A Giant Step Forward

Fawole Israel

The nursing community in Nigeria has taken another great leap forward to the actualization of her leadership goals in Nigeria. 

There has been a sudden surge in the global advocacy for governments to invest in Nursing leadership. And nursing organizations and communities worldwide have keyed into this vision by using their various platforms to create campaigns – educating, inspiring & empowering nurses. 

We know that there will be more Nurses who will emerge as National & International leaders. 

This breed of nurses will represent the profession the way we want them to, carrying the burden, and having a solid vision for the future of the profession. 

They will be in Governance & Leadership, in Industry, Commerce & Finance, in Technology & Science, Research & Academics – all over. 

We will have them in strategic positions in society, fighting for the enactment of policies that will favor the growth & development of the profession.  

“Nurses should get involved with politics. It’s when we are involved that we can influence decisions that affects the profession. I encourage nurses to stop being apathetic towards politics. We need more nurses who will be active in the political realms of leadership, they should get their PVC’s [Permanent Voter’s Card], join political parties, attend ward meetings — they should be fully involved, participating in political activities at all levels — from the Local Governments to the State, and to the National level, contributing to matters that concern nation-building.” 

Fawole Israel. 

Nurses need to discard societal myths that have prevented them from being actively involved in political leadership. 

If we are not properly represented we can’t push for the desired change. 

And who is in the best position to represent us, to defend our interest than someone from within? 

This is a call to all nurses [not just in Nigeria, but in Africa & all over the globe] to start taking political leadership seriously. 

The Institute sends her hearty congratulations to Rt. Hon Fawole Israel, and prays that this will be one giant leap for him as a leader, and for the nursing community.
