 This research examined the coverage of corruption in the health sector in Nigeria's leading newspapers from 2016 to 2018. The findings showed that the Punch newspaper had the highest number of publications focusing on corruption in the health sector. The National Health Insurance Scheme, NHIS, was the organization attracting most coverage followed by the Federal Ministry of Health. Corruption in the health sector was mostly framed as a political issue, with episodic coverage focused on the details of the particular case and little thematic analysis. Enforcement was the most frequently proposed solution. The study concluded that the media could play a role in tackling corruption in the health sector by shaping the narrative around it.
