The sudden increase in the verification fees is uncalled for. There are many changes that the Nursing and Midwifery council of Nigeria should have made over a decade ago but they are sluggish and reluctant. Why then will they want to create more hardship for nurses by increasing fees every here and there.
Below are things nurses would expect their council to resolve;
They have refused to upgrade school of nursing to colleges affilated to a university.
They have refused to create a Nursing assistant cadre that can serve to eradicate quackery in nursing
They have refused to upgrade the curriculum of nursing in the university for creation of consultancy cadre.
They have refused to create a means by which licenses are produced faster than the current long awaiting period.
They have refused to look into the scam of MCPDP and the cost on nurses.
We cannot allow this heinous increment not even at this time that minimum wage has become a problem in all states of the federation. It is high time we wake up in this profession and challenge insensitive leadership from all angles.
