[Nigeria Health Watch] In the dead of night in 2014, panic spread through Irono, a small community in Ekiti State, reliant on the services of a single Primary Healthcare Centre (PHC). After a mother had just given birth at the PHC, an intruder attempted to steal a newborn. The baby's sharp cries drew nurses and community members to intervene quickly. Although the child was saved, the damage was done, and the incident significantly affected the community's trust in the facility.
