The Provost disclosed that the Y2022 Set would be the last set to be capped and strapped at the College, adding that this is due to the commencement of its Ordinary National Diploma (OND) programme while awaiting the accreditation team from the National Board for Technical Education (NBTE) for the commencement of Higher National Diploma (HND) programme.


She stated that the State Government has shown its commitment by supporting and investing in human capital development at the College, this is in addition to providing automatic employment for Students Nurses after completion of their programmes.


The Guest Speaker and Head, Department of Midwifery, Lagos University Teaching Hospital (LUTH), Dr. (Mrs.) Betty Omo-Ojo, speaking on the theme: “Climate Change and Human Health: The Midwives Perspective”, emphasised that it is the responsibility of Midwives to show support and prevent Maternal and Infant Mortality by doing everything to ensure the safety of mother and child
