Abstract
This study examines the role of Traditional Birth Attendants (TBAs) in the delivery of maternal health services, using General Hospital Ilorin, Kwara State, as a primary case study. Despite the advancement of modern obstetrics, TBAs remain significant stakeholders in maternal care within Nigerian communities due to cultural preferences, accessibility, and perceived affordability.
