If your a Nurse in the MSS(Midwives service scheme), u'll agree with me that a workshop was held for you this month between march 14th-18th nationwide in all the states, !
this workshop was meant to bring all nurses and midwives under this scheme up-to-date with current practices in PPH and other areas of healthcare relevant to ensuring a reduction in maternal and child mortalities and morbidities @ the grassroot.!
However, what happened in the conference hall of ministry of health Lafia, Nasarawa State was a Gross abuse of the good intentions of government by persons who don't care about healthcare, but only about their pockets and how much money they can make from these hard working midwives and nurses sweating it out @ the grassroots.
The required topics to be covered wasn't covered among plenty other irregularities, on the final day after the workshop was over these midwives and nurses were forced to sign on paper that they received N20,000.00 but they ended up being paid N12,000.00 each, !
This is so painfull, because anytime a well meaning programme aimed at the ordinary nigerian is set in motion, these hungry Buffalos must do evrytin possible to sabottage it.
Please other midwives and nurses share your experiences at your various centers and what is the way forward for us to achieve transparency in a sector as important as our healthcare delivery system.`
