He thanked the Nursing and Midwifery Council of Nigeria for organising the training, saying that the knowledge acquired would help the health workers embrace modern healthcare practices.

M-Liman commended the management of the nursing school and that of College of Health Sciences and Technology, Tsafe on their efforts to provide competent health personnel in the state.
