Nigerian Nurses Groan Over The Continuous Closure of Verification Portal

 Hundreds of Nigerian nurses are stranded following the Nursing and Midwifery Council of Nigeria, NMCN, continuous closure of its portal for verification of nurses’ certificates.

It was gathered that while many nurses are currently stranded in different countries abroad, others are on the verge of being deported.

Nursing boards in the US, Canada, New Zealand, Australia, and the UK are said to have stopped accepting nursing certificates from Nigerian nurses because they cannot verify their authenticity.

Reports revealed that the National Assembly had twice urged the NMCN to open its site and commence verification of Nurses and Midwives based on its former guidelines pending the conclusion of an investigation by the House Committee on Health Institutions but the council is yet to heed the resolution of the House.

However, when Inspiration FM News reached out to the Caretaker Committee Chairman of National Association of Nigerian Nurses and Midwives (NANNM) in Akwa Ibom State, Comrade UDUAK NDEM, it was stated that the relevant authorities are deliberating on the matter.

MAN Appeals to Central Bank of Nigeria to Reduce Interest Rates

The Manufacturers Association of Nigeria (MAN) has appealed to the Central Bank of Nigeria – CBN to reduce interest rates to save the country’s manufacturing sector.

The outgoing Chairperson of MAN in Kwara/Kogi States, BIOKU RAHMAN, made the appeal at the association’s 10th Annual General Meeting (AGM) in Ilorin, the Kwara State capital.

Mr RAHMAN said the CBN needs to direct commercial banks to reduce interest rates on industrial loans. He also urged the Bank of Industry (BOI) to roll out further reductions in its lending rates to industries.

The outgoing MAN Boss urged the CBN to widen the window of foreign exchange to local industries while urging the federal government to harmonise taxes and levies at the federal, state and local government levels.
