Why we exist

Nigeria Is Facing a Silent Health Crisis

0

Nigerian adults aged 30–79 are estimated to be living with hypertension.

0

of those with hypertension have it controlled.

0

stroke patients in a major West African study were younger than 50.

0

of Nigerians are now living with diabetes and other chronic metabolic conditions.

Behind every statistic is a family, a career, a business and a future that can be disrupted by preventable illness.

Figures as supplied for this draft — full citations from WHO, the Federal Ministry of Health and peer-reviewed sources will be published on the Research & Data page before launch.

Why Prevention Matters →

Our approach

We Are Moving Healthcare Upstream

Late intervention

  • Symptoms
  • Hospitalisation
  • Stroke / kidney failure / complications
versus

Early intervention

  • Education
  • Screening
  • Risk identification
  • Lifestyle support
  • Appropriate referral

Many chronic diseases develop silently for years before a major medical crisis occurs. ABWI focuses on reaching people during that window — while prevention and early action can still make a major difference.

Our core programmes

What We Do

01

Preventive Health Education

Simple, practical health education designed to help Nigerians understand the everyday factors driving chronic disease and what they can do about them.

02

Community Health Screenings

Blood pressure, blood glucose, BMI and other basic health-risk assessments, accompanied by health education and appropriate referral.

03

Pharmacy Wellness Network

Working with community pharmacies as accessible centres for preventive-health information, screening, education and follow-up.

04

Workplace & Corporate Wellness

Preventive-health programmes designed for organisations seeking healthier employees, reduced preventable illness and stronger workforce productivity.

05

Age Backwards Community Campaigns

Large-scale public education and community interventions focused on prevention, healthier living and early detection.

06

Professional Education & Masterclasses

Training pharmacists and other frontline health professionals to strengthen preventive-health and lifestyle-support services.

The Age Backwards Book

A Preventive-Health Blueprint for Every Home

AGE BACKWARDS: A Practical Guide to Living Younger & Reversing Chronic Diseases translates complex health science into practical information ordinary people can understand and apply.

The book serves as a household health-education tool, a workplace wellness resource, a community health resource, and a tool used in ABWI campaigns and partnerships.

We are not simply distributing books. We are putting preventive-health knowledge into homes.
