 All right, welcome back. It's still the breakfast on PLOS TV Africa. We are moving on to the next conversation and on Thursday, May 12th, is the International Day for Nurses and indeed there's been a week-long activity to actually mark these particular professionals and to identify where their struggles get right and, of course, invest in that particular profession. We have a guest joining us to look at the essence of all of this. We have for a lot of Mottosho. He is the General Secretary Association of General Private Nursing Practitioners. Good morning to you, Dr. Mottosho. Thanks for joining us on the breakfast on PLOS TV Africa. Thank you very much, Ben. Yeah, thank you. So let's talk about the nurses. Indeed, on Thursday is the International Day for your professionals. Why has this particular day been put forward to ensure that, you know, nurses are remembered, really? Thank you very much, Joseph, for that question. Yes, today I'm going to do that. It actually marks the beginning of this year. And it's a time for us to remember the Morda, but not only Morda, but Morda gave it. So in the history of Morda, the nurses, the largest workforce in the area to do the system, they might be set aside to mark the gradual end of the year. All right, Dr. Mottosho, during the COVID-19 pandemic, in the wake of it all in the year 2020, you know, health care practitioners were the ones in the front burner. And a lot of things came to the fore, the issues of their right hazard allowance to send them, how far they usually go, you know, to just ensure that patients are well taken care of. But let's talk about nurses generally now in Nigeria. How would you really see a nurses' right have been protected? Is it done in the right way, really? Yes, thank you. Thank you very much. The Morda is a benefit to Morda. We'll talk about it later. Now, somebody has the right to do the duty of education. You have the right to live, the right to do the duty of education, the right to do the duty of education. Now, what's going to be the duty of the rights of Morda? Now, you may do the obligation of education. As far as I'm concerned, do you like to become better or less educated? To live, to be educated, to be educated, to be educated, not being educated upon. How is that? The issue of life, when it comes to life, when it comes to being given your life, what you are trying to do, by living or what you are doing or who you are, what you are doing, in the health care industry has been compromised. That until now has not been in the health care industry, like now, they have not been ready to give them money. That they have nothing to do with what they are expected to be given. Okay, so let's pro-further and ask Eve there, because of course the nursing week talks about protection of the right of nurses and the question here is, do you think that their policies put in place by government to protect the right of nurses? That's in order to ensure that the conventional nursing they have not had the technique, the policy that has been passed by the people of nursing adequately has front line in the national industry in Nigeria. So, but how do we then, that's also another issue. Now, I remember in 2021, to be precise, you had the medical association, never saying that they had lost over 4,000 nurses in cross river state and this brain drain continues. So, what do you think can be done and what's been done to cop all of this because it would definitely render the sector useless. Exactly. Now, why talk about brain drain? Now, how do we now take, that is the solution of our one, policy should be put in place at the end of the day, when they go out, when they go out, when they go out to go out to go out look for, in Nigeria, is it the strategy for them to come in at the same time? When you come in, that is conducive. When you, when this is open, it should always be at the same time, that's when they have to take me for practice. They will skip, but in this situation, we are, you know, in the U.S. community, in the country that I see, they are not going to be able to come in and do the work anyway. They are not going to be able to do them. They are just going to be compensated. I'm not going to be able to do that to the people. So, please stay. All right, Dr. Montageau, let's look at some of other issues in this particular profession. You will agree with me that nursing is a noble one. Some people might even say it is a calling and not just a profession, but let's understand something about them, how it's really done, about nurses and the profession in Nigeria. I know we have registered nurses, we have a nursing or nursing aid or nurses aid. We have mental nurses who work with mental homes and all of that, and those who also work in home spaces. But how far can a nurse really go in terms of unpractice, because we've gotten to see an extent where nurses are actually playing pharmacists and doctors as well. The health care system is a thing that we need to do in the U.S. Unless, for the first time in the U.S., the nurse doesn't have his own role to play. The doctor has his own. The pharmacist has his own. The lab scientist has his own. Now, which one, as a player in the health care industry, has a conventional need of nursing, particularly that one. Now, we lost the anxiety by the reason of the story, but the book, the book what you see, why do you see it. So, he's entitled and all of the education to trust me according to what we are doing. And now, we have gone and gone to the U.S. to see what the profession is. Now, not just that, it's gone to the U.S. The U.S. profession has a dentistry. They are mostly in various facilities. Even in the profession of emergency, in terms of technology, in those circumstances. And every other thing, and I said the other day, we've been not going to join the state of the U.S. in 15 years. We are now in the U.S., and then all these are doing, they are doing, they are improving their quality. We are improving their quality. So, nursing is a nice way to trust them, to think of what we are doing. All right. We must say a very big thank you to you, Dr. Folao Montosho, general secretary of your group. And we wish you all the best as you celebrated the nurse's weekend. Of course, all the right and all the issues that we've talked about, we wish we trust that and they'll be looked into by the government and, of course, all relevant stakeholders. Once again, thank you for your time this morning. Is it a pleasure to be with you? All right. Well, we must say a very big thank you to all of you who have sat back to watch the show.
