Wau, 04 July, 2021 / 7:00 pm (ACI Africa).
New graduate nurses and midwives in South Sudan have been urged to manifest humility in their daily duties as they attend to patients.
Addressing graduating nurses and midwives of the Catholic Health Training Institute (CHTI) July 1, the health institution under the auspices of Wau Diocese, the Local Ordinary, Bishop Matthew Remijio noted a deficit of the value of humility in the South Sudanese society.
“Show them (patients) humility in whatever you say, whatever you do, let it be accompanied by humility,” Bishop Remijio said, adding, “Humility is lacking in our society and sometimes even from within the Church.”
The South Sudanese Bishop further said, “If you go to the society to find a job without humility in it, you will not save anybody; you will not save lives, which means that all that you have learned is rubbished and you put it in a dustbin.”
The Wau-based Catholic health institute graduated 41 health personnel, among them 16 midwives and 25 nurses in a ceremony in which religious leaders, politicians and community leaders in Western Bhar el Ghazal state took part.
