<p>A significant number of nurses, particularly younger professionals, are expressing their intention to withdraw from the National Association of Nigeria Nurses and Midwives (NANNM) due to perceived failures in leadership at the state level. Many nurses and midwives have voiced their frustrations regarding the union&#8217;s inability to advocate effectively for their welfare, leading to widespread discontent within the healthcare community.</p><div class="XcXnj9T7" style="clear:both;float:left;width:100%;margin:0 0 20px 0;"><script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>

<p>The primary concerns driving this potential breakaway include:</p>
<p>1. Ineffective Representation: Nurses are increasingly worried about the union&#8217;s failure to address critical issues such as the implementation of hazard allowances, upgrading CONHESS to 100%, timely promotions, inadequate salaries, poor working conditions, and improper placement of graduate nurses upon employment. Additionally, there have been delays in approving changes in cadre for registered nurses to officer status, as well as a review of allowances for NYSC graduate nurses.</p>
<p>2. Insufficient Advocacy for Nurses&#8217; Rights: There is a growing sentiment among nurses that their rights are not being adequately represented. Many face workplace challenges and instances of abuse without the support of a strong advocacy system to negotiate fair treatment and justice.</p>

<p>3. Lack of Transparency: Concerns have been raised about the financial governance of the union, particularly regarding monthly rebates and overall financial activities. Nurses are calling for a detailed financial report to ensure transparency in how union funds are managed.</p>

<p>Additional issues contributing to the unrest include low morale, stagnation of professional growth, and a general loss of trust in union leadership.</p>
<p>Young nurses in Kano State are demanding immediate action to address these pressing concerns. If these issues remain unresolved, they may feel compelled to sever ties with the union altogether.</p>
<p>&#8220;We urge the management and leadership of NANNM to take these concerns seriously and engage with the necessary authorities to improve the welfare of nurses in our state,&#8221; said a representative of the concerned nurses. &#8220;Failure to act promptly may leave us with no choice but to pursue separation from the union.&#8221;</p>
<p>The situation remains fluid as nurses await a response from union leadership regarding their demands.</p>
<p>One of the nurses who pleaded anonymity released their stand to news men in Kano.</p>
