Abstract

Life is sacred and as such, all human beings crave to utilise all available means to sustain living. This is one desire that is pitched against the reality of human life, which is attached to the health conditions of human organs. Organ transplantation therefore, is a potential solution to achieve replacement of damaged human organs. However, this opportunity is not fully available in Nigeria due to the several constraints and challenges involved in such transplants. This paper therefore examines the challenges affecting Nigerians who wish to have a better chance of a quality healthy life with new organs. It found that the challenges of organ transplantation such as the need for regulation, lack of public awareness, high cost of transplantation and inadequate facilities in hospitals are all factors that hinder an efficient process of organ transplantation. These factors thus need to be resolved in order to make progress.
