Nigeria’s mental health bill opportunity to mainstream mental health into health, society ― Expert

A mental health expert, Dr Olusola Attoe, says that Nigeria’s Mental Health Bill, recently signed into law to replace the outdated Lunacy Act of 1958, offers opportunities for the country to mainstream mental health into the general health and society.

Dr Attoe spoke at the January 2023 edition of the Interactive Monthly Community Engagement (IMCE) series of the Asido Foundation and announced the winners of the 3rd Miss Jemila Abubakar Memorial Essay (JAME) competition.
