Emphasizing the need for the encouragement of healthcare workers, President Dr. Victor Makanjuola charged the Government to take serious the increment of salaries and other hazard allowances for healthcare workers in the country, like their counterparts across the world, in order to prevent the migration of healthcare workers to other countries.

He also charged members of the Association on Professionalism while discharging their duties.
