What are emergency services like in Nigeria?
When we asked members about emergency services in Nigeria, they wrote...
"Emergency services in Nigeria are limited and vary in quality depending on the region. Generally, the most reliable way to call for an ambulance is to contact the local police station or fire station. In some areas, there are private ambulance services that can be contacted directly. In addition, some hospitals have their own ambulance services that can be contacted directly. In any case, it is important to provide as much information as possible, such as the exact location of the emergency, to ensure that the ambulance can arrive as quickly as possible," explained one expat living in Nigeria.
