Announcing the results, the Executive Secretary of the Nurses Examinations Board, Helen Kataratambi said that a total of 2433 candidates sat for the exams with 49 passing with distinctions, and only 41 were ungraded.

She has decried the shortage of tutors in all the 37 nursing institutions across the country which she says is failing the operations of the institutions.

Receiving the results from the executive secretary, Education and Sports minister Jesica Alupo urged UNEB to always make use of the little available resources to produce good quality nurses if the health sector is to grow.

She also revealed that government has already approved the appointment of 80 tutors to be deployed in all the nursing institutions across the country effective next year.
