Japa level I wish I’m an health practitioner

You'd stay in Nigeria to revive the healthcare

And you will have thought that the laws of demand and supply will spur this indolent government to raise the remunerations and benefits of those who are left to stop the hemorrhaging (no pun intended).

But I won't be surprised if they are glad the doctor/patient ratio is getting as long as the odds between Barcelona beating Barcelona anytime in the near future, as it will afford corrupt officials a windfall in ghost doctor salaries.

This country is in urgent need of chemotherapy.

Doctors are not meant to be fleeing, wars, poverty, crime, dilapidation and what not. This idea that Doctors need some sort of enabling environment such as great wages, well equipped hospitals, peace and stability etc most be a modern concept. Doctors and Politicians are public servants. Politicians more so than doctors, sure, but the sentiment is salient.

I have no enduring issues with Doctors leaving for better pay - fine let's leave sentiments out of things - but it is irritating when people try to justify thire leaving based on issues to do with "third worldness".

When Tribe and religion instead of merit becomes the criteria to choose leaders, these are part of the results...

You've said it all.

Who cares about doctors , we are God blessed in this nation .what God can't do doesn't exists.

Our miracle churches have healed and blessed every body in this country.

UK is godless country ,who might require doctors .

We the great citizens of this country are protected by blood of the God.

See this mumu

We have to give them a better working environment and bar them from leaving.

NMA with their propaganda , The only thing me I know medicine can do is Malaria, Typhoid , pain relief and Antibiotic , aside from these 4 tell me another diseases that have cure.... I don't believe in medicine, infact , I don't go to hospital.

just thank God for ur life. U no go see problem.
People that go to hospital don't like to go there too. But they had no choice

They should all go abroad because of the useless and insensitive govt of APC and Buhari. Times are hard

OPICANTO2223:
Drs are using this very few japa opportunity to creat relevance. Tell us how many that failed the foreign exam. It will amuse everyone. 600 Nigerian doctors applied and 90 passed. Most of the doctors are doing health assistant oversea.

So how does your assertion dispute the fact that we are short of doctors and our health care system is decaying daily? And please, why do our leaders Japa to treat ear pain, head ache etc if you are trying to dispute this report. One ekwerenmadu is still in prison in UK for the fact that, as a leader, he has no confidence in our health care system

Every slowpoke is talking about exodus of health care practitioners even your president and politicians can't do without going abroad for treatment.
You can't stop anyone from going abroad for jobs, even your national assembly of thieves can't.
Keep voting fools on religion and ethnic basis, you all will suffer it one way or the other.

Doctors are paid too much in Nigeria..... Very greedy people

What are Drs paid compared to your thieving politicians who steal crude oil to join to their greed.

Make una de get conscience oo

Nobody is well paid in Nigeria

Nigeria needs to build more medical schools and train more doctors.

Perhaps Nigeria should try publicising and fussing over those doctors that choose to remain in Nigeria, working for the positive health needs of Nigerians against all odds.

Continually emphasising Jappanese Doctors neglects the contribution these remaining doctors make to society and encourages them to dream of leaving too.

Encouragement does not have to mean money especially when money is scarce. Publicise these doctors that choose to stay in Nigeria. Award them, consult them in the media, make them celebrity heroes etc...

Hm

Racoon:

These are the grossly irresponsible leaders zombies are cheering on in this nation? Imagine this collapse & state of emergency in the health sector alone of our national life.

Not to even think of the corresponding collapse of other sectors like security, economy, agriculture,
and other strata of our national life.

What have you to say to this?:

In Biafra they will find home again.

It still beat my imagination that every week they will bring it up. Nurses japa 500tiimes more than doctors but you wont hear it.

I think they need to call attention to it. It is not a good thing that Doctors are leaving the system in that magnitude. And ofcourse, the impact of doctors leaving will put more stress on the system than nurses leaving. I believe the turn over of nurses is far more than that of doctors across our schools. Therefore it is going to be easier to fill nurses gaps than doctors

OPICANTO2223:

There are 3-5 nurses per doctor. Do the maths and see why their exodus is worrisome

Pay doctors well and you'll not have these issues.

Absolute rubbish!! Pure kindergarten trash!! You must be in fantasy world.[color=#990000][/color]

Theunbothered:
I'm sure Neddstark and other urchins who want to turn doctors into slaves will apply to medical school so we can meet the demand.

Your family members dey go babalawo so you are very unbothered. Uncivilized lots.

How is your NMA application going?

I am told several IDP camps in Kogi are in need of doctors, that should be your first point of call.

Adeolajude:
The truth is everyone cannot go and a country can't go down because of japa as some people are seeing hope in japa other fighters are also seeing the opportunity in staying behind to fill the void japa people left behind..simple truth.

Haiti went to shit because of jaapa
So no think am

Banking industry & Big four firms are another industry that are worst hit.

If Bobo Chicago enter next year, na God hand we dey cos insecurity would be worse, danfo & agbero will be emboldened.

There would be currency crunch & dearth of infrastructural facilities.

superCleanworks:
Not just doctors.
but who do we blame?

Even engineers too o. Effect of bad governance
