bro the PLAB exam is the surest for Nigerian doctors and that's what most of us write now, 4 of my colleagues are already there and me and other colleagues are planning to go to uk.America route is quite difficult to embark as a doctor because it is expensive but PLAB exam is quite affordable.
Guy u are not looking at the big picture,the implications of the matured doctors leaving would leave a lacunae in the health sector because medical practices comes with experience,which u learn from older colleagues.
even those yet to graduate from medical school are already preparing to leave immediately they graduate,do their horsemanship and NYSC

I guess UK is much easier, I also wonder how much they get paid just out of curiosity. But seriously are there even job openings for all these guys threatening to leave Nigeria for the UK?

EVILFOREST:
No u didn't get me.
Nursing/Medical assistant Jobs are genuine jobs like I said.
Check me write up again.
I mean those who sleep with old ladies and operate as male prostitutes...do so to get their genuine resident permit (green cards).
People even endulge in fraudulent marriages to get papers.
Why did he choose to work as a nurse assistant when he could also work as a medical assistant....especially for a medical doctor...??
I'm happy u sound knowledgeable in this, but do you still advise that, that medical doctor goes to Nigeria ....? especially if he's an immigrant...??

Thats a good question, i think the guy just gave up, he's an elderly man probably in his early 60's now. Medical assistant is probably another 7 months course while nursing would've been 2-4years depending on how many credits gets transferred over and whether he goes for an associate or bachelor's degree. The man just gave up, they really frustrated him and i've heard the same story about many other people. But anyone's case might be different, its always wise to have a plan B, also knowing important people from teaching hospitals will boost your chance.

heil buhari, the saviour who will take Nigeria out of recession, our greatest president of all time. From N360 to N359.5, that's exactly 50kobo or 0.0014% Jajajaja I laugh in spanish
Just wait until the summer month is over, oil prices will fall, what then will happen to our currency?

EVILFOREST:
I agree that they work so hard and pay taxes.
They also reap the benefits of quality taxation.
That's why they term us lazy.
Those who WIPE OLD FOLKS BUTTS as well as operate as Gigolos, do not have genuine papers.
Most are non-immigrants. (the illegal ones) who came to the US via student visa/ visitors visa and have refused to go back.
These are the ones chased by TRUMP on daily basis.
As long as you have ur papers, a fairly good job is guaranteed.

Lol, i'm not sure who fed you those lies. Nursing assistants have to get training, get finger printed and then take a state board exam. You must have a secondary school cert or High school diploma, a social security card, green card or work authorization. So no, they are not illegal immigrants, these are people with papers. The same ones you see on instagram living fake lives or the ones you see on christmas holidays flaunting money while vacationing in Nigeria. Having your papers intact doesn't guarantee you a good job, you can have your papers and still work as a security guard or at a fast food restaurant, it only makes it easier to get a degree and move up the income scale.

Your type will never take up an uncertain challenges due to fear of failure..
U said u know about ur church member that failed to realise his dream, lemme tell you my two blood sisters are now nurses abroad, one in Germany, if you know what it takes to obtain a German language certificate talk more of practicing but she made it as the only African nurse in her district, second one is still completing her studies in USA, then I know two Doctors in USA lavishly living their dreams..

Ur church member might not actually actualize his dream but believe me atleast his giving his children the live and the level playing ground in the world stage while u sit here n consider him failure..

We are talking about doctors and you are talking about nursing. There is even a shortage of nurses in the U.S and so many Africans, Caribbeans and Filipinos go into nursing. I even know Nigerians who studied nursing in Nigeria and they were recruited by staffing agencies in the U.S when the shortage was very severe. Two different things here. The guy didn't travel overseas for the welfare of his children, they were grown, one of his daughters is also a medical doctor. They won the visa lottery and all had green cards, no need for fake marriages and all that. He thought it would be easy transitioning from Nigeria to America but after several years of trying, he gave up on his dream of practicing as a medical doctor in the U.S. If anyone wants to try their luck, they are very much welcomed to do so, but all these misguided Nigerian doctors threatening to flee Nigeria for greener pastures are on for a rude awakening.

EVILFOREST:
I couldn't wait to read through your entire write up.
A NIGERIAN MEDICAL DOCTOR working as a NURSE assistant is even better paid, more secured and also has a better future for his kids than your LOCAL GOVERNMENT CHAIRMAN and the CMDs of Federal teaching Hospitals, provided the CMD doesn't loot public funds.
Imagine when such now works as a medical doctor, he is.

Have you ever asked someone what the MINIMUM WAGE of the USA is like..??
Don't always rush to type, verify things OK.
U sound like a GRADUATE as well as a sound one....try and verify why people seek to be in the US.

THANK U

There's nothing to verify with anyone, I know what i'm talking about. The highest paid nursing assistants or nursing attendants are in the north eastern states of new york and new jersey, average starting pay is between $11 - $17. Federal minimum wage is $7.25, varies by state. Let's assume a nursing assistant earns $400 every week, after federal tax, state tax, city tax, medicare tax, medicaid tax and disability tax have been deducted, they could be left with $290 or around N100,000 a week or N400,000 a month. Wow! big money! how many bankers take home 400k a month, but here's where it gets tricky. Average monthly rent for a 1 bedroom apartment in the ghetto parts of new york for example where my church member lives is $1100 or N400,000. Whoa, 400k already gone and we haven't even talked about monthly electricity bills that averages $250 or N90,000. We haven't accounted for telephone bill of maybe $50 or N18,000 a month. How about transportation cost? woe betide you if you own a car, your monthly insurance can range from $150 - $600 or N54,000 - N216,000. Of course most people can't afford the high insurance so they use metrocards, which costs about $120 or N43,000 a month. We haven't even talked about food, clothing, health insurance if your employer doesn't provide you one.

Remember they also pay tax for everything, so after the government has deducted income tax and all sort of taxes, when you buy biscuit, you still pay sales tax of 9%. When you factor in all the expense, you will now understand why i said my church member who was a doctor in Nigeria was probably better off in Nigeria than settling for nursing assistant job in America. You go from a job of high prestige to one where you are cleaning old folks butt, bathing them and dealing with all manners of insult all because you want to live in America? Don't just look at minimum wage, you cannot raise a family in America solely on minimum wage, most of these guys have several jobs. Its like they just pay rent for the sake of having an address, many of them hop from one job to another allowing only a few hours for sleep in between.

Another pathetic ignorant liar

Ode, where's the lie?

ZoeyJ:
Don't dream too much.

One wise man said, if your dream doesn't scare you, its not big enough.

If they can snatch kids away from their parents, i believe they can do anything. Trump isn't playing. If you are an illegal immigrant reading this right now, start planing your return home. I'm sure you must've saved some money all these years no matter how small.

Mbaku of the mountain people. All of a sudden its cool to be African again. I like to see blacks from the carribean and the US embracing their roots. One day the black race will unite and conquer the world.

Na so. They think it is that easy. All the gra gra of getting visa alone will discourage many. How about my church member who was a doctor in Nigeria? The guy sold his house and traveled to the US with his family over 16 years ago, only to hear that he has given up on his dream of practicing as a medical doctor in the states and has settled for menial jobs like nursing assistant. People are lured by the nice salary doctors earn overseas like how some doctors earn over $200,000 a year and with specialty that number balloons to over $300,000. What they don't realize is how difficult it is to get residency. So many American trained medical students are even finding it difficult to get residency let alone foreigners. Moreover, they sometimes require them to take some other exams or fufill a course requirement which many fail to accomplish.

If these doctors are threatening to leave the country, they should let them, after all, there are many students praying to gain admission for medicine to replace them.

-You said judging by my name, I'm a Star Wars fan or I watch Star Wars. It is an irrelevant quip for the simple fact my moniker has nothing to do with Star Wars, but my actual name. And the characters name is Obi Wan Kenobi.

Stupid boy, the full name of the star wars character is Obi Wan Kenobi and your moniker is Obi1Kenobi. Isn't that the same thing? What is the likelihood that your exact moniker matches that of a movie character and you want to tell me it is derived from your name. You are just a dunce.

The sad thing about nairaland is the fact that at least 30% of all female members with that beautiful pink "f" next to their names are actually jobless men. Its even worse when they have female pictures in their profile.

Absolutely.

I've digressed several times of course. When you converse with kids, you have to bring yourself down to their communication level. When you communicate with cretins with short attention spans that can't stick to a line of query, it's natural you go off the rails. Good to see concede you had no intention of a substantive argument behind chest-beating like a gorilla.


And you're not fooling anyone with the bravado above. It's become blindingly obvious that my repeated responses despite your attempt to shake me off and get in the last word is taking its toll. Your last couple of responses showed a clear frustration that "this nigga just won't quit and is desperate to 'win' by attrition". Not to worry. I have shiit to do before I sleep and have an early and long day tomorrow. You can keep embarrassing yourself with your chest-beating bravado.
Goodnight.

Stop telling me goodnight, i'm not in a haste. You started this so why are you in a haste to end it? You are probably used to having the last word like an insolent child but I will not let you have it until I'm fully satisfied that you've been enlightened, but you are too stubborn and proud to admit that you were bamboozled tonight. I come across single celled miscreants like you on nairaland and I derive joy in ruining their attempts at internet gangstarism. From today hencefort if i come across any silly postings by you on nairaland, you better believe that I will straighten you out.

Its her body, let her do as she pleases. People criticizing her probably have premium membership on pornhub yet they want to pretend like they are righteous.

Come to think of it, there's hardly any smart person in Nigeria's government. When you think of great countries like the US where a majority of past presidents graduated from very very prestigious universities like Yale, Harvard etc, its just a shame when compared to our Nigerian leaders. What happened to all the bookworms from Nigerian universities, why aren't they in government? Rather we have all these old farts who keep dumbing down the seats that they hold.

All because of N100 bribe this guy could've suffered a debilitating injury that would've made him disable. I wonder if these guys have any critical thinking skills.

Only fools kill for political reasons, those running for power don't give a rat about you.

Obi1kenobi:
More psychoanalysis. From the cretin that spent his first posts talking about how I was "trying to sound smart". Yet:
- I'm not the one with the lame, embarrassing attempts at psychoanalysis
- I'm not the one fixated on how another poster is "trying to sound smart"
- I'm not the one chest-beating like a gorilla in courtship ritual about his own performance in a debate. A lame, insecure antic by insecure losers on anonymous internet forums.
His new fixation is now on how I'm looking to "protect my reputation" and impress people from arguing with some faceless cretin on the internet that I won't give a fucck about tomorrow. Protecting my reputation from someone who doesn't stick to a line of intelligible, cogent arguments and digresses all over the place.
Distilling all this in my own first attempt at psychoanalysis, all I see is someone projecting his intellectual insecurities on me. The entire back-and-forth has been spent trying to promote his intellectual creds. Pathetic.

Good, now that's more like it. I dictate the tempo, direction and duration of my dialog. I won't let you off the leash just like that until I'm done and until you've been enlightened. I just thought it was strange you were referring to me in the third person as if you were explaining yourself to a panel of judges. Mr Kenneth Obinna do you realize that you are a rabid dog and you've digressed several times all in an effort to square up with me? You accused me of psychoanalyzing you but you are doing the same.

Darlington the Uber driver in New York needs to mind his business and stop looking for cheap fame. I think the fact that Bobrisky hasn't been arrested or hurt physically is a sign that Nigeria is slowing entering the 21st century because if this was back in the days, this she-male would've been jailed or worse, hurt. That loose skin is probably from his numerous liposuction. I don't support gayness, but to each his own. Although at the rate things are going right now, i'm afraid that a day will come when being straight will be considered a taboo.

If a white man says something like this is how Africans punish thieves, all the racism hunters will start whining like little sissies. Now is this a civilized way of handling a thief? Just terrible.
