wirinet: There are at least 40 Universities in Nigeria offering Medicine in Nigeria each graduating at least 100 students every year. Making at least 4,000 Doctors graduating every year. In 10yrs that is 40,000. Why are there 40K doctors in Nigeria to a population of 200M? Because a vast majority of them cannot get work and are on a farm somewhere instead of being in hospitals Below is what the Nigerian minister of labor who is also a Medical doctor said. Now tell me why shouldnt Doctors leave Nigeria One of the programme anchors had asked him if he was worried about the rate doctors leave Nigeria to which he responded: “No, I am not worried (about doctors leaving the country). We have surplus. If you have surplus, you export. The case of engineers is even worse than that of doctors. Brain drain has rendered Nigeria practically without competent engineers needed to develop the country. The case with Engineers is also similar, For every Engineering class in who graduated from a top Nigerian School between 10-15yrs ago, 50% of them have travelled out, 40% of them are either unemployed or underemployed. These are working as bankers and teachers. 10% of them are working as Engineers Now tell me what they should do since you dont want them to travel out I read the story, and according to my comprehension, I don't see how the guy will join those developing America. From the story he got a scholarship from a patriotic Nigerian to study for PhD. He will pay well over $100,000 to the US economy (with $75,000/year for tuition alone). The issue is what happens after the PhD programme? If it was Trump, he would be deported back to Nigeria to use his PhD to develop his country. But Biden might want to use his skills to develop America. What I understand is The 3 guys helped him with the application fee, GRE fees and mentoring. The 100K is a scholarship from the school itself. SMU a very conservative school decided to give a Nigerian scholarship worth 100K to study in their school not minding his color, while all you can see is black vs white The immigration policy proposed by Trump will actually favor people like him, who are highly educated in the Canadian immigration style he will get to stay. He will likely become something in life instead of being a farmer and a lesson teacher in Ebonyi It is not that Nigeria does not need him, the problem is that Nigerian and the black race in general lacks the foresight, planning, sacrifice and cohesiveness necessary for progress. Just like you and most people on this topic supporting brain drain and cracked down on immigration at the same time, they are short sighted, selfish and self hating. They are happy at the current state of their country, state, village and even family (extended). You wrote lenghty but did not say one thing Emmanuel Nworie should have done instead of joining the brain drain. This is the problem with politics, never givng practical solutions, Dateline October 2020, Mr Nworie is in the farm, what should Mr Nworie do about his life? What will be the benefit to Nigeria and even Michael Taiwo if Michael Taiwo after getting his PhD decides to stay in the US to develop their country, and never coming back to contribute anything to the country and people that gave him the opportunities to succeed?Michael Taiwo actually stayed back after his PhD and he is helping the country that needed him to develop, Maybe if he was in Nigeria, he too will be in a farm in Ekiti harvesting yams with his First class It's not a matter of black vs white, it's a matter of promoting group interests. It makes sense to promote your family, clan, tribal, country and race interest for your own long term interests. Blacks are the only race I know that promotes the interests of other groups to the detriment of their own group interest, for short term personal gains. They are the only people I know that loathe and denigrate their own village people and ancestors but worships the ancestors of other races. I cannot tell how encouraging brilliant Nigerians to immigrate to where their talents are appreciated becomes self hating and racism. I know some people see racism even in the food they eat Skill and brains don't develop themselves, they cost money to develop. What i am saying is that if the US, Canada, UK and Australia wants best brains and skills, they should spend the money to train their own people like the Chinese, Japanese and Koreans do. But it's immoral to wait for poor nations to spend their meagre resourcing developing brains and skills only for them to steal them. All you have said is simply long stories without practical solutions. A Nigerian minster encouraged smart people to leave the country because Nigeria does not have opportunities for them. What would you do if you were in their shoe? Its hypocrisy when over 80% of people here are either abroad or planning to move abroad while we are complaining about brain drain 1 Like 1 Share |

Timiofak:I made a mistake with the figures it was $1200 dollars Trump was offering per individuals which brought the total figure to 1.8 trillion dollars which Pelosi rejected saying she wants 2.2 trillion dollars but after the Election she and McConnell agreed on a $900 billion deal which was lower than what Trump was offering.. It was a political move at the detriment of their suffering Constituents in a pandemic that’s my point, Republicans were wrong in trying to obstruct A palliative for political reasons, the same way Democrats are wrong for doing the same thing .. I am not here to support or against any side, I stand for what’s True, What’s Fair and What’s Just.. 1 Like 1 Share

TEODIN: Firstly politics was played here I agree. Me and you know trump kept his name on the first stimulus check, and there was a spike in his approval ratings right after that. It was so close to the election that every politician would do virtually the same thing Trump was offering, 1200 McConnel wasn't offering anything And people were in hunger. Mcconnel later agreed to $600 and wasn't going to budge, both Biden, Pelosi and Sanders said they wanted 2k. They knew McConnel would never agree (which is were politics kicked in) they remained on a standstill after the election, Pelosi knew there is no political advantage to trump if either check was passed. And biden would definitely sign a bigger relief, which she agreed to $600 so something could go out first since McConnel wasn't going to move from that, she then said 1400 would come in after the transition, making it 2000 Trump wanted 2k, biden wanted it, pelosi did, Sander's did, generally, I could say more than 65% did Mcconnel and his cronies, we're not going to pass anything. 2 Likes |

wirinet: It always comes down to the good old principles of demand and supply. People migrate wherever their skills are needed, or where they feel they can have a better life. First world nations know this, and play it to their advantage. Canada needs an influx of young and highly educated immigrants to boost population growth for their economy. The same applies to most of these first world nations where people are waiting longer till their 30s and 40s to have kids. 2 Likes

First image the actual news from bbc http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-36880758 Second image is a doctored image i did in 10 seconds (not my best work though, because i wont start up my laptop for this rubbish so i used an unpaid app on my phone for it) If you are sure bbc posted that your insane image, Put a link here from the particular bbc article.
