Its simple. You want to practice in UK get trained there afterall its where you want to work. Let those who want to stay get trained using subsidy and contribute to the society

Kobonaire4:



Do as sane countries do and raise the tax to gdp ratio and remove subsides on petrol and power...so that there would be more money for the medicos to stay.

What then should all the unemployed or grossly underemployed do then? Should they now carry arms against the populace just because the government failed to provide jobs for them. Yes agreed that doctors may not be paid as their colleagues in Usa, Uk and the likes. But you swore an oath to protect lives . That should come first, the citizens always sympathize with doctors and urge govt to up doctors pay. The issue with our Nigerian doctors is what I call long throat and that has becloud the patriotism in them.

yemmit90:
Although doctors are not well paid and their working condition cannot be compare with those in Europe and Ameica, I will suggest government should enact a law that will mandate any trained doctor within Nigeria educational system to practice for at least 10 years before he/she will be eligible to seek employment in another system or country. This is the best way to make they appreciate or useful to a system that subsidise their training for them. Government too should try as much as possible to increase doctors pays and improve their working condition.

Medicine science is an highly expensive department, if not that government subsidise it heavily, many of these doctors won't be able to pay the tuition fee, let alone other equipments needed for ther practicals.

Virtually all graduates are underpaid in Nigeria, and alot of us are still coping one way or the other. Government is useless, but we should not allow our grievances to cause another grave problem in the future. If all competent doctors and nurses leaves, then what is the hope of a common man who need urgent medical attention. What is the usefulness of spending billions of tax payers money to train them and not useful to the same system?

And the leaders continue their oversea trip for healthcare abi.

With the number of idiots in this country, there's no hope of progress. Anybody that wants to succeed in life should japa. Competing with these idiots will drag person down.

Ventura1:
I think it is unfair actions by the Doctors, considering the fact that they enjoy subsidized training to become a medical practitioners. Their earnings is also not too poor considering the overall standard in Nigeria now.

That you see another family doing well doesn't mean you should disown yours.

let them leave, all this noise is so irritating to the eyes to read- as if leaving nigeria is a guarantee for success - let me tell you, 80% of them won’t even pass their certification exam in 10 years and will end up becoming biology avd physics teachers while trying each year to pass - i have seen many like that in California- dem think say with that their 11 BC medicine they studied in Nigerian Universities is enough to be recognized as a doctor in a place like USA? maybe in Malawi or Gabon - no developed society will recognize them as doctors when they step of the plane, except they go back to school spending years and pass the certification exams in those countries and after paper matter and unending bills and expense of living abroad drag them left and right ….. before they know what is happening - many will end up in professions far from medicine in the end -

Abroad is not Nigeria where you have the luxury to be a student - do nothing and be catered for as our parents did for us in Nigeria - here you work to pay bills as you go to school and only very few people will survive that lifestyle adjustment abroad because many will get frustrated and some may end up becoming mortuary attendant or package delivery agents just to pay the bills and eventually get tired of paying ihuge amount of money trying to get certified without success - the grass is always greener on the other side


in their eyes abroad is all milk and honey - they are all welcome to taste it, Amen

They just game the Nigerian government.
They got cheap medical education and will rather use it for another country.....why didnt they go to study the medidcine in europe or america....they wont because they cant afford it.
The didnt complain about ill equiped medical schools and teaching hospitals while training only to jump on the next plane to countries where they couldnt afford to study Medicine.....
Before anyone says rubbish....... doctors that want to practice in USA should go there for their studies if they can afford it not take advantage of the subsidized medical education in Nigeria and thereafter run away......Government subsidized it so many people can be trained to be useful to the country.

Splitmind:
We need to start arresting doctors who make known their intentions to leave. This unpatriotic and foolish attitude must be stopped immediately!

Oleash:
11BC medicine right. Yet people get angry that the 11BC doctors are leaving. I obliterated my exams, got a great job in a world class hospital in a G7 country (rated top 5 globally in its specialty). I got a relocation package to cover my flight, visa, accomodation, miscellaneous and was picked up in style at the airport. I can request even the most advanced CT scan and get the images in minutes. My first salary was more than my 3 years salary in Nigeria. You don't value us, others do. It shouldn't be a big deal we are leaving. The president seeks healthcare abroad, politicians come abroad to be managed by teams including Nigerian doctors, yet the soft targets receive the bashing.

success doesn’t scream - it smiles in silent accomplishment and contentment

for you to be screaming this way shows you are lying and bitter that life has handed you a curve … please stop lying and face your mortuary attendant job in some hell hole fireign country you now find yourself and stop disturbing us with japa story - japa quietly and go for your dreams - you don’t need noise to make it

addexx:


You just dey cap like village goat. With a population of over 200m in the poverty capital of the world with increasing shortage of health workers , you still expect medical education not to be subsidized. The way you compare our education with that of stable economies with good education and health infrastructure is electrocuting. Check the facilities, equipment, manpower, standard of living, student welfare and quality of training, minimum wage, renumeration packages and gdp in these countries then you'll understand why medical education is expensive. Even at that their students have access to student loans to make things easy. Nothing of such is obtainable here.
Do you know the number of demons you have to fight to become a doctor. The only good thing I can say about our system here is that we have good educators and zealous students. Every other thing is management.
Now you become a doctor earning less than peanuts and working ungodly hours handling 200 patients a day in dead facilities with epileptic health-care system and a government that does not give a pig sh#t about your welfare and survival. On top of that dey decide to owe you for months.

Haba until dey die?. And you are there blaming doctors for leaving instead of facing the facilitators of our wrecked healthcare.

God how people reason these days

Thanks to poor leadership

Meanwhile I am not a hospital freak and I hate going close to anywhere they call hospital

Jesus is taken care of my family and I

We tried to eat more of our local natural foods and avoid junk almost all the times

Stop slicing your vegetables at the market place, it’s dangerous and it kills. Watch your vegetables at home properly before slicing them and keep your self and your surroundings clean at all times

You want to live long, accept Jesus Christ as your lord and savior, not as the preachers want you to do but purely as the Bible says, cast all your worries to him and he will make everything beautiful in his own time

Eat right and love yourself & family, love Jesus Christ and your neighbors you will be healthy and will have no need for chemical agents

PresidentAtiku:
what if government decides to govern well? Why not ask for that rather than blaming the innocent doctors as if you have them scholarship
😒😏😒😏

barbstee:
And many of them actually studied the course for almost free

Will they have been able to study medicine abroad with the same fees they used without scholarship?

But all they are after now is money, money and money. I'm not saying they shouldn't be well taken care of . But they should also remember that this same country made them who they are.

But an average Nigerian isn't patriotic

Like I said earlier,u are a poor and person both in pocket and mind...this post u just made just confirmed it

Venerable612:


True, and I quite agree with your analysis - but the same government ought to provide good benefits to the Doctors when they qualify.

It seems many of them, like Lawyers, struggle after graduating.
