16,000 Nigerian Nurses Flee to UK in 2025, NANNM Reports

Mr Mamman stated that many nurses wished to stay and work in Nigeria, but push factors included poor remuneration, poor working conditions, kidnapping/insecurity, non-career progression and lack of job opportunities.

The NANNM president however, called on the government and other critical stakeholders to address all these issues while saluting hardworking nurses to keep doing their best.

He said the leadership of NANNM would continue to engage with governments and other relevant stakeholders regarding nurses’ and midwives’ welfare.
