Months After ‘You Are Hired’ Pledge, NHF Fellows Still Await Appointment Letters
Months after President Tinubu told the National Health Fellows “You are hired,” many graduates of the programme have yet to receive their appointment letters. Some resigned from existing roles and turned down other offers in reliance on this promise. The delay is causing uncertainty and financial strain for young professionals who had committed fully to the fellowship. It also risks undermining public trust in government pledges and could discourage future participation in national initiatives. These NHF fellows are trained, motivated individuals ready to support Nigeria’s health sector. Issuing their letters, clarifying placements, and maintaining open communication would restore confidence and show that presidential commitments are kept.
