Who Is Most Likely to Experience Corruption When Seeking Health Care in Nigerian Healthcare Facilities?
Health sector corruption, in its various forms, is frequently reported in both northern and southern Nigeria.

To combat corrupt practices in both health sectors, anti-corruption initiatives must be tailored to particular groups and settings, addressing specific disadvantages at individual and community levels.
