Journey to remote Niger clinic, where doctors, drugs and even bandages lack


Niger (Niger) (AFP) – In Soulefeta, a village in the remote Aiir Mountains of northern Niger, health care comes in the form of an empty building manned by a nurse with no equipment and no drugs. It lies about seven kilometres from Iferouāne, where there is a bigger health centre — but in this mountainous part of the Sahara, those few kilometres are long and gruelling.
