Herbalists in Lagos want Governor Babatunde Fashola to support their craft by establishing institutions.
Yesterday Tuesday 4th February 2014, the Lagos State Chapter of the Nigeria Union of Medical Herbal Practitioners, called on the Lagos state government to allocate lands to the union.
The union will like the government to
build general hospitals and maternity centers across the state for the
practice of traditional medicine. Vanguard reports.
The union with two million plus members,
appealed to Governor Babtunde Fashola to accept their request as “a
parting gift and lasting legacy” for the promotion of herbal medicine
practice to compliment orthodox medical practice in Lagos.
Leaders of the unions informed that the
hospital and maternity centres will create a forum for the government to
monitor their practice as well as confirm the power of their practice
and regulate them effectively.
