Kaduna State Governor Uba Sani signs a law establishing the Kaduna State College of Post-Basic Nursing Sciences in Rigasa, Igabi Local Government Area. The move is intended to train specialist nurses and respond to shortages in nursing professionals.
According to outlets, the college will offer post-basic training in areas such as midwifery, paediatric care, emergency medicine and other specialties. The state presents the institution as a step toward improving health services by building capacity for higher-level nursing skills. While coverage focuses on the signing of the bill and the location of the college, the shared emphasis across reports is on addressing gaps in specialist nursing staffing and expanding training opportunities for additional roles within the healthcare system.
