Overview
At The Olive Prime, we’re on a mission to change the way mental health is seen, talked about, and treated in Nigeria. We kicked things off over five years ago as the first private outpatient-only mental health service in the country, at a time when most people were still whispering about mental health. Fast forward to today, and we’ve grown into a full-blown mental wellness brand with an inpatient-centric centre, a 15+ bed capacity, and a growing presence across Nigeria.
