Synopsis Pink, an HIV case manager in Nigeria with over 300 clients, shared the challenges of providing HIV care in Nigeria including funding shortfalls, client denial, religious barriers, and medication adherence issues. Despite resigning due to inadequate compensation, Pink continues helping clients voluntarily, motivated by losing a friend to HIV.
