Previous Thread: https://www.nairaland.com/7405045/uk-licenses-91-nigerian-doctors During the week, the President of Nigeria Medical Association, (NMA), Dr. Ojinmah Uche, must have ruffled feathers once again in the healthcare circle with the frightening revelation that Nigeria is down to 24,000 doctors to cater for its over 200m population.https://www.blueprint.ng/worrisome-exodus-of-nigerian-doctors/ 3 Likes

The President-Maj.General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.) Said “Nigerians have suffered so much going abroad for medical treatment.This is not good for us & it must stop because we can’t afford it again" The President, who himself had travelled to the United Kingdom for treatment on several occasions."These are the grossly irresponsible leaders zombies are cheering on in this nation? Imagine this collapse & state of emergency in the health sector alone of our national life. Not to even think of the corresponding collapse of other sectors like security, economy, agriculture, and other strata of our national life. 17 Likes |

The Nigeria’s situation has remained very pathetic. To meet the WHO’s recommendation of ratio one doctor to 600 patients, about 300,000 doctors would be required. This means that Nigeria must produce at least 10,000 doctors annually for the next 10 years. Reacting to the incessant hiring of our doctors, the Minister of Labour and Productivity, himself a medical practitioner, Dr. Chris Ngige, dismissed the fears expressed by Nigerians over the developments. He boasted that Nigeria had enough medical personnel to spare. Many were even shocked by his claim that that we had surplus native doctors that could fill the vacuum and meet the nation’s demand for healthcare services. How ridiculous! Just imagine! These are the kind of irresponsible leaders Nigeria is perpetually bedevilled with.Too bad! So sad! 3 Likes 1 Share |

Unfortunately, we're only seeing from the perspective of the doctors. For every doctor who leaves, there are between 2 to 5 nurses leaving. Now also add Pharmacists, radiographers, laboratory scientist, and physiotherapist, health attendants, mortuary attendants, etc. We're going to see the effect in a few years time if the govt can't replace those leaving. Almost all teaching hospitals are grossly understaffed now. 9 Likes |
