Dependants are no longer permitted for care workers entering the UK on Health and Care Worker visas as of right now. This is a component of our strategy to bring about the largest migration reduction ever,” it stated.

This notification was made the day after the Nigerian government requested that all medical professionals submit their resignations prior to leaving the country.

During his visit to the Neuro Psychiatric Hospital, Aro, on Saturday in Abeokuta, Dr. Tunji Alausa, the Minister of State for Health, issued this directive.

According to him, medical professionals who travel overseas in search of better opportunities must “henceforth resign their appointment before embarking on such journeys.”

The Minister went on to say that President Bola Tinubu’s Executive Order included the directive.
