marvellous2222: Mumu talk. If my skills are more valued in another country with my tax money well used and my actual salary paid I'll gladly be a slave to that company. Doctors abroad earn times 3 of what they earn in Nigeria especially public health doctors. Do research before talking |

pol23:Doctors and nurses are not like most professionals. They are life-savers. You need their experience. Foreign remittance will not save you when you need brain or cardio-thoracic surgery or when you need a diagnosis, neither will a fresh medical graduate from Unilorin or uniben be useful to you in that situation. Their years of experience is worth more than dollars. It's the difference between life and death. 8 Likes |

pol23: The Indians do this, reason they can perfom cutting-edge procedures locally. Most of the top Specialists in the UK are Indians-- they have gone far!!!! It is almost the same in the US too. When more of our Children get first class education, it will benefit us in the end. Even if only 1% come back to establish something, it will be a plus. Not to talk of the forex they will send home |

There is no way Nigeria can retain our Doctors. It is just impossible now. I really feel sorry for my country that things may get worse. The few Doctors that would be left would be personal Doctors to the Elites. They must be making around 50 to 100m annually to avoid being tempted to Japa. Doctors are not IT or economics guys that you can quickly produce. Very soon, no Doctors would be available to treat our people unless we elect a radical President who can quickly change our course. Another positive, let's reduce the UTME cutoff mark for Medicine a little bit, build more training facilities and start training a lot of Doctors. We know 70% would end in Canada. They must sign a contract that if they travel to practice after graduation, they must pay 50m Naira developmental fee to Ng Govt within the first 3 yrs of their practice abroad. 2 Likes |

NtoAkwaIbom:People like these don't have sense just like their Agbado master. So you are still tolling this line of we subsidized med school for them to go practice abroad. you see your country keep losing medical professionals every day to the UK, US and Canada, instead of your government to take of ways to train more medical professionals so that we do not suffer shortage of medical professionals in the future, which can be disastrous for the nation, you are here whining how can we subsidized medical school for them. pol23:Wise advice, that is if only they will listen. vengeful wicked politicians and useless citizens supporting them.

CSTRR:I believe people in this category are actually practicing in Nigeria because they actually want to stay. They’re not part of the people seeking to relocate as they’re consultants and practice everywhere around the world… I have an uncle like that who just dash to the US and dash out…. I want to assume they don’t belong in the category of people who’re trying to leave the country. |

Canada should blame themselves for the challenge they are facing. I looked until I was tired of looking for a medical course in canada in those days for my bro. Only one out of several of their universities was offering medicine, not even on a full scale . Their citizens would go to America to study medicine and return to canada to practice. 1 Like |

The problem is we have many young people, but how many of them have brains that can carry medicine? So, grooming must start from kindergarten so that we can have many brains that can do Medicine. As it is right now, most of our youths' brains can't carry Medicine. Some can but the get-rich-quick mentality that has engulfed our society now won't let them have the patience to stay in school for 7 to 8 years cos successful skit makers and Youtubers today can be richer than Doctors anywhere in the world. Medicine is not very difficult compare to Engineering/Computing, but it requires a lot of attention. You have a lot of large books to read. That's why American kids are not doing it like before. Their kids are seeing many YouTubers making cool millions, so why go to schl for 10-12yrs to study Medicine? They want to flex. Trust me, the few ones that study Medicine in Nigeria are top-tier students. Many of them are the best students in their Secondary schools. It means they score over 280 in JAMB and passed the rigor of 7yrs in Uni. Remember, some students are being kicked out after 3 or 4yrs. This process is the reason we produce Doctors capable of doing well in America and Europe. If we turn the production process to "pure water", that is "iru wa ogiri wa", by the time Nigerian Doctors kill like 20 people in Canada/US due to silly mistakes, they would change the policy. Your advice is good, but we will need about 10-15 years to groom a new set of brains. pol23: 3 Likes 1 Share |

The truth is that Nigeria Medical Doctors and other Medical Personnel are one of the most drilled and very qualified Professionals in the World! It's this Western Imperialism ( very arrogant) postulations ( in UK,other Western Countries) as in - you have to take Test for English - when in reality most Nigerians have been using English Language since they were born and some cannot even speak their Mother tongues! Nigeria Medical Courses are just too loaded, because it's about Saving Lifes,so nothing is taken for granted.So, instead of subjecting our locals to this rough deal,why don't you just do test for them to select the best! Nevertheless,it's a welcome development and kudos to our Teachers/Professors in the Nigerian Universities. 1 Like 1 Share |

The backlash has been brewing for a while. Recruited Asian and a few African doctors are protesting of horrible and hostile work environment in UK. This is how they value them abroad. When Americans cry that immigrants depressed their wages, this is what they mean. It started with teachers, then nurses and now doctors. Our doctors are saying they would rather work as happy slaves where they value them as slaves! AntiZikist: 1 Like |

HBB1: Most of the top specialists in the UK are not Indians Yes a good number are but not most. The other thing is Their specialist training happened in the UK not India. They are. UK trained specialists It all comes down to numbers they have a population of over 1 billion There is nothing special I am happening in Indian healthcare Their indices are not much better than Nigeria's If India was that great they won't be leaving in such large numbers |
