it is not every doctor that is a surgeon bro

Jayslicky:
Nigeria has enough doctors!!! Is this man high on some drugs? The number of doctors to patient is 1 to 1200.

Many people have lost their lifes due to the few number of medical practioners we have, the government should rather find a way to improve doctors salaries and provide essential equipment for their work instead of acting unconcerned, the truth is Nigerian doctors are well appreciated abroad.

Hon. Minister

Cityfirstborn:
Only those who are sentimental will not agree with him..we need more health institutions..There are plenty doctors, Even to get placements for residency is war. Why will over 2, ooo apply for a vacancy of less than 50 if there are no surplus

XTHRONE:
Nice idea, I never thought of this, go to villages or communities their so called health centres are eye sore, shadow of it self, non is equipped, but then how this villagers manage to be healthy irrespective of not having access to a good hospital Marvels me, they live longer and stronger with little or no patronage to those death trap cottages called health centres.

what kind of weed is he smoking. statements like this just shows what a dark soul he is

Chartey:
It's because you've never stayed in a village.
If you see the kind of horrible cases that come to the hospital from villages you won't say this.
Most of the terrible cases you'll see in the hospital come from villages because they waste time with alternative treatments before they finally seek medical care at the brink of death or permanent disability.

Nollyzonenews:
The Minister of Labour and Employment, Dr. Chris Ngige, says doctors who feel they want to relocate in search of greener pastures are free to do so as the nation has enough medical personnel.

Ngige said this on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily on Wednesday. 
The minister was responding to a question on brain drain and the deliberate recruitment of Nigerian doctors by foreign embassies in Nigeria to the detriment of the nation’s health sector.

In his response, however, Ngige, who is also a medical doctor, said there was nothing wrong with doctors leaving the country as they would continue to send foreign exchange home which could, in turn, grow the economy.

He said, “No, I am not worried (about doctors leaving the country). We have surplus. If you have surplus, you export. It happened some years ago here. I was taught chemistry and biology by Indian teachers in my secondary school days.

ogbonti:
why wont he say so?

His party the APC has successfully rigged the presidential election. The only (feeble) resistance to them being in power for the next 50 Months at least, is Atiku's petition at the tribunal. He and his master Buhari care less if there are doctors for the average Nigeria because if they have common skin rash, they leave for the UK or USA to treat themselves, leaving everyone else in Nigeria to fend for themselves when they have catastrophic health challenges
This is not an issue of party at all but an individual that is not telling truth.
Awon Zombies, you see una life?

martineverest:
it's only few people that understands will support the minister.....the remittance of Nigerians in diaspora is really helping our economy.

Nigeria actually have the highest concentration of doctors in the world,while many are unemployed,it's better they seek jobs abroad
