- Nurses and midwives can now submit verification requests
The Nursing and Midwifery Council of Nigeria has reopened the verification portal for nurses and midwives on its website.
Checks on the NMCN portal on Saturday, 14th of September , 2024 showed that nurses and midwives can now submit verification requests.
Message on the portal reads , “Good news, verification requests are back online.
“Please note that henceforth expiration dates on renewal applications will be calculated based on the date you applied.”
The sudden deactivation of the verification portal by the council in February plunged countless Nigerian nurses and midwives working abroad into turmoil.
Already, some nurses without the necessary verification from the NMCN find themselves in violation of visa conditions and employment laws, resulting in legal consequences.
