 years, and there is one doctor for every 5,000 patients - a huge shortage of quality staff. https://www.channelstv.com/2024/02/13/42000-nurses-have-left-nigeria-in-three-years-says-fg https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2023/aug/14/africa-health-worker-brain-drain-acc Healthcare still lags far behind other countries https://www.thelancet.com/pb/assets/raw/Lancet/infographics/nigeria/image.pdf
