In a post on TikTok, Delight said hospitals in Nigeria don’t pay nurses well. She said many of the hospitals would instead employ auxiliary nurses and pay them a pittance.

Delight noted that practising nursing in Nigeria was not for the fainthearted, considering the small salary.

Others who saw her story shared their own experiences and the income they earned as registered nurses in Nigeria.
