Our study from rural Northern Nigeria has shown a high level of maternal mortality with an estimated MMR of 1,271 (95% CI 1,152–1,445) maternal deaths per 100,000 live births.

Our products and services are local collection centres across low income communities that enables pregnant women and their infact to have quick access to medical care before and after birth, due to the fact that in most of the local community in the northern part of Nigeria mostly young or under age are the one's that undergo marriage and have pregnancy, We channel with those individuals using different means to give them awareness on the effect of lack of hospital visitation during and after pregnancy with the setting of community based development program (CBDP) which includes seminar and workshop to educate the parents, Guardian, youth, leaders and every individuals in the local community on the effect of underage marriage and the on important of female education in National development. Most of the rural communities we have visited have reach a level of awareness on important of visiting the clinics or hospital for proper medication and on the important of buying proper delivery kits for avoidance of different diseases that are encounter due to discordant use of proper materials.

With only 20% target of our beachhead market, we were able to reduce the rate of maternal mortality by 26,000 individuals in local communities and some urban areas in northern part of Nigeria.

Maternal mortality and morbidity in Nigeria have been a very rare medical case. Due most of the pregnant women lack quick access and are not well informed on health information and even now 65% of pregnant women in northern Nigeria still deliver their babies at home. So as a student I come up with ideas and solutions to connect those individuals with the nearest hospitals and to informed the pregnant women on health information because we believe when individuals are well informed about health information the will know the important of visiting the hospital before and after delivery. 

We like to partner will MIT solve members, UN and WHO for us to also contribute positively to our country and the globe at large.
