The hate for Africa is Real. 98 percent of the countries there is Africa. If it's to exploit our natural and mineral resources now, you will see them. Ndi Ala!!!

On the contrary, the UK wants African countries to keep their doctors so that they can benefit Africa, not the UK.

Hence the ban on active recruitment.

It's sad that the western world gives medical aids to Africa yet "takes" their medical personnel. Who's to blame? The Europeans and Americans that employ skilled people (who willingly applied) to serve their countries or the doctors that leave their home countries after getting trained by their local institutions in search of greener pastures?


We should make a better environment back here, so make sure the Doctors want to stay..

If Nigeria looked like Wakanda, do you think anyone would want to leave?? smiley

its about the naira strength.. even if Nigeria was developed but its currency was rubbish, people will still leave.

wakanda is a fictional thing so stop using it as example, some parts of Nigeria are as developed as some developed countries.

Money is not the major reason most of our Doctors and Nurses relocated to UK, some gone because of lack of medical facilities to practice.

This is not a new news, it has been in law.

The NHS does not actively recruit from Nigeria

As long as a Nigerian doctors passes all required exams, he or she can apply for a job in the Uk.

This does not break the rules.

This is a case study.

A nurse or doctor from Nigeria applies to work in the NHS unassisted. He is interviewed by the trust and deemed successful for the post, subsequently travelling to the UK on receipt of his visa. This activity did not include any active recruitment therefore does not contravene the code of practice


All Nigerian doctors fall in this category of the case study.

Thank you for this information jare. Nigerians wey dey rush enter UK like soldier ants, na im somebody dey carry rubbish for head like gala?

Better, all doctors to his/her own country.

When I become the president, I'll ban all doctors, nurses, engineers, programmers and scientists from relocating from the country. They are free to go on vacations.
And you will never become a president by the power that created this day

Wakanda was just an example and a good example at that.

Weak currency is irrelevant. If Nigeria was very developed with good infrastructure, no one would think about leaving.. Look at middle eastern countries, they have oil dependent economies which don't always have the best job availability or currencies. But their people aren't leaving those countries except to go on holiday.

A former Nigerian minister of health told Nigerian doctors that they can go into farming because they're too many for the system and are not needed. I don't see the rationale for restricting doctors or any other professional from offering their services to places where they are required.

Well, we have a scarcity of doctors and nurses here...

You can keep medics here , if you allow hospitals to be run at a profit...or if we raise our tax to gdp ratio , and remove subsides so that more money flows into the country.... But since we are so poor...

I don't even know what to say to you.

Not until you spend your life savings training your son to become a doctor until he graduates after 6-8years of intensive medical training, only to find out that there are no quality jobs for him to even take care of you at old age.

Then, you will even be the one to encourage him to leave the country.

those countries have population of 3 million and their GDP is about $400billion annually..

the UAE has an annual GDP of $354billion and 1.4million indigenes.

$354billion divided by 1.4 million is equal to $252,857 per year for one indigene only. that's ₦96,401,731 per year for one person..

if you were earning ₦96,401,731 per year in Nigeria will you ever leave Nigeria

Very good news, 200 million population and growing and you are happy oyinbos are taking all your doctors and nurses. That is basically the height of stupidity and suffering from a colonial mindset, not everything is about money think about the welfare of your people for a change.

I have been fortunate enough to travel, once economies reach a certain level of development. About $10,000 - $15,000 USD per capita people are content and happy.

Malaysia is a great example, it isn't fabulously wealthy, but most Malays are content.

It doesn't take much, Just good infrastructure like consistent electricity, clean water and gas supplies will do most of the work. Good Roads, Ok Railways and Good airports would finish the job.

People will do the rest..

That's why I don't understand our leaders, this is all they have to do..

The extras like good schools and universities are hard to do, but I am sure the Nigerian population would manage this.

Actively recruitment: when a UK job agency advertises job opportunities in the health sectors in Nigeria and also help and support health professionals to find jobs and also process their applications in the Uk.

What NHS is saying

What the NHS is saying is that recruitment agencies for doctors and nurses in the UK can not advertise or run recruitment fairs in Nigeria. They can not support doctors or nurses with their job applications because it is like recruiting them for a job.

Nigerian health professionals need to directly find for jobs for themselves in the Uk, without the help of Recruitment agencies.

In other word, The NHS does not actively recruit from Nigeria but a doctor can apply directly to any employer who need his or her services

As long as a Nigerian doctors passes all required exams, he or she can apply for a job in the Uk. It doesn't break the rules.

This is a case study that doesn't break the rules

A nurse or doctor from Nigeria applies to work in the NHS unassisted. He is interviewed by the trust and deemed successful for the post, subsequently travelling to the UK on receipt of his visa. This activity did not include any active recruitment therefore does not contravene the code of practice

An agency runs a recruitment fair in Nigeria highlighting opportunities in the UK. Nigeria is on the list and should not be actively targeted for recruitment. The agency does not actually hire anyone. This would still be deemed active recruitment and contravenes the guiding principles within the code of practice.
Well said, I think this came on the back of the Uber ruling!

Why cant black people develop their continent and stop running from pillar to post
How many white men are in Africa for hustling?? In Europe and USA Nigerians are there constituting nuisance.
In the law of creation, black man is created to serve the white people.
We do not produce anything. We are only good at speaking grammar
Today, the whites are in mars while the black people are busy talking politics on how to steal
The clueless black leaders are to blame.

There are several poor countries that make their health system work well. A good example is Cuba. If Nigeria makes healthcare a top priority then we can make it work too. If we prioritize healthcare in this country no doctors would be leaving.

Cuba pays its doctors very low salaries and spends more on preventive health.

They also export their doctors to earn forex for the country and take most of their salaries
