The Leprosy Mission in Nigeria
Leprosy Mission in Nigeria
Nigeria is located in Western Africa on the Gulf of Guinea, and is one of the most populated countries in the world. With more than 250 ethnic groups, all with varying languages and customs, Nigeria has a rich ethnic diversity. Health and healthcare, along with general living conditions, are very poor in Nigeria; the average life expectancy is only 47 years for both males and females. In Zamfara over 70% of people live in poverty.
