I calculated per year. And you conveniently left out fuel or transportation feeding, nanny fees, maid fees, creche, hospital appointments, car maintenance e.t.c. Since you feel so strongly, u , your family and friends can go to school and study medicine since its a cake walk and graduate then come and collect 200k as salary. No matter how you rant on here, Doctors will still relocate. When u put all those stupid conditions on the course, they will simply go and study it elsewhere. Plus paying 20m a year for 5 years for a salary of 1.6m a year when you r not even sure the salary will come and very crazy working environments is not exactly a wise investment. Also realise that the UK also go for the cream of the doctors. You will be left with those that barely made it out of med school. Your bitterness and anger are better directed at those that gave rise to the situation in the first instance. Point of correction, I am in IT. My investments comfortably net me 200k monthly without working. Just an idea. 200k is slave money for the kind of work Doctors do. frog12: 7 Likes |

I no AGREE. THEY WILL still relocate if government does not begin to UNDERSTAND they are subsidising this movement. Where else will they go for CHEAP MEDICAL education without strict conditions? tell me. To enter med school, is not an easy feat, so we expect those that make it, to be the best anyway. The REASONS given so far is salary is not enough, this is not enough. It is all GREED. EVEN if government increase salary, can it stop THE RELOCATION? NO! greedy people go for the HIGHEST BIDDER. georgeiyke009: |

Re: Doctors’ Exodus Looms As International Flights Resume This Week by Nobody: 10:44am On Aug 26, 2020 |
Subsidise bawo. Your economy is not structured to cater for that. If you take out the subsidy and pay 25million base salary, people will pay those high amounts. The 2 go hand in hand. Also have structures for student loans. Having a high paying fee course in Nigeria with the current working conditions and salary structures for Doctors will make it very bad investment. I will advise my wards to study something else. Back to square one. We all know what the actual problem is but choose to play ostrich. The world economy for talent has gone global. Compete on the world stage or die. martineverest: |

Let me ask you. If you are asked to $50k to study medicine each year for 6 years and then when you graduate, you are paid 140k take home per month with the attendant delays in payment, would you do that? The amount of money paid as school fees is commensurate with the salary and working structure for doctors. Raise the fees and also raise the salary to world standards. People will even borrow money to fund it. frog12: |

Re: Doctors’ Exodus Looms As International Flights Resume This Week by frog12: 11:04am On Aug 26, 2020 |
you are TWISTING the facts. In Western countries, you pay $50k per year to study medicine. That's like N20 million naira per year. In Nigeria, someone even said her sister paid about N80k every year to study medicine. That's subsidised education. Ask yourself why anyone will pay $50k per year and want N140k per month salary. There's no sense there. In Western countries, even their medical graduates only start to make enough after years of low salaries. There is a psychology lock that was designed for a reason. As always, we are dullards in Nigeria. We are ruled by Dullards that used to cheat and fail in classrooms. 140k per month take home salary is enough. the doctors just want to RECEIVE PAY ACCUSTOMED TO what they perceive as an occupation that should be respected. WE have this foolish I want to be KING attitude. You must have 12 servants. an houseboy to wash your car. a dog to smash your Orange into JUICE. How much does TOP doctors make? If they don't like it, open your Private CLINIC! The reason they runaway, is because we don't have that LOCK. Ghana government realised this, that's why they have a new POLICY AFTER investing and subsidising the medical studies of their citizens. They don't want them to emigrate after a few years. If I were these DOCTORS, I would open a PRIVATE CLINIC. That way, you can earn more! But because Nigerians are foolish, especially specialised occupantions like MEDICINE, we take the FIRST option: RUNAWAY and EMIGRATE. georgeiyke009: 1 Like |

sort of. rich kids can afford prep lessons. poor kids can not. but most of the medical doctors you see, are from well-of families. that's the point. ahiboilandgas: |

martineverest:Just like you are right on that side, you also need to consider that Nigerian graduates have personal responsibility to stay out of poverty and pursue happiness. The political and economic climate of Nigeria doesn't guarantee that. They are supposed to give back to Nigeria....but give back in suffering, poverty and insecurity? Ought to presupposes sustained enablement. 1 Like |

Make them stay then by whatever lock you intend. And then we can see how that works. Ghana is not Nigeria. Their people are timid and not really resourceful. Which other country "locks" a particular profession from travelling anywhere in the world apart from shithole countries? Do you not understand that it will simply make very bright people to not bother studying the course at all? Even if medicine and surgery courses are free but you fail to pay a living wage, people will still leave. Solution is to pay a wage that makes sense. They can go to a different country or simply refuse to practise and go into something else. Also enact a law that must force them to practise at all if they do not want to. Like i said you are welcome to try. History has shown that in matters like this only a "carrot" works. frog12: 1 Like |

There is none. You Re the one thinking there is. The school fees for the course and current compensation structure are at par, so the FG is doing no one any favors. They are free agents and can decide to take their skills elsewhere. frog12: 1 Like |
