FG Begins Registration of Medical Laboratories in Nigeria

The Federal Government on Wednesday began an online registration of medical laboratories in Nigeria to enhance service delivery

Dr. Tosan Erhabor, the Registrar of the Medical Laboratory Science Council of Nigeria (MLSCN) made this known in Abuja at a meeting with stakeholders and the agency’s consultants on automation led by Prof. Effiong Akpan of the University of Calabar.

“This is the latest in the series of council processes to be moved from the manual to the digital platform.

“Despite our meager resources, the council has successfully transformed other processes including Licensure, Examination, Indexing, Accreditation Service, and External Quality Assurance (EQA) and now the registration of medical laboratories,” he said.

The council was warned not to relent or rest on its oars in the discharge of its statutory duties.
