Here is an essay competition for all medical students in Nigeria, proudly sponsored by the OCI (Onyebuchi Chris Ifediora) Foundation, and is being delivered in conjunction with the Nigerian Medical Students Association (NiMSA). NiMSA is the body of all medical students in Nigeria.

The OCI Foundation is an international (Nigerian-Australian) NGO, whose founder is a medical practitioner that has excelled largely due to his literary skills. This essay competition is his way of inspiring upcoming medical students to acquire similar medical skills.
