Fourteen were fully developed but not appropriately scaled-up across the country, hence, denying neonates proper access to these interventions.Conclusion -Nigeria may already have the required game-changing ideas to strategically scale up across the nation to accelerate neonatal survival. Therefore, the LMIC healthcare systems may have to look inwards to strengthen what they already possess.
