The Provost of the College of Nursing Sciences, Birnin Kebbi, Mohammed Murtala Musa, has commended Governor Nasir Idris’s led administration for absorbing 761 Nurses and Midwives of the institution into the state civil service.
He gave the commendation on Friday while interacting with newsmen in Birnin Kebbi on the two years administration of Kauran Gwandu.
The provost recalled that the institution had graduated no fewer than 881 nurses and midwives in less than two years of the present administration, precisely, from May 2023 to date.
He said of the total number 761 were indigenes of Kebbi State who had successfully studied and completed their programs in the college to become certified nurses and midwives.
Musa said: “All these 761 nurses and midwives, who are indigenes of Kebbi State are now absorbed into the state civil service by the present Kauran Gwandu-led administration.
“This is a demonstration of interest in the development of the school, interest in the progress of the state, and indeed interest in the success of the entire health sector.”
The Provost attributed the success of the college to have graduated such a huge number to the support and cooperation the college was enjoying from the present administration in the state.
He noted that accreditation for Higher National Diploma (HND) programs in the college had been conducted, saying that the result was being awaited.
The Provost appreciates Governor Idris for supporting the college to produce the basic and middle healthcare needs of the state workforce.
