In 2015, self-mediation caused about 15% of deaths. In sub-Saharan Africa, using Nigeria as a case study, over half of the total population lives under the poverty line and is the major contributor to the usage of self-medication. In other words, one of the primary reasons why people self-medicate is a result of their inability to afford tests, and prescribed treatments from qualified medical professionals.

At Awabah Nigeria, we are bridging the gap and enabling low-income individuals to access quality healthcare for as low as 1000 NGN (Nigerian Naira) with our ESS Package.

ESS is the abridged name for Enterprise Support Solution, a product borne out of the need to provide an improved lifestyle with access to services that a particular group of people (members of Nigeria’s informal sector) do not have access to.

Entrepreneurs, Laborers, Factory workers, Domestic workers, What do these people have in common?
This group of people works for years with little or nothing to show. They have to spend their wages each time they fall sick or are involved in an accident. Some others beckon on their employers for financial support in cases of emergencies.

The enterprise support solution changes all of that;
- After filling out the form, prospective clients are to make payments for the package they are interested in (Prices range from 700–1500).
- Account activation takes less than 3 hours
- After successful activation, they can start using the service immediately.

As an employer, if you have workers you are scared of losing this is a way of giving them a thousand reasons to work and stick with you. As an employer, you have dedicated workers and you would like to pay them for their hard work, this is it.
It takes a bad boss to not want to give value to his/her workers.
