We observed that the estimate for maternal deaths in the 2018 Nigeria Demographic Health Survey differs from this report: Trends in Maternal Mortality 2000 to 2017.

The 2018 NDHS states that one in 34 women in Nigeria will have a death related to maternal causes, while the Trends report states that it is one in 21.

Why do the two reports differ so much, please?
