dc.description.abstractHigh maternal mortality rates have persistently been a major challenge within Nigeria. This study focuses on the determinants of higher incidences of maternal deaths in the North, which records higher maternal deaths compared to the South. Data from the National Budget office, National Health Accounts, and the National Demographic Health Survey 2013 for healthcare services measured by (access to health facility, skilled birth attendant, use of contraceptives and antennal care) on the 36 states of the Federation including the FCT are disaggregated into the six geopolitical zones. The results showed support for the hypotheses that decreased funding for the health sector in the North compared to the South is responsible for the disparity in maternal mortality rates in the country. The implication of this study is that an increased effort to reduce this challenge largely requires the focus and commitment of political leaders on funding. A complementary source of funding known as Social Impact Bonds is discussed.;높은 산모 사망률은 나이지리아의 심각한 문제로 지속적으로 지적 되었다. 본 연구는 남부에 비해 높은 북부의 산모 사망률의 원인에 초점을 맞추고 있다. 국가 예산부처, 보건부의 자료 및 FCT를 포함한 36개의 연방주를 대상으로 시행된 2013 국립 인구 건강 조사 데이터는 (의료 시설, 숙련된 출산 도우미, 피임약의 사용, 출산 전 관리에 대한 접근) 여섯 개 지역으로 세분화 하였다. 남부에 비해 북부지역에서 보건 부문에 대한 자금이 급격히 감소된 것이 지역내의 산모 사망률의 차이를 설명하고 이는 본 연구의 가설을 증명하고 있다. 본 연구는 산모 사망률의 지역간 편차를 줄이기 위해서는 재정에 대한 정치 지도자의 약속과 노력을 필요함을 시사한다.-
