The main causes are uncontrolled high blood pressure (affecting 38% of Nigerians), diabetes, a genetic variant (APOL1) common in West Africans, medication abuse (especially NSAIDs), unregulated herbs, mercury in bleaching creams, and counterfeit drugs—most manageable through regular blood pressure checks, kidney function tests, and avoiding medication abuse.Aug 15, 202621 tweets♥ 4.3K
