HealthRe: Aggrieved Nigerian Doctor Exposes Rot In Nigeria's Medical System With Tweets by obamd:
This is not exactly news, it's been on for a very long time.
Every 20-30yrs, there's usually an exodus of skilled Medical workers out of Nigeria.

It was once Saudi Arabia, and Nigerian doctors made so much money then. They came back and bought houses in Ikeja GRA, ikoyi and many other investments.

This time, it's the worst exodus that has ever happened. Like someone else said, one day people will go to hospitals and won't find doctors anymore.

Last November, 150 Nigerian doctors wrote the UK medical licencing exam (PLAB), this march, there were 400. By November, there will be at least a thousand. Meanwhile, we churn out just about a thousand doctors from our medical schools yearly so you might argue that the impact won't be felt but hey... The good guys have left.
These figures exclude those who've
So there's a list of countries Nigerian doctors are going to.. UK, USA, Australia, Canada, Qatar, Germany, Saudi Arabia, UAE.
Basically, anywhere outside this country is just fine.

I don't think there's an immediate solution as the government can't afford to pay the kind of money the doctors get paid outside here.

Besides finaincial gratification, there's a better Career progression, better opportunities for research, and a generally better quality of life. You can have brain space to do more productive thinking other than buying fuel for generator and difficulty in doing business.

As we speak, it is easier for a Nigerian doctor to get residency placement in the UK and USA than in Nigeria. As a matter of fact, there's nothing like Merit in the recruitment process.

Way forward, there's need to reform some sectors in Nigeria. Even if everything collapses, Education and health shouldn't chash.

God bless Nigeria

HealthRe: Health Minister Denies Knowledge Of HIV Cure By Professor by obamd: 7:50am On Feb 03, 2017
Sir, it is VERY IMPOSSIBLE to find the cure for HIV and not receive a Nobel prize at the every least.

Ablaka's was a false claim. A simple Google search will explain. This is Science, your results must be evidence based and reproducible.


HungerBAD:
A certain Medical Doctor some years ago claimed he had gotten the cure for HIV.

Sadly,that Medical Doctor now sells pure water in Abuja now,called Abalaka water.

Hope Maduike is not planning on starting his own pure water business?
HealthRe: Health Minister Denies Knowledge Of HIV Cure By Professor by obamd: 7:46am On Feb 03, 2017
If he claims to have found the cure, the institute of medical research will test and run many clinical trials before making pronouncements.

We're not saying he hasn't found the cure but there are laid down rules on how these things are done.

In other climes, scientists don't even mention anything about their discoveries until they've completed clinical trials.

Here we run straight to the media once we turn water to wine.
EducationRe: Maduike Ezeibe Discovers Cure For HIV/AIDS (Michael Okpara University Professor) by obamd:
Every now and again, someone comes up with claims that he's found the cure for HIV.

This is Science, we don't just speak anyhow without facts and data. Your results must be reproducible. For drugs, they must be safe first of all. We are not politicians, the media is not the first place to share results of your experiments.

There are procedures to substantiating and verifying claims. There is a Nigerian Institute of Medical research that has to confirm these things.

Nobody is stealing your credit, just speak through the right channel.
