 And a fewer than eight nurses in the country have dragged the Nursing and Midway Free Council of Nigeria, NMCN, and the Minister of Health, to the National Industrial Court, Abuja, over a new secular, stipulating new certificate verification guidelines for nurses. The Council stated that applicants seeking verification of certificates from foreign nursing boards and councils must possess two years of post-qualification experience from the date of issuance of the permanent practicing license. This means they must work in the country for at least two years before seeking greener pastures abroad. The new guidelines came into force on March 1st. Mythed by these, nurses in Abuja and Lagos protested, demanding the reversal of the new guidelines. The judge ordered that hearing nurses be saffled on the Ministry of Health and the Attorney General of the Federation, who had no legal representation in court. We received an application on Second Defendant, which is the Midway Free Council, in court this money was served with that application this money. And then we also received other applications from the Minister of Health and the Ministry. We told the court, I want to look at those applications because we have been served with those applications in court. It's policy in itself is flawed and that is the reason why we have challenged that policy in court and we strongly believe that we are going to get justice in the court because that law in itself is flawed. It is an infringement on fundamental human rights of fellow professionals and of course it is also not only stopping nurses from seeking job employment outside the country but those who are also seeking knowledge are also affected and this is not right in our side.
