The IDF scorecard rated Nigeria\u2019s weakest area in diabetes management as financial support of diabetes services. The Scorecard also noted the non - universal nature of services for diagnosis, and lack of diabetes services for vulnerable population groups. The World Health Organization statistics indicate that Nigeria has the highest number of people living with diabetes in sub-Sahara Africa and has a relatively high diabetes related morbidity and mortality as most of those living with the condition cannot manage the financial burden of treatment regimes. <\/p>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-64886b4 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"64886b4\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-4289e40\" data-id=\"4289e40\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-227998b elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"227998b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<style>\/*! elementor - v3.15.0 - 20-08-2023 *\/\n.elementor-widget-text-editor.elementor-drop-cap-view-stacked .elementor-drop-cap{background-color:#69727d;color:#fff}.elementor-widget-text-editor.elementor-drop-cap-view-framed .elementor-drop-cap{color:#69727d;border:3px solid;background-color:transparent}.elementor-widget-text-editor:not(.elementor-drop-cap-view-default) .elementor-drop-cap{margin-top:8px}.elementor-widget-text-editor:not(.elementor-drop-cap-view-default) .elementor-drop-cap-letter{width:1em;height:1em}.elementor-widget-text-editor .elementor-drop-cap{float:left;text-align:center;line-height:1;font-size:50px}.elementor-widget-text-editor .elementor-drop-cap-letter{display:inline-block}<\/style>\t\t\t\t<p>The Diabetes Association of Nigeria (DAN) posited that Nigeria\u2019s top national diabetes priorities should include equitable, universal access to care, and the development\/ implementation of a National Diabetes program.
