The west has structured the world's system of things that way. As long as they gave us the education to acquire so called knowledge, for so long are we going to continue serving them.

Its for the same reason we have crude oil, but import petrol.
The same reason we have football stars and they always end us abroad.
The same reason we have have schools, but always end up abroad to upgrade our certification.
e.t.c.

That's the evolution of slavery. Things are deliberately set up to work that way and there's nothing anybody can do about it, until we change what we call education.

This comment is so uninformed its not even funny. The reason we import petrol is because our refineries hardly work and instead of selling them off we stubbornly hold on to them further impoverishing the people. In addition that bad economic policies by the govt has not helped. When companies like ExxonMobil wanted to build a refinery in Nigeria to refine crude oil the govt would only agree unless they could set the price at which Exxon will sell the petrol (price controls). Thats like the govt telling you the price that you should sell your goods and services instead of letting the market do so. How then are you going to make a profit and compete in he market place? You see how stupid that Is? So blame your leaders for their bad decisions for not creating a condicive environment where businesses abd investments can thrive without bribery and corruption.

Lol. Funny. You've spent your entire life in Nigeria and have the psychological profile of the average Nigerian. What makes you think you will do any better? In fact, a more prudent question is; what makes you think Nigerians will support you in trying to change the status quo? You guys underestimate how much corruption has infected every facet of life in Nigeria

Abi o! How do you change something with the same mindset that created it in the first place?

Typical African.... always playing the victim card and never taking responsibility for anything.

and Dr Wasiu Ayinde.

We will know we are screwed when Dr. Bukola Saraki becomes Nigerian Medical Association President.

Until then, keep calm and patronize agbo sellers.

I am sorry Sir.... But you can make that 38,001 coz of me too.

What do you expect when the best of where we can actually get advanced medical fellowships, residency education and research growth opportunities is beyond the shores of Nigeria and even Africa? What do you expect when our medical institutions are not equipped to battle the illnesses that plague a nation? What do you expect when our medical teams are not drilled enough to be research oriented and dynamically innovative in clinical care and practice? What do you expect when health, just like education, is not given its true place of importance in Nigeria? Don't they know that a healthy nation is a wealthy nation too?

What do you expect when the knowledge being taught and shared at the top echelons in the medical community within Nigeria is not as updated as you will find outside the African shores in the US, UK, Australia, Sweden and even Canada? What do you expect when mediocrity has become the norm among many Nigerian medical institutions today in terms of teaching and some others?



Look, If you want to be the best in terms of global standards, then one must train with the best and learn from the best to be able to stand on the shoulders of giants someday and maybe bring a good part of that learning experience and expertise home to Nigeria. And where exactly is the best? Sadly it is in the western world a small part of the eastern with the likes of The US, Sweden, Australia, Canada, UK, Germany, China PR, Etc leading the way




But is Nigeria ready for a true medical revolution? Where the conventional gives way for the unconventional? Selah.

How exactly? Who is enslaving who? Which kind if education are you talking about?

Saddening!
Btw I am really glad Nigeria is liberalising Higher Education. We now have a Private University in Lagos only committed to Medicine, a Private University in Tinapa to focus on Marine/Naval Archi/Ship Building-this is definitely the way to go.

If we can't maximally fund education and research then we should allow the private bodies take up that responsibility-it is a Win-Win for Nigeria; More Jobs, More NGO funding on Research, More spaces for students in Nigeria.
and a state university committed to medicine

It's you that's not taking responsibility, you don't even know what's at stake. Indeed,I want us to take control of our destiny in it's entirety. If I was the only African I will control white people and no African would have to travel outside of Africa.
