At the typical interest rates of over 20%  per annum for borrowing in Nigeria , we wonder how the operations of a typical medical institution will lend itself to these products. Also with the reputation of our banking sector, it is impossible to say if this innovation in our banking sector is a good thing for our health sector or the beginning of the monster that has consumed many others.
