TINUBU APPROVES A POLICY TO PREVENT NIGERIAN HEALTH WORKERS FROM LEAVING THE COUNTRY

The major issues affecting Nigeria’s health people resources are addressed by the National Policy on Health Workforce Migration.

This forward-thinking strategy amply demonstrates Mr.
President’s dedication to a strong and resilient healthcare system as the AU Champion for Human Resources for Health and Community Health Delivery Partnership.

This program is a comprehensive approach to regulate, harness, and reverse health worker migration; it is not only a reaction to the ongoing flight of healthcare workers.

The vision entails a flourishing labour force that receives sufficient assistance, just compensation, and optimal utilisation to fulfil the healthcare requirements of every Nigerian.

The minister stated that the Nigeria Human Health Resource Programme is essential to realising this goal because it establishes a structure for routine evaluations of working conditions and guarantees that healthcare professionals—particularly those in underserved and rural areas—get the credit and benefits they are due.
