Did you know the life expectancy of the average Nigerian is only 53 years and 2 months? A statistic that puts Nigeria well behind global and regional figures. Can you imagine that 9 out of every 10 deaths in Nigeria occur from causes that are completely preventable?

Each week their physician expert moderator, Dr. Toju Chike-Obi, facilitates an in-depth discussion of a particular medical condition with a guest specialist, and also samples perspectives and myths from their wildly popular “Man on the Street Segment”.
The HealthZone will premiere on Channels TV, on Thursday 2nd April 2015 at 3:30PM.
