The Federal Government in Nigeria has announced ambitious plans to increase the number of medical students admitted to medical schools to 20,000 per year over the next three years. Part of this initiative involves the establishment of six simulation centres across the country's six geopolitical zones, according to Dr. Tunji Alausa, the Minister of Education.
These centres are designed to provide world-class practical training for medical, dental, nursing, pharmacy, and other allied healthcare students. The minister praised the members of the Tertiary Education Trust Fund Medical Simulation Committee for their efforts in achieving this goal, stating that the centres would support the government's plan to expand Nigeria's healthcare workforce under President Bola Tinubu's Renewed Hope Agenda.
