The problem

90% of Nigerians have no health insurance.

Formal insurance is built for the formally employed. But 80% of Nigeria's workforce is informal — drivers, traders, artisans, gig workers. When a medical bill comes, they pay out-of-pocket or they don't get treatment. NoWahala is for them.

9.5%

Of Nigerians with any insurance

90 out of every 100 Nigerians have zero health insurance coverage. When someone gets sick, families pay the full cost themselves.

76%

Of healthcare spending is out-of-pocket

Three out of every four naira spent on healthcare in Nigeria comes directly from the patient’s pocket. The poorest pay the highest share of income.

₦150K

Average emergency medical cost

A single hospitalisation can wipe out a family’s savings. Many Nigerians delay treatment because they simply cannot afford it.
