Nigeria's First Indigenous Female Neurosurgeon, Dr. Salamat Ahuoiza Aliu

Dr. Salamat Ahuoiza Aliu (b. 1980) is the first indigenously trained female neurosurgeon in Nigeria and also the first female to be certified a neurosurgeon in West Africa. Born in Ilorin, Kwara State, where she had most of her education up to the university level, she found the area of neurosurgery interesting and intriguing, and then decided to specialize in the discipline.

Neurosurgeons are not just brain surgeons, they are medically trained neurosurgical specialists who can also help patients suffering from back and neck pain as well as a host of other illnesses ranging from trigeminal neuralgia to head injury and Parkinson’s disease.

An Ebira woman from Okene Local Government in Kogi State, 37-year-old Salamat is happily married with two children and presently works at the National Hospital in Abuja.
