These men and women are not lost, they are rather on higher or advanced training that the Nigerian government may not afford. In due time when brilliant and patriotic leaders are in charge and are ready to take the bills, these doctors will return to Nigeria,better trained, exposed and capable.

It's not easy working as a Doctor in Nigeria, work condition is very poor. They have it better than most other professions, just look at what is happening to our educational system today.

No worries, brothers and sisters, Bulhari and Th1efnubu are working, everything is going exactly according to their plan (to fvck Nigeria up as much as they can).

Lol brain drain isn't something that is going to stop anytime soon in Nigeria

Nah only doctors.

Jman06:
Waivers should be granted to all federal healthcare institutions to replace health workers continuously as they leave. The japa syndrome isn't something that can be stopped as long as Nigeria remains a third world country. In fact, japa should even be encouraged as a way to improve our foreign exchange and transfer medical knowledge and techniques from foreign to local health institutions.

Government hospitals should have offices where qualified healthcare professionals and doctors can easily go and submit their CVs and be considered for available jobs without long protocols. Also, remuneration and work environment should be improved.

Shikena!

If the ones there leave, they simply dust up the CV in the drawer and invite other applicants without long bureaucracies.

But can those in Government think along that line? No.

You cannot be a serious person

Hay, am just keeping it positive.

Besides, when they feel homesick, they would return with first world medical practice experience.

but these people wont be employed as doctors abroad!most of them would be on oddjobs!!

Friends Jesus Christ loves y'all and he want you to accept him as your personal lord and saviour by giving your life to Christ, believing in him and repenting of your sins.remember tomorrow might be too late. Shalom

15,000 to 16,000. So, no accurate figure?

Nigeria Lost 16,000 Doctors In Five Years - Minister

Nigeria did not lose 16,000 Doctors. The Doctors voted with their feet to reject being paid peanuts in Nigeria and being forced to work with outdated insufficient equipment.
