Very useless govt, this is clearly another way to siphon money, why get foreigners to do the job our doctors are already professionals for, why not increase the salary of our medical staffs and fly them abroad for courses and seminars if the need arise. Na so we go begin hear billions and trillions for this project.
You should be ashamed of yourself.

Go back and read what he said!

Don't mind that one, despite being a medical doctor he was still yarning dust. All he knows is how to scatter things. Same way he dealt childishly with ASUU, causing a very long strike.

Madness!!! You haven't paid the ones we have here properly, you are looking for those in abroad. It is only a doctor that is sick in the head that will want to come back to hell.

There should bw a law that will ban doctors anɗ Nurses who attended State and FG universities from traveling out if they have no work for 12 years in Nigeria.

You study medicine in Nigeria, pay cheap school fees cause it has been subsidise by the Govt and then leave Nigeria Govt job for a better pay abroad.

If you are not comfortable with the law, go study medicine for abroad
Idiot! Why don't you go and study medicine or are you too dull.
Eleribu!

Stupid government, they’re going to employ our our foreign base doctors at high rate back into our almost dead health care system they were running away from, they should have tried to revive the health care system before bringing in professional, clueless government always being careless with tax payers money

As cheap as it is, medicine is arguably the most expensive programme in Nigerian federal universities or when you say it's cheap, does it mean they pay #30k minimum wage for school fees? Does the government supply them every needed material for their studies? Do I need to talk about 6 years MBBS program becoming 8 years and is that what you meant by cheapness?

Medicine is nominally cheap, but the psychological costs would make any Nigerian to leave the system.

Why don't you hold down the ones still at home first, so those outside can see your sincerity...

Do these APC people think, when people sell all their properties and leave do you think it's a sudden thought?, those guys won't comeback unless you fix things...



Oh smartypants educate me pwess embarassed
Aren't you the one off point, they are focusing on those who have already left and have probably been engaged by foriegn establishments, the fact is if our doctors weren't good enough just the way they are those countries won't accept them, so all these conversion of drain to gain is BS, we make competent doctors already, paying those guys that left, just to teach Those that stayed is waste.

Focus on those who stayed!!!
It's obvious he never said they were going to bring back those who left. He said they are creating ways to engage them from the places they've gone to.

Now that you've read you're changing mouth.

In any case, it is obvious Nigeria cannot pay doctors the way the UK can so there is nothing the government can do to stop brain drain. Doctors are already probably the highest-paid class of government employees by sector (not by rank or organization), aren't they? People will move if they see better opportunities regardless.

My point was, they didn't mention anything of benefits to those who stayed, and that's my grouse, I just had to elaborate.

This is similar to the case of crude oil and Petroleum, you never appreciate the resources at your disposal until It is refined.

Then it’s been sold back to you at a premium.

Good morning. Pls can i ask a question. Do u tink radio presenters earn good pay. Am just asking cus i want to become an Oap. Sorry for disturbing
Sweetplum:
Mad govt. I listened to the radio this morning. Two lamentations.
1. From impending resident doctors strike
2. From a state that has bad road and the gov is giving lamba left right and centre. At times, he ll claim na FG get the road.
The country ll rotate to a point where nothing works again and we all explode into anything, war, crisis etc.

you should enact laws banning or politicians for medical trips abroad and their children from attending foreign schools, you have not seen nothing yet, idiots. You reap whatever you sow, in ten years time even vulcanizers will not be seen, neither carpenters nor brick layers, You idiot politicians will get sense by force, bastards

Ban them as per ? On what right do u have to ban them?? Did they sign agreement to serve u aside NYSC?? Did they sign any undertaken that they must practice medicine in Nigeria??

Are they the only professionals sponsored with tax payers money?? Engineers, accounting, law and others nko?
