Life is much cheaper in Nigeria than in the United States, so I feel it's unfair to compare what Nigérian doctors earn here to what US doctors are paid.

For instance, our annual rent in Nigeria is equal one month rent in America. However, that doesn't mean that they shouldn't be paid a little higher than what they are paid now.

Salaries are quoted monthly in Nigeria and Yearly abroad, so what is the big deal herehuh someone who was earning 3.6m in Nigeria now earning 100m to 200m in the USA, after all his bills will still save about 30 % of it. Can that be regarded as slaveryhuh

The foolish American guy does not realize that the average American-trained doctor has 300k to 500k usd in student loans, while the Nigeria man paid less than 200k naira for all his university fees.

is comprehension hard for youhuh

Very untrue.


Currently you need 3m+ to graduate as a doctor.

That 3m covers your fees, accomodation, food and other unforseen expenses from year 1 to 6.
