with 10-20k you should be able to do a check up whether in a private or public health facility.

A medical check-up,that includes necessary tests will set you back between ₦60k-₦70k(because proper medical check-up will include investigations for heart,liver and kidney functions with sugar and blood level tests)
The person saying btw 10k-20k probably only thinks by medical check-up means you opening a hospital card and the doctor examining you(consultation fee) and probably running their usual malaria& typhoid which by the way are not actually standard tests during a medical check-up.

I do proper medical check-up yearly and will recommend it for nigerians to be doing it.

It is between 30-45k depending on hospital and location.

It is a standard offshore requirement for us and there are accredited hospitals we must use after which we are issued medical certificate.
They will do virtually all test including x-ray and EGC.
It is good to carry out this test because they detect early medical problems.
In 2017, they detected that i had too much fat in my heart through the EGC printout and recommended regular exercises and gym to me which improved in the 2019 reading.
If i wasn't doing these tests, probably would have slumped one day and people will term it as village people.

In 2020, i detected glaucoma also which have been using the eye drop. Imaging not carrying out these tests, i would have gone blind one day and it would be termed village people.

This is more like it. Many Nigerians can afford 10 to 20 thousand Nigeria. Medical checkups still aren’t ubiquitous, meaning the procedure is more expensive.

Glaucoma is hereditary most times but the fat in the heart is due to once’s diet and lack of exercise

I have someone that's totally blind now because of it. It's hereditary; his father had it before his death. Sadly, people don't like going to the clinic but can go to church or mosque for days to pray for miracle or whatever they call it.

Well, I don't pity anybody that ends up battling with any health issues after series of advise to visit the clinic.

Don’t blame them bro. Poverty is a real big disease here.

Most people are struggling to live so wasting extra money on Medicals looks stupid to them.
There are things people need to be doing but because of poverty and too many kids, they don’t.

Even insurance like NHIS and education insurance for kids are normal things parents need to do but poverty is too much.

You can’t blame stupidity on poverty. People with no means to feed should not bear more than one child if any at all.
One can say the cost is too high, but twenty thousand Naira for a basic checkup is affordable for the lowest salary earner.

The same way some people deep in poverty find ways to share meals is the same way anybody with an iota of commonsense should test their health.

Brother, poverty shouldn't be a reason they should become stupid. There's no excuse for foolishness. Why would two struggling adults come together to marry? Why would they breed like rodents when they know there's no finance?

At the end of the day, the kids will become menace to the society or whenever health challenges struck, they start running helter skelter.

So, no, I don't pity them. Read through many threads on here and see how young and struggling men are littering the forum with questions about if they should marry now all because of age. Imagine a 27-30 year-old struggling guy having marriage on his mind instead of focusing on financial stability.

Most people are the cause of their misfortune. If you're from a poor background, ensure you strive to break out, so as to make life easier for the future generations you are bringing in. In fact, the rich and the elites don't breed like rodents.

Will you say 110k is outrageous? X-ray not included and I doubt they'd be doing eye test. I think it's just blood , heart etc test
