Their travel for greener pasture in overseas countries will give opportunities to other Nigerians to fill the positions they left behind.

Let all our youths japa so the Chinese can take over this country and turn it to paradise.
In twenty or thirty years time, the japa people and their children will be applying for visas to japada to Naija, this I have seen

Hmm

When you hear nonsense statements like this, know that something will not be done.

More go still japa this year!

Nigerians go explain tried......

raddyworld:
Japa is good but the truth remains that we should face our fears.
If that is how the other developed country did during their challenges will they be anywhere developed today.
Mind you the corruption in Nigeria is perpetrated by Nigerians and not only govt.
Same set of people collect peanut to vote wrong people.
Same corrupt health system.
An example is ekerenadu and the cohort.

since we have refused to face corruption and stand for the truth, anybody that wants to stay and build should stay....if we ain't careful another wasted 8 years is loading....that would be 16 years of waste.....
Note, nigerians are not getting younger.....abeg who fit run make e run o

It’s slowpoke like you that brought down nairaland last month

I remember VIVIDLY when Chris Ngige said the doctors and medical practitioners can go, we have more than enough. Even in drunkenness, one should apply wisdom before talking

I remember vividly... Chris Ngige was a disaster under Buhari.

Despite the fact that he's a doctor, he failed to demonstrate empathy or even show concern for worker's welfare... now the brain drain is more than obvious, even lab techs and nursing assistants are leaving in droves.

There should be a state of emergency declare on 2 sectors in Nigeria if Tinubu is serious about making the country a tad bit better.

- Security
- Power

50% of people leaving the country is not for money exactly, but for simple peace of mind that basic amenities provide

how can I feel safe walking on the street of a foreign country by 3am than my own country, it is almost a suicide mission for a lady to walk alone in the street of say ojeulegba by 9pm

nairalee:

he meant he has more than enough at the national hospital abuja

More than that number will leave this year unless government officials at all level start to see humans as fellow humans with equal rights, accept that they are just holding their positions to serve the people and the masses are not their slaves.

Policy is being put together? LMAO

All the payments that have been approved by this government from wage award to Conhess adjustment, palliative etc hasn't seen the light of day after many months, talkless of this one that hasn't even started.

Deceitful gofament!

Nigerian government doesn't care about them so they went to where they are valued.

It is until we all understand that the problem to Nigeria today are curse by same Nigerians.
We won't move forward.
Pointing fingers to those in power meanwhile some of the are just youth or workers in lower cadre some years.
What about senators from labour party?
Who could have leave a good example, but gave excuses to purchase car worth 160m.
Oga When you get to the top we will know your true nature

I want you to understand something about patriotism. It just leadership by example. That's all. Why should a politician I feed with my tax use same to for medicals abroad whereas the policeman securing him cannot get such. You want me to stay behind because I love my country. You don't wish me well then. Tell your leaders to build standard infrastructures, pay wages as at when due and provide adequate security. People will come back without hesitation.

SoNature:
I tell people that with this Japa syndrome, the West will take all the useful people in this country, leaving us with dregs of society who spend 24/7 online hailing Tinubu and attacking those who criticize this clueless government.

Going by your senseless comment, those who will remain here to criticize Tinubu are also part of the remnants of the so called "dregs of society." Even fuuls sometimes think they are making sense lol

finallybusy:
That’s a small number. Come back when it hits millions.

Simple post you can't read. Some Africans and their lack of reading and comprehension skills will shock you. 🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️

My younger sister left for Canada two months ago

It's not funny

LZAA:
Regulate migration?
😄😄😄
Dey play
Clowns🚶‍♂️

😂😂😂

The US...Canada...UK...Australia are ripping us of our vibrant and educated youths...they are not different from us...what they have are strong institutions which makes everyone fall in line
Give us security
Create rule of law and ways to enforce it..if it can be digitized do it to prevent human manipulation
Create a thriving enviroment for education and skills aquisition
Educate the masses on the need to patronise made in nigetia goods..if the foregners are not satizfied they would set up plants in the country
Reduce cost of governance
Purnish economic saboteurs with the death penalty.
Improve access to credit to drive away loan sharks milking the poor masses

AqualinaXYZ:
Tinubu may God punish you




And every hand that supported you

You see why you'll never prosper

Nigeria is already the 6th most populous country in the World according to World population statistics.

At the rate health workers leave the country in droves to other climes with lesser populations, we have a very big problem at hand.

But our leaders are short-sighted.
I pray God liberates the country from poor leadership.

God bless them for the right choice they made. We go get sense by force.

TruthsFM:
The Registrar, Medical Laboratory Science Council of Nigeria, MLSCN, Tosan Erhabor, on Sunday said a total of 10,697 medical laboratory scientists had left the country.

The Registrar said more than 4,504 medical laboratory scientists left the country in 2023, attributing the migration by medical scientists from the country to different reasons

Erhabor who revealed this to newsmen, added that a policy is being put together by the Federal Ministry of Health to address the problem.

He noted that when launched, the policy would regulate the migration of Nigerian health workers.

The registrar said that the government has reviewed the hazard allowance of health professionals to boost their productivity.

He said, “The total number of medical laboratory scientists that have migrated is 10,697.

“The government is considering reviewing the minimum wage and certain peculiar allowances for health professionals.

“A safe and conducive work environment can be a panacea to reducing the pace of brain drain amongst medical laboratories,” he said.

He continued, “Some are leaving as a result of poor remuneration and uncertainties in their career progression in teaching hospitals.

“Others are leaving in order to study abroad, acquire new skills and enhance their professional status.”

Why not? You Nigerians keep on showing how unperceptive you are.

First the government can simply stop making passports and impose very tough conditions for getting one

Second, the APC is ideologically opposed to out migration of Nigerians. If you doubt this:

1) You don't understand that APC is socialist. Socialist governments believe they OWN you. Soviet Union and East Germany.

2) Go and check Buhari's record as President from 1984. He campaigned against migration

3) All APC supporters on Nairaland hate out migration. It's even likely they're being paid by the party to promote that argument.

4) Nigeria is now a one party Islamic State. They have the power to actually implement what they want.

It's a serious thing. If APC leaders take the decision to block out migration what exactly can ANYONE do about it?

Good Luck to Nigeria.

There's a thread here dedicated for it

The rate of professionals and intellectuals leaving this country is alarming

Registrar should calm down...

When you live in a country that doesn't appreciate anything good.

No conducive environment
No equipment
No good renumeration
No Nothing!!
Medical workers are not happy. Always grumbling. Hardship is biting hard.
Make I de gather my documents.

Proudly MLS.

Oga if you are in Mandela position during Colonial period you would have failed the nation you are representing.
Tell me how you will scrap corruption if you are the president. As if it is easy.
Who fought for end SARS?
Had it been people leave because of excuse you gave now. Can the aim be achieved

We like to deceive ourselves that everything is well with this country.
