Introduction 
When Nigerian artiste Ilerioluwa Aloba popularly known as Mohbad died under unclear medical circumstances in 2023, it sparked national outrage. Rumours that a nurse had administered an injection that led to his death were broadcast. The Nursing and Midwifery Council of Nigeria addressed it shortly. The accused was not a registered and licensed nurse! The real tragedy is that this isn’t rare. Across Nigeria, people unknowingly receive care from unlicensed individuals posing as nurses leading to avoidable complications, injuries, and even death.

The Problem
Quackery in nursing is a silent epidemic. There is no quick, public-facing way to verify who is a licensed nurse. Patients are left vulnerable. Genuine nurses are underrecognized. There is an increased workforce shortage of nurses and trust is broken.
