The Morning After

Description

The Morning After: A Guide for Media Reporting and Prevention of Suicide in Nigeria is an insightful book on how to handle a major mental health problem hardly discussed in Nigeria—suicide. With chilling statistics and anecdotal references, Olufemi Oluwatayo and Martins Ifijeh reveal that there is an urgent need for sensitivity in the way suicides are reported in Nigeria, and they proffer solutions on how to prevent this silent public health challenge. The Morning After is a major work that should provoke a serious conversation on why many Nigerians are now taking their own lives.
