Lol, it has everything to do with APC. When APC politicians meet with UK ambassadors, what do you think they discuss?
nairalanda1:


I hate to inform you, but it has nothing to do with APC, and everything to do with the fact that the UK feels uncomfortable about poaching Nigerian and other developing countries doctors.

Also, why should you be happy if our doctors are going abroad? It puts strain on those left behind.

PLus, even if they voted Peter Obi, (and speaking as a medico, most of my colleagues voted for Obi)...would it stop doctors leaving for foregin shores.Were they not leaving before Buhari came along self?

The British are the masters of double speak, corruption and loopholes. They also know most Nigerians do not understand English even though they supposedly speak it, which is why many countries require our students to pass English proficiency tests and also as exemplified in many prominent cases that have hit the headlines that are rooted in a failure of English comprehension. Examples being 1) a failure to understand the meaning “minimum qualifications” resulting in many politicians having their elections overturned for forging documents they never needed in the 1st place because they had legitimate higher qualifications or a whole former Vice President seeking to disqualify a candidate based on a school certificate he does not need , 2) failure to understand the meaning of “convicted” and “under sentence” hence a presidential candidate is seeking to disqualify his opponent based on arguments that are non-starters.

Anyway I digress, When the English speak, you have to pay attention to what they say and the words they use. “Will not actively seek” is not the same as “will no longer seek”. or “will no longer employ”. All it means is they will no longer come looking for Nigerian doctors. There is nothing in that statement that says they are not seeking or will no longer employ Nigerian doctors. The key word being “ actively” and it does not imply they will not “passively” seek. Long and short it does not mean they will no longer seek Nigerian doctors.

You have to understand the English man and the English language. In my native language Yoruba the words liar and thief have no ambiguity, it is “iro” and “ole”. A dishonest man is a liar and a thief is a thief but in English, you have words like embezzlement, corruption, looting, swindling etc that disguise what is ultimately stealing. Be wary of the English language, what you think you are hearing is not often what is being said especially from those whose language it is or truly understand the language and addresses to those who have a simplistic rudimentary, incomplete or naive comprehension of the language.

In your mind now you understand English comprehension better than everybody here. Smh

Nigeria as been in the Red list before now and yet Uk employers are still recruiting people.

What the red list only means is that Uk cannot advertise jobs in the Red list countries but prospective employees can make a research on a recruiting company and if they deem you fit, they all sponsor you.
Please tell them.No be today..they can still employ from the countries but can go to these countries and actively recruit.

UK stopped "active" advertisement of health positions.
It didn't stop recruiting.
Any interested personnel can still apply to individual institutions.

Those English fools will never do such!

These nations like Canada, US, UK, etc, are only good at eye service!

They enjoy the poor leadership and corruption killing Africa! They simply love it!

It makes more money and provides cheap exploitable human capital for their own needs!

A developed and progressive Nigeria or Africa is a taboo to Western nations!

The key word is actively
The opposite is passively
If I say will no longer actively do something I can still do it passively
So a woman can fu ck actively or lie passively like a dead body she is still fuucked

Nigerian youth will understand that one
If a man marries an olosho and she says
"I will no longer do olosho actively"......

They should stay home and do what exactly?!!

They should buy x-ray equipment for their hospitals?!!
Provide uninterrupted power supply?!!
They should provide security?!!
They should create the enabling environment for medical research?!!

They should also pay themselves the acceptable and commensurate salaries or wages?!!

You think doctors and nurses just wake up and decide to leave Nigeria in numbers because they are bored or enjoy being called second class citizens in colonial and opportunistic nations like England?!!

Are the doctors to fix this nation or those embezzling money meant for social services?!

While people are taking INEC to the sword for messing up an electoral process, some of you are busy hailing them...!

Now, you want decent people whose voices can't be heard in national growth to stay back with bigoted never-do-wells and build a nation! How can that work?!!

Interesting that India is not on the list, the PM has Indian ancestry. Very interesting.
India doesn't fall in the category of countries with greater concern captured in the statement of the UK while Nigeria and others are experiencing serious drain of health personnels.

One reason I ain't leaving my country is because these countries can just change policy overnight and send you to the trenches.

For those who have nothing even in naija, then by all means take your chances.

You can't be trained in Nigeria almost free of charge (because u paid chicken fee as tuition fee compared to Europe) without paying back to the Country, but using that knowledge to benefit European countries.


Please, what has Nigeria done to the healthcare sector to make it so vibrant and enterprising that these medics won't even think of leaving?!!

Even if you compel them to stay and practice for 5 years, it still won't keep them from taking off soon after. The 5 years won't improve the healthcare sector if proper investment is not done.
