The highest number came from the Niger Republic with 148 candidates, followed by Cameroon (79), Ghana (55), India (24), the Philippines (14), Cyprus (12), Sudan (10), Turkey (9), Egypt (5), and Iran (4). Additionally, there was one candidate each from China, Georgia, Kenya, Liberia, and Uganda.

The adaptation programmes were completed at Bayero University Kano, the University of Ilorin, Usmanu Danfodiyo University Sokoto, the University of Port Harcourt, and the University of Ibadan.

Ndagi urged the new nurses to be worthy ambassadors of the profession by upholding the core values of humility, discipline, and respect in their interactions with patients and the public. He advised them to provide compassionate, ethical, and patient-centred care while remaining within their professional scope.

He further encouraged the inductees to pursue continuous learning and seek opportunities for professional growth, including advanced degrees, to progress in their careers.

Also speaking at the event, Dr Ganiyu Oladokun, who represented the registrar of the Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria (MDCN), highlighted the importance of fostering collaboration among healthcare professionals.

He urged nurses to collaborate with doctors, medical laboratory scientists, pharmacists, and other allied health workers to improve the quality and efficiency of healthcare delivery in Nigeria.

Dr Oladokun reiterated MDCN’s commitment to strengthening the country‘s regulatory framework for medical practice. He stated that effective regulation is key to ensuring patient safety and maintaining public trust in the health system.

He commended the foreign-trained professionals who completed their adaptation programmes and advised them to align with Nigeria’s healthcare standards and embrace their ethical responsibilities.

„The patient must always be at the centre of all clinical decisions and practices,“ he concluded.
