Nigeria remains one of the unsafe places for pregnant women.
According to a 2023 WHO report, the country ranks second globally in maternal deaths, recording 512 maternal deaths per 100,000 live births—a staggering contrast to the UN’s target of 70 by 2030.
In 2020 alone, 82,000 women lost their lives to pregnancy-related complications, while 40 million women of childbearing age continue to face severe maternal health risks.
