Vacancies at the National Obstetric Fistula Centre, Abakaliki (NOFIC)

---

The National Obstetric Fistula Centre, Abakaliki (NOFIC) was established in 2011 by the Federal Government of Nigeria as the first national health facility for the treatment, rehabilitation, research, reintegration of and training in obstetric fistula mainly and related reproductive health issues. Initially started in 2008 as the brain child of Her Excellency, Chief Mrs Josephine Nwuzor Elechi, the wife of the second Executive Governor of Ebonyi State, who built The Mother and Child Care Initiative (MCCI) Fistula Centre in Ebonyi State for the purpose of advancing maternal health through her pet project, The Mother and Child Care Initiative (MCCI) with the support of development partners and stakeholders in Ebonyi State.

The Centre expanded to treating patients from neighbouring states in the South East region and was hence upgraded to South East Fistula Centre, Abakaliki. This finally gave birth to our Centre as the first National Obstetric Fistula Centre in Nigeria in 2011. Currently the Centre has provided free treatment for over 2000 women from over twenty states of the federation (including Ebonyi, Abia, Anambra, Imo, Enugu, Edo, Rivers, Akwa Ibom, Cross River, Bayelsa, Delta, Kogi, kwara, Benue, Lagos, Ogun, Ekiti, Osun, Oyo, Ondo, Bauchi, Abuja) with genital fistula including free feeding, investigation, surgery, medications etc.
