The Guy is from Abia State and his Governor is the most clueless amongst all the Eastern Governors

Cognitivereason:
U forgot to include Benue state

BigDolph:
Nigeria Governors and over head bridge are like rice and stew.

KingDash:
you better believe it.

KingDash:
bros I no be babalawo.. but ritual dey.

Hed0nist:
With this same mindset, anyone who was trained in the Nigerian public system should not be allowed to japa. Why? Cos they didn’t go into the same pit of debt their foreign counterparts went into.

Make una de hear una self sometimes.

kowalsky:
Lol. Typical Nigerian with warped sense of reasoning and poverty induced mental slavery.
Contrary to that misinformed minister's claim. Nigeria is not the only country where education is free. Germany. Sweden. Finland to mention but a few offer free education to their citizens up to the post graduate level.

America is not the only the developed nation out there. And even then you can't compare the quality of education at an American University to the piss poor, overly cramped, one microscope to 50 students campuses we have in Nigeria.

And no, the child of a Janitor is not cursed to follow in his father's footsteps because unlike you bastards in this country who subjugate uneducated workers, Janitors in America probably earn more than your father and his neutered kin have ever made in their lives. I'm not even kidding https://www.indeed.com/career/janitor/salaries

Stop being a child of hate and mediocrity. Stop being a fool who dances to the whimsical tunes of crass politicians. Stop being a daft, easily manipulated bastard.

alphaNomega:
They cannot afford it! The money they use is stolen from the public purse. Money that should have been used for the public.

How much do they earn?

Lol. "Because they can afford it ..."

See your head

oldtruth:
It is better you think or read twice before saying anything. "Given all the choice hostels"... Are you sure you ever schooled in the country? Can we have an idea of your "choice" hostels? Which system are you talking about here? The same system that ill-treat the said students with lack of basic amenities? Or which system?

Your own case is entirely different

Fahdiga:
While some people in their 40s are here shouting sai Baba and constituting nuisance on nairaland. Soludo should quit talking and start assembling his team asap

I know where you're going but it's not the right time to tribalistic.

Charmingrascal:
Drama mirrors the society.
It is what is happening around that are used for movie plotting

lomprico:
do the gods print naira notes?

I don't really get this money ritual thing.

OBALOLA55:
AS A MUSLIM, ARE YOU SUPPOSE TO BELIEVE IN IDOL WORSHIPPING

blowjohn:
Why didn't he tell us how much it is to read mass communication ( 5 thousand dollars to 79 thousand dollars) theatre arts or even sociology in the UK and lets see if its not still expensive so that we also tell those studying such courses to also prepare to stay 9years before leaving the country for greener pastures

Theunbothered:
But how does that solve the doctor shortage
?

All this does is make an even bigger problem worse

At this point I'm not going to reply anymore because you clearly lack the mental faculties for this topic.

Theunbothered:
Doctors who have been in the profession for decades are leaving.

All those interviewed at the Saudi recruitment centre were old men.

Far too many people on this forum have brains but refuse to use them.

benuejosh:
Things Yahoo boys have caused

Theunbothered:
Cost of education has nothing to do with wages.

Wages are a function of how much you value their work and clearly health workers in Nigeria are not valued so they leave.

This simple concept is what you can't understand.



How will this measure solve the doctor shortage?

You are just letting emotions overtake whatever small sense you have.

Theunbothered:
Because there is debt in the market US you want to replicate it?

What is the salary of an average doctor in the US compared to Nigeria, then we will talk properly.

Until then you're just talking emotional nonsense.

ogatittus:
Do you know how much they are paid during residency? It can cover such costs. Nigerians also spend money to get there as well....it’s not like USMLE, PLAB or even MCCQE1 is free or something...some of these exams that the students abroad don’t write (apart from USMLE) Just so you know, a Nigerian planning to relocate to Cananda will spend over 900k to write the MCCQE 2...and it’s not like when they write these exams, it is guaranteed they’ll pass at once o.

Theunbothered:
Are you dumb or can't read?

Do you understand the reason doctors want to run away in the first place?

Do you think this will help solve the doctor shortage in the country?

Please you foolish people shouldn't come into my mentions saying nonsense.

No actual plans just emotional measures meant to punish doctors.

Angelfrost:
Yes, they leave because they wish to earn more and live better lives... I never disagreed with Ngige!

So, my question persists??! Why can't all political appointees be compelled in the same vein to strictly use all medical facilities in the nation and be banned from traveling to access health care??!... If our well trained doctors must remain here for a number of years to give back, why can't politicians and political office holders be compelled to ensure they and their families are treated solely by these doctors within the hospitals here??!

These are the issues! You can't separate them!!!

ogatittus:
Nigerian medical students also have the opportunity to take loans. In Niger Delta University, Amassoma, students pay as much as N200,000. They can take a loan and when they start working the government takes it back in bits from their salary. I know, for some people, N200,000 is small money compared to the big big school fees people pay overseas but it is commensurate to what you get - bad classrooms, 8 to 9+ years in school e.t.c Somebody will enter school at 18 and graduate at 31...our mates abroad don’t experience such.

Angelfrost:
So, why do the same government fail to strictly use the health care facilities within the nation starting from Mr. President??!

Why should Nigerian leaders earn fat off the country and travel abroad for health checks and treatments??!...

oldtruth:
Wow! So, what is your point? Are you saying Nigeria is better?

You honestly why some Nigerians are like this? Someone who sat down in his stupid cubicle and be writing epistle of RUBBISH.

How many children of a janitor do you see that are out of school in a sne clime like the US?

Yes, they collect loan for schooling and that is a very good way to ease the parents but that doesn't mean they can't afford it. It all depends where the child wants to school.

Yes, there are heless people globally but in most cases in a sane clime, it is hardly poverty. It might be drug abuse, illegal immigration and the rest.

Comparing a saner clime education system to this country makes you sound somehow.

Angelfrost:
You are majoring on minor and mundane things, leaving out the main issues...

What stops the leaders from stepping up and upgrading the nation's health care sector to the level abroad??! Why pay political appointees 10 times more than senior health workers??! Did our senators and ministers pay far more while schooling in Nigeria??!
Is it not more sensible and leadership worthy to address the root cause of such migration of skills rather than looking for excuses to justify your poor leadership!

Mind you, I don't disagree wholly with Ngige's point, but it is moot compared to the pressing issue of poor allocation and investments in this nation's health and education sectors...

I would expect a learned person to be smart enough to dissect issues beyond party affiliations and ethnicity!!! This is why Nigeria remains behind globally!

Theunbothered:
I am resisting the urge to insult you right now but let me just say this.

Serving your fatherland isn't slavery, pay doctors and they won't leave, it is that simple.

If all the doctors leave who do you think will suffer, us or them?

These foolish politicians run abroad whenever they get simple ear ache while poverty stricken supporters on nairaland will support them when they don't even have a primary health care center in their local government.

Stop thinking like a primary school child.



You just wrote a wall of nonsense.

Will you work for 6 months without salary?

My tuition cost millions and you want me to work for uncertain chicken change.

Who do you think will suffer if all the professionals leave because idiots want to force them to work?
