Body hair is natural, and it plays an important role in protecting the skin, reducing friction, and helping regulate body temperature.
But just like every other part of the body, it needs proper care and hygiene too. Keeping body hair clean can help prevent odour, irritation, and the build-up of sweat and bacteria.

Maternal health is everyone’s responsibility, because behind every safe birth is a system that either worked or failed a woman.
Today, we’re reminiscing on an insightful conversation with @Iyadunnio1, Nigeria and Kenya Director at MSD for Mothers, on closing Nigeria’s maternal health gap and what real progress must look like.

The Nigeria Health Watch team, led by our Managing Director, @VIhekweazu, had the pleasure of meeting @UNFPA Representative @muriel_mafico, and the team at their Abuja office.
It was a great opportunity to reintroduce Nigeria Health Watch’s advocacy and communications work and discuss our role as an implementing partner to @UNFPANigeria. Our conversation focused on how we can continue to work together to advance UNFPA’s priorities in sexual and reproductive health and rights, gender-based violence, maternal health, adolescent health, and the demographic dividend.
We also shared Nigeria Health Watch’s strengths in strategic advocacy, policy engagement, multi-platform communications, and subnational engagement, and how these capabilities can help amplify the impact of UNFPA’s programmes.

Here’s what the data is telling us 🧵👇
"They say death came.
No.
It was sent for.... "
In this poem, Dr Ebere Okereke reflects on lives lost not by chance, but through layers of neglect, weak systems, and the quiet normalisation of avoidable deaths in Nigeria's health care system.
