God bless them.


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.

Stop sounding dumb... Fist question u should ask urself is, y are uk docs not leaving their country for naija.

How about the UK Embassy, won't they have an increase amount of Visas rejections now?.

emperorlaqrin:

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.

amerengues:


Kenya is on Amber list. Their legs are shaking. By the way, UK still recruits from Nigeria 💯 provided it's not via recruitment agency route

UK DONT BEND RULES, ONCE THEY BLOCK YOU, YOU ARE BLOCKED.


HOLD APC ESPONSIBLE.


THEY ARE EVEN MAKING LAW TO BAN DOCTORS LIVING NIGERIA.


AS IF THE TRAINING NA FREE OR GOVERNEMNT PAY.



BASTARDS!

nonsense. But they want the African countries tuition fees

WHEN WILL THEY MAKE LAW TO BAN BUHARI AND POLITICIANS, GOING TO SPEND NIGERIA MONEY IN UK HOSPITAL, SO NIGERIAN DOCTORS CAN EARN THAT MONEY?

No India and Pakistan? These people na real coded people. No like our toothless barking bull dog we have as leaders.

India has the best doctors and curative medicine in the world.

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 or 3) indeed the interpretation of “and” in the constitution as regards Abuja.

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 a liar and a thief. 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 and truly understand the language and addressing those who have a simplistic rudimentary, incomplete or naive comprehension of the language.

To same us of time, just day UK stop all African and Asian countries from applying for health job.

I guess you only read the headline.
The headline is fake.
UK stopped "active" advertisement of health positions.
It didn't stop recruiting.
Any interested personnel can still apply to individual institutions.

Bro dont kid urself how many schools have the ability to perform a heart surgery or preserve a forensic evidence for future use. Have you ever heard that the federal government purchased a number of equipments for experiment for different universities

Hmmm.

This is good news. UK is not helping matters too. They have been indicted of enslaving Nigerian doctors.

5 Years Before Going Abroad Doctors Bill: A Clinical Stitch In Time

Nigeria's House of Representatives in its tweet on 6 April, announced that a bill sponsored by Rep Ganiyu Abiodun Johnson to prevent Nigerian-trained medical or dental practitioners from being granted full licences until they have worked for a minimum of five years in the country has passed second reading at the Nigerian House of Representatives https://twitter.com/HouseNGR/status/1643996023885533184?s=20

My First Reaction

At last! It came late since I wrote to recommend that this law be passed for years now but it is still better it is coming this late than never. I support this bill be passed as law and the President must quickly assent to the law for immediate implementation and subsequent domestication by every state of the federation .

Cuba has such a law and it worked for all government-trained doctors as they require official persmission to relocate overseas after being trained by the Cuban government https://www.reuters.com/article/us-cuba-usa-migrants-healthcare-idUSKBN0TK58B20151201

The unregulated exit of Nigerian government-trained doctors here in our country has almost crashed the system yet there are several reports and complaints that they are being enslaved overseas. 

https://punchng.com/nigerian-doctors-in-uk-lament-exploitation-slave-labour/


Will The Law Be Effective?

The way the law will be effective is to delay the process from when medical induction oath taking takes place to when you recieve provisional and full permanent medical license to practice as a medical doctor.

All travels by those set of doctors covered by the law will be required to get official permission from the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF) for travel within that period and the list to be shared with the Legislature and Immigration service on a periodic basis.

The law will make defaulters who flout the 5-year moratorium liable to conviction if they leave Nigeria to permanently reside and transfer their tax-expense acquired skillset to a foreign country before 5 years.

Anyone still doubting if this law will work should ask any professional this rhethorical question : You do not want a criminal record as a professional or would you want to be prosecuted?

The ship has set sail and the rest of the loose ends will be sorted out even though I suggest that this law be accelerated.


What Are Nigerians Saying?

There are two courts in the land, the more powerful one is the court of public opinion in the scheme of sociological perspectives.

Those who ignore the power of public opinion later realised too late.

There are some erstwhile powerful trade unions that underestimated the power of public opinion and today not enjoying the public sympathy.

That is why I am staying on the fundamental and basic question of "Must the taxpayers lose on all sides?" I am not about 'whataboutism'.

Like this problem of young doctors leaving immediately after training which remained unaddressed until now, I believe that one day, the issue of paying huge subsidies on petrol and electricity to only a set of Nigerians while millions of other Nigerians without roads and electricity have no equivalent subsidy yet forced by the system to pickup the social cost and burden of the debt and fiscal capture of state resources for a privileged compatriots will get to this level of national bill too.

Everyone of those with elitist education seem to want to take advantage of the system and when you ask them a basic question on why should a tax payer train you and when you finish your training you immediately take your skill to another country, what I recieve are cocky answers telling me "whatabout" so so so and so in response.

To make it mandatory for young medical doctors to stay back at least 5 years after being trained with tax payers money is not too much to ask from you if you attend government universities where your education was heavily subsidized.

Right Family Values On Decline.

Parents who scatter their homes and raise children who grow up to run far away from home are on trial as well. It is not just the young professionals using the japa syndrome as smokescreen.

It is abnormal and dysfunctional for a young man and/or woman to finish school and immediately want to move several thousand kilometres away from his parents and deny those who trained him of his skill. It is against natural justice and these young professionals will lose.

In my opinion, this law asking them to stay will turn out to be a blessing in disguise for them.

The doctors are not slaves, they can choose not work if they do desire. The can choose what to do with their lives. This is forced labour and it is archaic. Well you are an APC supporter so I don't expect you to have empathy and common sense

After they have harvested all the good hands and left us with the quota doctors and quota health practitioners of northern origin....

90% of our competent doctors have gone except those who own their own hospitals.

Just about 10,000 doctors are left in Nigeria. Those in UK are doing slave labour!

Nigerian youth are lazy and illiterate
They cannot read anything longer than a text message

No active recruitment does not mean no recruitment. The nationals of those countries can still apply if they find vacancies. Also, if a medical practitioner/nurse etc comes to the UK on postgraduate course, they can still be recruited. Unfortunately, due to labour laws and anti-discriinatory laws, the UK cannot ban Nigerians from working as health workers unless it is a blanket ban on foreign workers.

nairalanda1:


Canada is even very funny.

The thing is they need doctors, yet they come and say that you must pass their exams, and when you do, you must pass provincial licensing exams, and when you do that, dem go keep you waiting long self.

If you want to be a doctor in Canada, just go and enroll as a medical student first, and graduate with Canadian degrees.

THATS VERY TRUE EVEN IF YOU ARE A CONSULTANT IN NAIJA U MUST PASS THRU THEIR MEDICAL SCHOOL OF md and clinical rotations before residency

You left the substance of the issue and went for insult. The taxpayers have been enslaved by subsidizing their education for so long and it not too much to ask that they fulfil their obligation to the taxpayers. If your parents are rich and successful, nothing stops them from sending you overseas so we can subsidize those who can give back to the tax payers.

Wodu89:



Stay home and develop your country is the message. Honestly the health care sector in Nigeria needs serious work

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?!!

Imagine the poaching.

Nigeria is just stupid. You will train doctors for yrs. You won't even put at least mandatory service on them for a period of two decade were you should recruiter your investment.

You will just let them go immediately they finish. Is that not stupidity.

This shamelss doctors will use Nigerian schools to raise themselves from primary to university and will wake up one morning g to insult the same institution.

When you papa no get money send you abroad you manage Nigeria.

After eight years of supporting the evil government headed by the clown of a president, the dead Vulture Meat Griller above me registered for a part-time health course so he can travel to UK.
Now the same UK has blocked his only chance to travel out of his shit-hole country.

Well, now he has no choice. You'd soon see him spamming threads with Amoda Sangolere, Tinubu posts so that he can continue to earn a miserly 30K a month before tax.

The vulture griller studied crop science but his country could not give him a job. Rather, he went into dead meat suya business and supporting the evil government as a side hustle.
