Africa-Press – South-Sudan. <\/strong><\/span>At least 186 health students from the two colleges of Kapoeta and Torit are writing their final National Health Professional Examination Board at the Torit Health Science Institute.<\/p>\n

According to the health officials, this year\u2019s enrolment of the candidates in the five carders of Midwifery, Nursing, Lab-Technician, and Pharmacy, is higher compared to the last year with only about 170 health students who sat for the exams.<\/p>\n

Addressing candidates yesterday, the Principal of Torit Health Science Institute, Tobia Omal, said it is the sixth batch the candidates sitting for the national examination since the establishment of the institute in 2015.<\/p>\n

\u201cToday, our sixth batch of health students are sitting for their final qualifying National Health Professional Examination Board. This exam is across South Sudan. However, normally we have two sittings: one is in June and another one is in November,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Omal was impressed by the high number of female candidates sitting this year, terming it an improvement.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn Torit Health Science Institute, this time we have been blessed, we have seen the majority of the candidates, 54 per cent females sitting and 46 per cent percent are males, and all the total for the fresh students sitting we have 186 which combined Kapoeta health science institute the Kapoeta they don\u2019t have a centre yet. That\u2019s why we are hosting them here.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Eastern Equatoria State Minister of Health, Koteen Thomas, said the students looked ready for the exams.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am very glad today because I am seeing your faces are also shining and glad. I heard somebody has said the time has come, he waited for three years and it\u2019s the right time now and I hope everybody is prepared.\u201d The examination is expected to end on Saturday, November 11.<\/p>\n
