Infighting amongst nurses
GNAN’S POSITION ON THE STRIKE THREAT ISSUED TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT BY THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF THE NIGERIAN NURSES AND MIDWIVES (NANNM).
 
The attention of our Association has been drawn to the news aired on the African Independence Television (AIT) on Tuesday the 2nd day of September, 2014 where it was reported that the National Association of Nigerian Nurses and Midwives (NANNM) through her secretary, Mr.Badmus Yusuf had issued a 7-day ultimatum to the Federal Government (FG) to implement what they called “UNIFIED/HARMONIZED SCHEME” of service for Nurses or otherwise Nurses will embark on strike.
 
We make haste to inform the FG and the general public that the said threat of strike does not represent the true and collective resolve of members of the Nursing profession in Nigeria. Mr. Badmus and his cohorts in the NANNM are speaking for themselves and not for Nigerian Nurses. Therefore, Nigerians and the FG should discountenance that empty and irresponsible threat. Graduate Nurses are not part of this unwarranted threat of strike.
 
The Graduate Nurses Association of Nigeria (GNAN) make bold to inform Nigerians that the so called “UNIFIED SCHEME” of service is anti-nursing and has never been endorsed or supported by the members of the profession as NANNM dubiously claims. What remains unarguably the collective demand of the members of the profession is the inclusion of the University Graduates of Nursing in the internship package of the healthcare delivery system of the Country and their proper placement in the Scheme of Service. We want the Public to know that in the healthcare delivery system of the Country, the fresh University Graduates of other healthcare Professions with exception to those of nursing proceed to do a one year internship service upon graduation to gain practical experience for effective and better patient’s management. For example the graduates of Medicine and Surgery, Pharmacy, Medical Laboratory Science, Medical Rehabilitation, Dentistry, Optometry and so on do participate in the internship scheme and are placed on Government salary structure during this one year period of intense Practical experiences aimed at blending and consolidating the theoretical knowledge they had acquired from the University with clinical practice. It is most unfortunate that the University Graduates of Nursing, a profession that is the first point of contact of the patient in any Hospital setting which equally dedicates and spends more time with the patient than any other profession in the healthcare system, is what is tactically removed from the internship scheme because of the perceived financial benefits of the scheme which some people in the NANNM think that the Graduate Nurse is not worthy to receive without minding the main intention of the scheme which is to blend theory with comprehensive clinical practice.
 
We equally want the public to know that the Graduate Nurses have remained calm and dedicated to their duties despite the gross injustice meted out to them by the Nigerian healthcare system. We have supported the Joint Health Sector Union (JOHESU) with all our vigour but it appears that other Professions in JOHESU are just using Nurses to solve their own problems without recourse to the injustice meted to the Graduate Nurses courtesy of the grand conspiracy and Hypocrisy of the NANNM. For example, after the National Youth service, the Graduates of other JOHESU members e.g. Pharmacy, Medical Laboratory Science, etc are placed on CONHESS 09(i.e. Grade Level 10) while their counterparts in Nursing are aberrantly placed on CONHESS 07(i.e.Grade Level 08).This is after they had benefited from the practical experience and financial packages of the internship scheme prior to their NYSC where they are placed on CONHESS 08,a level which is even higher than the CONHESS 07 which a Graduate Nurse is appointed to after the National Youth Service. That NANNM is in JOHESU and yet the most pressing issue in Nursing which is the review of the Scheme of Service of the Nursing Officer’s cadre to create internship post for graduates of Bachelor of Nursing Science degree and Nurse Consultants and their inclusion in the Scheme of Service of the Federation has never been mentioned in any JOHESU meeting has confirmed our previous proposition that NANNM is anti-nursing and all her activities are clandestine sinister plots aimed at running the profession of Nursing aground in Nigeria.
 
It also interests GNAN to inform Nigerians that in the year 1980 precisely on 24th April, 1980, the Industrial Arbitration Panel (IAP) made an award to the members of the Nursing Profession. The first term of the award grants that “Nursing is a Profession sui generis subject to no directions or control whatsoever by any profession so ever except in so far as it forms parts of an organic whole (1a) and that in the health care delivery service of the country the Nursing Profession is on a parity with the Profession of Pharmacy as is the case in Great Britain (1b)”.A federal Government official Gazette No.22 vol.68, 7th May, 1981 confirmed this award. It is very painful and unfortunate that since 34 years of existence of this award, NANNM has never deemed it necessary to compel the FG to honour the award it had gazzetted for more than three decades and the result is that instead of  being at par with a pharmacist, who wrote the same courses in JAMB like a Graduate Nurse, was admitted to the University with the same O’level requirement as a graduate Nurse, Spent 5 years in the University, the same number of years  a graduate Nurse spent and served in the same National Youth Service Corp(NYSC) as the graduate Nurse, the Nurse is placed at a paltry grade of CONHESS 07 while his counterpart in Pharmacy is placed on CONHESS 09. What an aberration and travesty of justice? Is it not hypocritical that NANNM has never threatened strike over this long-existent injustice?
 
Despite making it clear by the IAP award that Nursing is a profession sui generis, it surprises us that NANNM under the truth-twisting Mr Badmus Yusuf as National Secretary who also doubles as the secretary of  the JOHESU and the infamous Mr A.A. Adeneji, as the National President, cooked up the issue of Unified Scheme of service in a multi-cadre profession like Nursing to destabilize the gradually returning peace in the healthcare system of the country at this auspicious moment when normalcy is gradually returning to the system after the suspension of the protracted strike of the Nigerian Medical Association(NMA) which callously denied Nigerians their right to access qualitative healthcare services. Nursing is a multi-cadre profession that comprises of members with different qualifications. Some have only the professional qualifications (i.e.the RN or the RM), some have Bachelor of Nursing Science degree plus the RN and/ or the RM and others have advanced degrees in nursing such as Masters in Nursing and PhD in Nursing. Professors of Nursing are also in the profession and all are registrable by the Nursing and Midwifery Council of Nigeria (NMCN), the statutory regulatory body of the Nursing profession in the country. That Mr Yusuf tried unconvincingly to propagate the falsehood that apart from the professional qualifications of Nurses that all other qualifications such as degrees in Nursing (e.g. B.NSC,or BSc Nursing, M.Sc Nursing and PhD Nursing) are not registrable or recognized by  the NMCN is either a display of crass ignorance of what the IAP award means by the term that ‘Nursing is a profession sui generis’ or that he is deliberately trying to stand the truth on its head. We have departments of Nursing in many Universities in Nigeria and before any University can successfully run any programme in Nursing it must be accredited by the NMCN. How Yusuf and his cohorts manufactured the lies they circulated in the media that NMCN does not recognize or register any other qualifications in Nursing (e.g.the B.NSc,or BSc Nursing, M.Sc Nursing and PhD) except the RN or RM still stuns the imagination of GNAN.
 
It is imperative to emphasize that in the civil service of the federation, it is only the University graduates of a Profession that climbs the directorate cadre of that profession. This is not peculiar to the Nursing Profession but cuts across every other profession. In multi-cadre professions, it is only the University graduates that go beyond grade level 14 into the directorate cadre. Nursing is not the only multi-cadre profession in Nigeria .Pharmacy, Medical lab, Engineering, Optometry to mention but a few are all multi-cadre Professions that have members who are products of the University and those that are products of technical schools. None of the trade union of other health professions that are multi-cadres in the health care system has ever threatened strike for Unified Scheme of Service which entails a member without degree in the profession becoming the director of their profession except the shameless NANNM. People like Yusuf who do not know that professional qualifications of professional bodies (e.g. the NMCN) are only recognized for proficiency purposes (National Council on Establishment, NCE, 2014) and not as alternative or equivalent to degrees are dangerous to the system and should be watched closely lest they one day throw the entire civil service into circulus crisis because of their dangerous way of thinking.
 
The same NMCN that Mr. Yusuf insinuates does not recognize degrees in Nursing with the exception of the RN and RM wrote a memorandum to the National Council on Establishment (NCE) and the NCE deliberated on the memorandum and approved her position  in its 36th meeting held in Akure, Ondo State from 24th to 25th May 2012 that it is only a Registered Nurse(RN) with  first degree (B.Sc or B.NSc) in Nursing that is eligible for conversion into the Nursing Officer Cadre and consequently, Office of the Head of civil service of the federation issued a circular to that effect in a letter(Ref no: B.63279/S.15/471) dated 28th November,2012 addressed to the Honourable Minister of Health  vacating  a previous circular(CND100/S/6/vol.11/115) dated 1st December,2006 that then asserted that ‘any Nurse in the Nursing Assistant cadre who acquires additional qualification in any of the nursing related course(s) such as B.Sc Nursing, Public Health, Community Health and “Allied courses” shall be eligible for conversion to the Nursing officer cadre’. If the NMCN has no recognition for the degrees in Nursing as the Yusuf’s of this world want us to believe, why then did the council send  the memorandum to the NCE that it is only a Nurse with degree in Nursing that should be allowed to ascend to the directorate cadre of the profession?
 
The problem with Yusuf and his cohorts is that they still dwell in the 18th century. GNAN advises them that rather than dissipate their energy on this futile exercise they should join hands with GNAN and NMCN to continue to plead and work with the National University Commission (NUC) and the departments of Nursing in various Nigerian Universities to increase admission quotas for the category of Nurses with only the professional qualifications, the RN or the RM, so that those that are interested in pursuing academic upgrade in the University would have an easy opportunity to do so because the generic programmes of Nursing which NANNM is averse to have come to stay in this 21st century. GNAN’s vision and commitment remains to make every Nigerian Nurse a University Graduate of the profession.
 
Recently, on the 25th day of August, 2014, Mr Badmus Yusuf announced that JOHESU had fought and won that the University Graduates of Medical Laboratory science commence their internship programme at CONHESS 08 and enter the civil service at CONHESS 09 post NYSC in a letter with a Ref No. HQ/JOHESU/ADM/VOL.II/235. We are therefore compelled to ask about what JOHESU had said or done about the internship of Graduate Nurses or does it mean that the University Graduates of Nursing who are not included in the internship scheme and who are wrongly placed on CONHESS 07 post-NYSC are not part of JOHESU? Why has Yusuf who is also a Nurse never mentioned anything about Nursing Internship in JOHESU meetings but is very quick to issue strike ultimatum to the FG over unified scheme of service which is not in any way among the top needs of the profession? Why has Yusuf and NANNM never issued any threat of strike over the non-inclusion of Nurses in the internship scheme? Why have they kept mute on issue of  parity with the profession of Pharmacy as granted by the IAP award of 1980 and have suddenly found voice to propagate lies of ‘Unified Scheme of Service’ as the problem of the profession when it is not? That NANNM joined hand with JOHESU to win internship and proper placement of the University Graduates of Medical Laboratory Science without any recourse to that of the University Graduates of Nursing is a clear indication that NANNM does not work for the collective interest of the profession but serves the immediate selfish interests of a few elements within their clique who are hell bent on dragging the Profession backward? Enough is enough! This absurdity must stop!!
 
We find laughable the supporter of APC protest organized by NANNM yesterday at the Headquaters of the NMCN and their idiotic call for the removal of the registrar of the Council because decisions so far taken by the Board of Nursing and Midwifery Council does not support ‘Unified Scheme of Service’ but rather acknowledged that internship programme will enhance the professional performances of Nurses. Their biasness could not allow them to reason out that the Registrar is not the Board of the Council but only serves as the secretary to the board and that any decision taken by the board is not the decision of the Registrar. GNAN totally condemn the attempt of NANNM to attribute their self created woes to the Registrar of the Nursing and Midwifery council of Nigeria and sounds a very strong warning that any move by NANNM to plot the removal of the Registrar shall be vehemently resisted.
 
We call on all our members to be law abiding and committed to doing the works their employers have employed them to do, which is giving patients holistic care. GNAN is not part of the self-aggrandized, irresponsible and empty strike threat issued by the NANNM. Therefore no Graduate Nurse should proceed on strike should NANNM later call for strike over UNIFIED SCHEME of service. If anything is worth going on strike for by the Nigerian Nurses, it should be the Non-inclusion of the profession in the internship package of the healthcare delivery system of this country and the aberrant placement of University Graduates of Nursing on CONHESS 07 against the CONHESS 09 their other JOHESU counterparts are placed.
 
We have no fear that the Government of our dearest President, Dr Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, shall re-write this injustice meted out to the Nursing Profession since the matter of internship for Nurses and wrong placement of Graduate Nurses has been referred to the NCE for consideration. His Government is the only Government that has ever taken this giant stride to address the perennial injustice by allowing the matter to be heard on the floor of the NCE for the first time in the history of Nigerian Civil Service. With deepest sense of regard and responsibility we call on the FG to fast track the implementation of Internship package for Nurses as this will promote efficient and effective healthcare delivery and to equally catalyze the proper placement of graduate Nurses on CONHESS 09 as is applicable to the University Graduates of our sister professions in the health sector as this will foster a long lasting peace and harmony in the sector.

To those crying foul that a med doctor is heading NAFDAC. I hope you know that FDA, the US equivalent is also headed by a med doctor http://www.fda.gov/AboutFDA/CommissionersPage/default.htm. So for those crying for "international practice", there you have it

YourHealthlabs: Nigerian B.mls have been evaluated to be of US standard. Nigerian scientists pass the NCA and ASCP exams with ease to work as MLScientists in U.S and Canadian labs.

Nigerian M.bbs is NOT an International standard. MD is d real deal.

U.S and U.K hospital DO NOT employ Nigerian docs instantly. They are made to write USMLE which is very highly competitive for non-US and non-Canadian trained docs and chances are very slim for these foreign-trained physicians in the U.S.

Stop misleading people.


We've settle this issue in my previous posts on a different thread.

please get it right. Mbbs is an international degree. It's awarded in British colonized countries. dm is for US n few countries please. Oh, and what makes u think Nigerian docs don't pass other countries licensing exams with ease
