Tinubu Grants Automatic Employment To 774 National Health Fellows

President Bola Tinubu has approved automatic employment for all 774 Fellows of the National Health Fellowship (NHF) upon successful completion of their training programme.

The NHF initiative, introduced under President Tinubu’s leadership, is a bold step aimed at transforming Nigeria’s healthcare sector by harnessing the potential of young Nigerians. The programme is designed to equip the fellows with the necessary skills and experience to enhance the country’s medical workforce.

In his address to the fellows, President Tinubu emphasized their importance to the nation’s healthcare system, describing them as the “pillars” of Nigeria’s health infrastructure. He highlighted their critical role in ensuring the delivery of quality medical services across the country.

“You are the pillars of our health system,” President Tinubu said, reinforcing their importance in advancing the nation’s health sector and making a significant impact on public health delivery.

The automatic employment guarantee is seen as a major incentive for the fellows and a commitment by the Tinubu administration to invest in Nigeria’s healthcare future by providing sustainable job opportunities for young professionals in the sector.
