A Social Work Council is a national necessity. It will identify and certify qualified professionals, remove impostors, promote ethics and accountability, and protect those affected by trauma, crisis, and neglect. #October1st#EstablishNigeriaSocialWorkCouncilNow@officialABAT
π’ Advocacy Day 39 - Social Work in Nigeria
For thirty-nine days, we have continued to remind Nigeria of the urgent need for a Social Work Council. Every strong nation invests in structures that protect its people. #OneBattleAfterAnother@officialABAT#Brevis
π¨ Nigeria still lacks a Social Work Council, leaving social workers & vulnerable groups unprotected.
We need regulation, licensing & dignity for the profession.
The time to act is NOW! @officialABAT#kolade
β A Council will ensure proper licensing and professional standards.
β It will safeguard vulnerable populations from quack interventions.
β It will elevate the dignity of the profession and strengthen Nigeriaβs social welfare system. @officialABAT#kolade#Newcastle
Stronger Social Welfare Systems with a Council, Nigeria can build better policy responses, reliable service delivery & trust in social work as a profession that contributes meaningfully to national development. #martinelli@officialABAT@channelstv@ARISEtv@seunokin@ruffydfire
Delay in creating this Council means continued vulnerability for many, risk of unqualified practice, and erosion of public trust. It means that every crisis be it in health, child welfare, or community support is harder to address effectively and fairly. @officialABAT#Amorim
A council of equipped social workers means stronger child protection π§, better healthcare support π₯, community development π, and a professional system that serves the vulnerable with dignity and accountability. #Amorim#shaw#ManchesterUnited
A nation cannot thrive when its social systems are weak. Social workers are at the heart of addressing issues of child protection, mental health, gender-based violence, substance abuse, and community welfare. Yet, without a statutory Council. @officialABAT#Madueke
A Council means more than recognition, it means order, accountability, and protection. It means our students will have direction, our professionals will have standards, and our communities will have trust in the services they receive.
