Gatefield warns financial hardship, corruption are undermining Nigerians’ health

On Wednesday in Abuja, public strategy firm Gatefield released findings from the LiveWell Longevity Factor Report, warning that widespread financial hardship and corruption are severely undermining the health of Nigerians.

Presenting the report, Mr. Emoruwa explained that the determinants of Nigerian life expectancy extend far beyond immediate causes of illness. Specifically, he highlighted that the high cost of medical treatment, negative experiences with public services, and prolonged exposure to pollution are critical factors negatively impacting citizens' longevity and overall well-being.
