Nurses under the auspices of the University Graduates of Nursing Science Association (UGONSA) have identified critical loopholes in the proposed 2026 Healthcare Regulatory Bill and have formally engaged the leadership of the National Assembly to demand urgent legislative review. This engagement was conveyed through a comprehensive memorandum, Ref No. UG/NAT/26/NIG/NASS/01 dated April 08, 2026,
addressed to the President of the Nigerian Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives, with copies forwarded to the Chairmen of the Senate and House Committees on Health. Below is the details of the memo:

Your Excellency, Sir,
Re:
Legislative Review and Proposed Amendments – 2026 Healthcare Regulatory Bills
We respectfully submit this memorandum highlighting critical provisions in the 2026 Healthcare Regulatory Bills that may undermine professional autonomy, encourage quackery, and disrupt interdisciplinary healthcare governance in the Nigerian health system. While these Bills aim to modernize healthcare regulation, certain provisions, especially within the Nursing and Midwifery Council of Nigeria (NMCN) and the Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria (MDCN) frameworks, pose significant risks to professional autonomy, equity, and interdisciplinary collaboration in Nigeria’s healthcare system. A detailed review of the Bill confirms that, unlike the Pharmacy Council of Nigeria (PCN) Bill, the NMCN Bill fails to explicitly require that the Chairman be a registered Nurse or Midwife. This omission creates a legal loophole that could allow non-nursing professionals or external appointees to lead the NMCN, a highly specialized professional regulatory body. Again, unlike the Medical and Dental Practitioners Bill , 2026 (MDCN), the NMCN Bill does not contain any explicit provisions addressing quackery, unlawful practice, impersonation, or institutional liability. This omission significantly weakens the regulatory authority of the NMCN and exposes the nursing and midwifery profession, and by extension, public safety, to grave risks. The Nursing and Midwifery Council of Nigeria Bill also prioritizes reducing Council size without safeguarding proportional and sectoral representation. Unlike the Pharmacy Council of Nigeria Bill and Medical and Dental Practitioners Bill, it risks excluding critical voices from clinical, academic, and regulatory sectors. This weakens policy quality, reduces professional influence, and exposes governance to dominance by narrow or external interests.
Section
4(1) of the National Hospital for Women and Obstetric Fistula (Establishment)
Bill, 2026, which sets out the composition of the Management Board of the
Hospitals, equally raises a serious concern regarding equity in professional
representation. As presently framed, the Board includes a part-time Chairman,
the Medical Directors of the hospitals (who are all Medical Doctors), the
Federal Chief Nursing Officer, one representative of the medical profession,
one representative of other health professions, and two persons representing
community interests. This arrangement creates a clear structural imbalance by
allocating multiple seats to the medical profession, while all other health
professions are compressed into a single shared seat. Such a composition is
neither equitable nor reflective of the multidisciplinary nature of fistula
prevention, treatment, rehabilitation, and long-term care. Effective management
of women’s health and obstetric fistula requires meaningful input from nursing,
pharmacy, physiotherapy, laboratory science, counselling, social work, and
other allied professions. Concentrating representation in favour of one
profession undermines inclusive governance, weakens interdisciplinary
collaboration, and risks marginalizing key contributors to patient care. Because
Board decisions are determined by majority, this imbalance could translate into
institutional dominance by one profession, to the detriment of balanced policy
development and holistic service delivery. The Bill should therefore be amended
to ensure separate and adequate representation for major healthcare
professions, including explicit inclusion of Heads of Nursing Services of the Hospitals
in the Boards. This will promote fairness, strengthen governance, and improve
patient outcomes through broader professional participation in decision-making.
The Bill as currently drafted
also appears to confer expansive and exclusive regulatory powers on the MDCN over
areas that are legally and professionally governed by other statutory bodies.
Some provisions, particularly those assigning authority “to the exclusion of
any other person or body”, risk creating institutional monopoly, suppressing
interdisciplinary collaboration, and undermining existing regulatory
frameworks. Healthcare delivery is inherently multidisciplinary. No single
profession should dominate or regulate others. Doing so not only violates
principles of professional autonomy and fairness but weakens the entire health system.
Nigeria already operates a well-established structure of professional regulation,
including, the Nursing and Midwifery Council of Nigeria (NMCN), Pharmacy
Council of Nigeria (PCN), Medical Laboratory Science Council of Nigeria (MLSCN),
among others. Allowing one profession to assume control over others would create
legal conflicts between Acts of Parliament, undermine professional development,
reduce morale among healthcare workers and negatively impact patient outcomes.
We are therefore calling for the removal of monopoly clauses, protection of
jurisdiction of existing regulatory councils, establishment of
interprofessional regulatory frameworks and inclusion of all core healthcare
professions in governance structures. Nigeria’s healthcare system can only grow
to world-class standard when it is driven by collaboration, mutual respect, and
shared responsibility rather than subjugation and professional domination.
Issue
Overview
The Nursing and Midwifery Council Bill (NMCN),
2026 does not specify that the Chairman must be a Nurse or Midwife, unlike the
Pharmacy Council Bill which clearly restricts leadership to pharmacists. The
Nursing and Midwifery Council of Nigeria Bill lacks a Vice Chairman, risking
leadership gaps, instability, and external interference unlike the Medical and
Dental Practitioners Bill. The NMCN Bill also reduces Council size without
ensuring sectoral representation, risking weak governance, poor policy
decisions, and dominance by narrow or external interests. Furthermore, the NMCN
Bill lacks provisions criminalizing quackery, protecting professional titles,
and holding institutions accountable—unlike the Medical and Dental
Practitioners (2026) (MDCN) Bill. This gap enables unqualified practice,
increases public risks, increases maternal and neonatal risks, weakens
enforcement, and erodes public trust. A new provision should prohibit
unregistered practice, protect titles (Nurse/Midwife), criminalize
impersonation and fraudulent registration, and impose penalties on individuals
and institutions employing unqualified personnel, with strong enforcement
powers for the NMCN. In addition, the Medical and Dental Practitioners Bill,
2026 introduces provisions that expand MDCN’s authority into multidisciplinary
domains and establishes exclusive regulatory control over areas already
governed by other statutory councils. This raises concerns regarding regulatory
overreach and structural imbalance within the healthcare system. Section 4(1)
of the National Hospital for Women and Obstetric Fistula Bill creates a
governance imbalance by allocating multiple seats to the medical profession
while all other health professions share a single representative. This
undermines equity and fails to reflect the multidisciplinary nature of fistula
care. Since Board decisions are by majority, it risks dominance by one
profession and marginalization of others.
Why
This Matters
The absence of leadership
qualification safeguards and lack of succession plan for the chairman for the
NMCN bill creates a legal loophole that may allow non-nurses to regulate the
nursing profession. The NMCN Bill cuts Council size without guaranteed
representation, risking professional marginalization, poor decisions, and
external control over the largest healthcare workforce. Excluding quackery
provisions from the Nursing and Midwifery Council of Nigeria Bill endangers
patients, weakens regulation, and enables unsafe practice. Strong criminalization
is essential to protect lives, ensure accountability, and uphold standards.
Moreover, healthcare delivery depends on teamwork, specialized expertise, mutual
professional respect and autonomy. Any attempt to centralize authority on the
MDCN or skew board membership in favour of the medical profession weakens
collaboration, creates institutional conflict, and reduces system efficiency.
Key
Concerns
Mandatory Requirement for a Nurse/Midwife
as Chairman of the Council
The absence of professional
qualification requirement for Chairman in the NMCN Bill forms a critical governance
gap. This omission constitutes a serious governance, legal, and professional
risk that must be urgently addressed in the interest of fairness, patient
safety, and regulatory integrity. A professional regulatory Council must be led
by members of the profession it regulates. This principle is consistent with
global best practices in professional governance and is essential for
maintaining credibility, accountability, and informed decision-making. Nursing
and midwifery regulation requires deep experiential knowledge of clinical care,
education, ethics, and workforce realities in the profession—competencies that
can only be meaningfully provided by qualified and experienced practitioners
within the profession. The failure to enshrine this requirement in law
undermines the autonomy and independence of nursing and midwifery practice. It
exposes the profession to potential external influence, weakens internal
governance structures, and risks policy decisions that may not align with the
realities of patient care. Ultimately, such a gap may compromise regulatory
effectiveness and adversely affect patient outcomes. Moreover, this omission
raises significant constitutional concerns regarding equity, fairness, and
non-discrimination. Allowing other professional councils to be led exclusively
by members of their own profession while denying nursing and midwifery the same
standard creates an unequal and unjust regulatory framework.
Recommended Amendment: To
safeguard professional integrity and ensure effective regulation, the Bill
should be amended to include that the NMCN Borad Chairman MUST be a Registered
Nurse or a Registered Midwife.
Suggested legislative
wording: “The Chairman of the Council shall be a
registered nurse or midwife with not less than fifteen (15) years
post-registration experience and demonstrable leadership within the profession.
No person who is not duly registered under this Act shall be eligible for
appointment as Chairman of the Council.”
Weak
Governance and Succession Structure in the NMCN Bill
Unlike the Medical and
Dental Practitioners (2026) (MDCN) Bill, which expressly provides for the
office of a Vice Chairman and thereby creates a clear line of internal
succession, the Nursing and Midwifery Council of Nigeria (NMCN) Bill appears to
lack a similarly defined governance and succession framework. This omission
creates a structural weakness in the administration of the Council. Without a
clearly designated officer to act in the absence, incapacity, removal, or
vacancy of the Chairman, the Council may be exposed to leadership uncertainty,
administrative disruption, and avoidable external interference in its internal
affairs. Such a gap is particularly concerning in a professional regulatory
body that is expected to maintain continuity, institutional stability, and
professional independence. A bill establishing a major professional council
should not leave questions of succession to discretion or improvisation. Where
succession is not expressly provided for, there is a greater risk that external
authorities may influence interim leadership arrangements in ways that could
undermine professional autonomy.
Recommended Amendment: The
NMCN Bill should be amended to expressly provide for the office of a Vice
Chairman, drawn from registered senior members of the nursing and midwifery
profession, who shall act whenever the Chairman is absent or when the office
becomes vacant pending the appointment or election of a substantive
replacement.
Suggested legislative
wording: “There
shall be a Vice Chairman of the Council who shall be a registered nurse or
midwife of not less than 15 years post-qualification experience, and who shall
perform the functions of the Chairman whenever the Chairman is absent, unable
to act, or where the office of the Chairman becomes vacant pending the
appointment of a new Chairman.”
Reduction of Nursing Representation in the
NMCN Bill
The proposed amendment to
the Nursing and Midwifery Council of Nigeria (NMCN) Bill emphasizes a reduction
in the size of the Council without establishing safeguards for proportional and
sectoral representation within the nursing profession. This approach contrasts
with the Pharmacy Council of Nigeria (PCN) bill, which maintains strong
professional dominance, and the Medical and Dental Practitioners (2026) (MDCN)
bill, which retains broad representation from multiple professional
associations. By focusing primarily on numerical reduction rather than balanced
representation, the NMCN Bill risks creating a governance structure that does
not adequately reflect the diversity of the nursing profession, especially
across clinical practice, academia, administration, and regulatory leadership.
Reduced representation diminishes the ability of nurses and midwives to
effectively shape policies affecting their profession. Failure to ensure
representation from clinical, academic, and regulatory sectors undermines
comprehensive decision-making. Furthermore, a smaller, non-representative
Council may become susceptible to dominance by a narrow group or external
interests.
Recommended Amendment: To
ensure equity, inclusiveness, and professional integrity, the Bill should
incorporate minimum representation thresholds for members of the Nursing and Midwifery
professions.
Suggested Legislative
Provision: “Not less than seventy percent (70%) of
the members of the Council shall be registered nurses and midwives, drawn from
diverse areas of practice including clinical services, academia,
administration, and professional associations, with due consideration for
experience and professional standing.”
Proposed Insertion of a quackery section
in the NMCN Bill
Insertion of new section — Offences
relating to quackery and unlawful practice

criminal liability under this section, the court may order—
(a) closure or suspension of the hospital, school, unit, facility, or
establishment in which the offence occurred, pending compliance with this Act;
(b) forfeiture to the Council of any forged licence, identification, stamp,
seal, badge, or document used in committing the offence; and
(c) publication of the conviction in such manner as the court or the Council
may determine.
(9) The Council may
collaborate with law-enforcement agencies and other relevant regulatory
authorities for the investigation, prosecution, and suppression of quackery in
nursing and midwifery practice.
Proposed Amendment to the Composition of the
Management Board – National Hospital for Women and Obstetric Fistula Bill, 2026
The Bill grants multiple
seats to Medical Directors (one per hospital), all of whom are medical doctors;
Provides only one seat for all other healthcare professions combined, including
nursing, pharmacy, physiotherapy, and laboratory science. This results in
disproportionate dominance by one professional group; marginalization of other
critical healthcare stakeholders; and a governance structure that does not
reflect the multidisciplinary nature of fistula care. Board decisions are made
by majority vote, and quorum is relatively small. A professionally skewed board
can systematically pass decisions without meaningful input from other
healthcare disciplines. This undermines fairness, inclusiveness, and technical
robustness in policy decisions.
Proposed Replacement of
Section 4(1): Delete Section 4(1)(e): “a representative
of other health professions”.
Substitute With the
Following Provision: “(e)
one representative each from the following healthcare professions: (i)
Nursing and Midwifery; (ii) Pharmacy; (iii) Medical
Laboratory Science; (iv) Medical Rehabilitation/Physiotherapy;
(f) the Heads of Nursing Services of the respective Hospitals.
The full proposed Revised
Board Composition in Section 4(1) should read:
The Board shall consist
of:
(a) a part-time Chairman;
(b) the Medical Directors of the Hospitals;
(c) a representative of the Federal Ministry of Health
not below the rank of Assistant Director;
(d) one representative of the medical profession;
(e) one representative each of: Nursing and Midwifery,
Pharmacy, Medical Laboratory Science, Medical Rehabilitation/Physiotherapy
(f) the Heads of Nursing Services of the respective
Hospitals
(g) two persons nominated by the Minister of Health to
represent community and patient interests, including women’s health advocacy.
Regulatory Overreach in the Medical and
Dental Practitioners (2026) (MDCN) Bill
The Bill grants MDCN
authority over Laboratory Sciences, Genetic Testing, Aesthetic Practice,
Alternative Medicine Practice, and Assisted Reproductive Technologies. These
areas are multidisciplinary fields and areas already regulated by other
councils.
Monopoly Clause in the MDCN Bill
The phrase “to the
exclusion of any other person or body” creates regulatory monopoly, suppression
of other professions and risk of abuse of power.
Risk of Constitutional Breach in the MDCN
Bill
The Bill, in its current
form, raises significant constitutional concerns under the Constitution of the
Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999, particularly in the area of equality and non-discrimination
. This is because the Bill appears to create a disproportionate regulatory
advantage for one healthcare professional group over other duly recognized
healthcare professions. This portends a serious concern under Section 42 of the
Constitution, which guarantees freedom from discrimination on the basis of
status, association, or profession. By subjecting multiple independent
healthcare professions to the oversight or control of a single profession, the
Bill risks institutionalizing professional inequality, undermining the legal
standing of other healthcare regulatory bodies and creating a biased hierarchy
not supported by constitutional principles. If not amended, such provisions may
constitute an official endorsement of discrimination, as they fail to uphold
equal recognition and autonomy of all healthcare professions within Nigeria’s
legal framework.
Policy
Position
We strongly affirm that
each healthcare profession must be regulated by its own independent statutory
body, constituted and governed by members of that profession, in accordance
with global best practices and the equity and fairness principles enshrined in
the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999. Professional
self-regulation is fundamental to preserving professional autonomy and identity,
ensuring context-specific standards of practice and ethics, promoting
accountability through peer-based oversight, and safeguarding the quality and
safety of patient care.

independently regulated by its statutory council established by law. Where any
aspect of healthcare practice involves multiple professions, regulatory
oversight shall be exercised through a collaborative framework involving all
relevant professional councils.”
LEGAL
BASIS FOR AMENDMENTS
This proposal is
supported by existing Nigerian laws, which recognize and uphold the principle
of independent and autonomous professional regulation across the healthcare
sector, including: Medical Laboratory Science Council of Nigeria Act (Cap M25
LFN 2004); Nursing and Midwifery (Registration, etc.) Act (Cap N143 LFN 2004);
Pharmacy Council of Nigeria Act (Amended 2022) and National Health Act (2014). These
laws establish independent regulatory authority for each profession, which must
not be overridden.
Conclusion
The 2026 Healthcare
Regulatory Bills contain critical structural and legal flaws that threaten
professional autonomy, patient safety, and effective healthcare delivery in
Nigeria. The Nursing and Midwifery Council of Nigeria (NMCN) Bill weakens its
own profession by failing to mandate that leadership (Chairman) be drawn from nursing, lacking a clear
succession structure, omitting anti-quackery provisions, and reducing council
size without ensuring fair representation. These gaps expose the profession to
external control, unsafe practices, and poor governance. Conversely, the
Medical and Dental Practitioners Bill (MDCN) expands its authority beyond its
core mandate, introducing monopoly-like provisions that encroach on other
healthcare professions. This risks institutional dominance, suppresses
interdisciplinary collaboration, and conflicts with existing regulatory laws. Additionally,
governance structures such as the Board composition in the National Hospital
for Women and Obstetric Fistula Bill create professional imbalance by favoring the
dominance of medical profession while marginalizing other key healthcare
disciplines. Collectively, these issues undermine equity, violate principles of
fairness and non-discrimination, and weaken Nigeria’s multidisciplinary
healthcare system. The National Assembly must urgently amend the Bills to
remove monopoly clauses, protect the autonomy of all professional councils,
strengthen the NMCN with proper governance and anti-quackery provisions, and
ensure equitable representation across professions. Ultimately, Nigeria’s
healthcare system can only achieve global standards through collaboration,
mutual respect, and balanced governance and not by professional dominance or
subjugation.
