The Problem: A Failing Healthcare Foundation
Millions of Nigerians face a fractured primary healthcare system, leading them to delay essential treatment due to high costs, distrust, or long travel distances. Instead of receiving quality preventive care, many rely on informal providers, resulting in late-stage detection of chronic, childhood, and maternal illnesses. This critical gap isn't a failure of individual hospitals, but a systemic breakdown of the foundational healthcare network.
The Reality: Unsupported Infrastructure and Workers
While thousands of clinics exist, they remain poorly supported, data is fragmented, and health workers face tough conditions. This leaves the entire referral system broken and public trust deeply shaken. Okike exists to bridge this gap and rebuild the country's healthcare foundation from the ground up.
What We Are Building
We are developing Nigeria’s first Primary Healthcare Ecosystem Platform, a national system that strengthens and connects:
