Nigerian Nurses Trapped by License Verification Suspension: Calls Mount for Immediate Action from NMC
Nigerian nurses, already burdened by overwork and poor remuneration, are now facing a new and alarming challengeābeing held professionally hostage by the Nursing and Midwifery Council of Nigeria (NMCN). The council has indefinitely suspended the verification of licenses, a mandatory process required for nurses seeking to migrate abroad for better opportunities. This move has sparked outrage across social media, with many calling on the NMCN to lift this restriction and allow nurses to pursue better working conditions outside Nigeria.
