Nigerian Nurses In The UK Embroiled In Qualification Scandal by 4Play(m): 10:07am On Feb 14
NHS nurses being investigated for ‘industrial-scale’ qualifications fraud

Scam involves more than 700 healthcare workers who used proxies to pass test in Nigeria enabling them to work in the UK

Hundreds of frontline NHS staff are treating patients despite being under investigation for their part in an alleged “industrial-scale” qualifications fraud.

More than 700 nurses are caught up in a potential scandal, which a former head of the Royal College of Nursing said could put NHS patients at risk.

The scam allegedly involves proxies impersonating nurses and taking a key test in Nigeria, which must be passed for them to become registered and allowed to work in the UK.

It's not new in Nigeria. For instance clear and blatant Forgery has been proven to be legal in some exceptional cases which has been justified by the court.
They should ask the President and his aides.

Why is the test to qualify as a nurse in the UK conducted in Nigeria? Or why is the UK not in charge of the conduct like IELTS or ACCA.

The UK needs to tighten the exam process but I disagree that patience lives are at risk. Sitting and passing an exam doesn’t always reflect ability to do the job. I know people who speak fluent English who can’t pass IELTS.

A fool will always be a fool. That is why many fools will not ask themselves to know if the issue of NHS certificate scandal just started now or since early last year even before our president contested election. They accuse president of being a drug baron and yet they have the highest number of families in foreign prisons for drug trafficking some of whom have been executed in Asian countries

They v started again o!
Strong n tougher immigration laws looms. They can suspend hiring nurses from Nigeria since they aren't sure if the nurse is trained or not.
Oyinbo no too dey employ by sentiments. You must be proven & certified by recognized bodies!

The anger wey I dey carry look the FG dey vex me sotey I just dey vex for any werey man wey tamba with me!
