UNITED KINGDOM BANS HEALTH WORKERS FROM BRINGING DEPENDANTS.

The United Kingdom UK has banned Health and Care Workers from bringing dependants to the country.

This was made known by the UK Home Office via its official X handle yesterday as part of its plan to reduce migration into the country, adding that overseas care workers brought an estimated 120,000 dependants to the UK in the year ending September 23.

It would be recalled that the Home Office of the United Kingdom on Tuesday, Jan 2, announced the commencement of the implementation of its policy banning Nigerian students and other overseas students from bringing in dependants through the study visa route.

The policies are coming amid the influx of Nigerians into the UK and other countries in what is now popularly known as Japa syndrome
