Mainstreaming Mental health in Nigeria

" It is true that health is wealth but there is no health without mental health." Mr. Adeoye, a nurse at the Yaba Psychiatric Hospital Lagos, kept saying those words while he was welcoming Nursing students who were posted to the Yaba Psychiatric Hospital Lagos on November 21st, 2022. He also went on to say that " ninety percent of the psychiatric cases in the hospital are as a result of the abuse of drugs" and this is because so many people (especially youths) tend to always find solace in drugs or other substances whenever they are emotionally troubled just as Tunde did in the " infertility and emotional wellbeing" story by Jibril Abdulmalik on October 27th, 2022 which was posted on the Asido Foundation Blog.
