“…This figure is expected to increase to over two billion in 2025 (Atibila et al, 2018, Atibila, Ten Hoor, et al, 2021; Konlan, Pwavra, et al, 2022; Nyaaba et al, 2018). In sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA), hypertension is now at epidemic levels and results in major complications which burden the under‐resourced healthcare system (Atibila, Hoor, et al, 2021; Aziato et al, 2021; de Oliveira‐Filho et al, 2014; Konlan, Afam‐adjei, et al, 2020; Konlan, Armah‐mensah, et al, 2020; Nyaaba et al, 2018).
