gypsey: Read the previous news and this article bro! It's a private company that is taking them to the UK, and according to the article, and the email, the UK government already approved and issued them Visa waiver, which allows them to apply for visa upon arrival. Also, from the first news, NIS denied them travelling because a particular law, which they quoted in that news, stated that no one can leave the borders of Nigeria, except they have a valid Visa of the destination country. In this case, they don't have Visa, but ordinary waivers sent to their Emails. And even if they wanted to place calls, I don't think those customs officer will want to listen. What I know is that No scammer will scam just 58 people, when they had the opportunity to scam much more. Also, why will they go through that stress of conducting exams and interviews for them? And it's only those who passed the exams and interviews that were asked to pay. And not just that, they obtained approval for the plane to land in Nigeria and even sent the Chartered flight. And how much did they collect? £500!! It does not fit into a scam description. 3 Likes |

See the bigger picture. THIS IS BRAIN DRAIN! A thinking people fully understand the grave implications of this exodus of doctors and other brilliant citizens of Nigeria. The world doesn't revolve around the needs or wants of a few people. I don't blame the doctors though. Fire on the roof! 1 Like |

Scam aiye ![]() £500 don enter voicemail. The moment they asked for money, that's how you know it's a scam. Any job that tells an hire or applicant to contribute money for flight, for laptop, for printer, e.t.c. is a scam. No recruitment firm in a developed country asks for money. None. 3 Likes |

poiunt: Did you just say this?? Get your facts right bro. The internet is there for you. Nigeria doctors in USA, UK and Australia are thousands in numbers as far back as few years ago when I last checked the statistics. Ensure you check on the official government website, for the official figures. That's all I will say. |

Chartey: Waivers for doctors from Nigeria when in the EU there are lot of doctors Look at NES Vacancy for resident doctors The minimum requirement for an applicant to the MO position is 2 years' post-registration experience, which will include a mixture of medicine and surgery So how are they qualified to practise in the Uk if they are not members of the of the UK medical union https://neshealthcare.co.uk/vacancies/medical-officer/ 2 Likes |

Ayemileto: Yes there are Nigerian doctors in the US, Uk and Australia But before you must qualified to be a doctor in those countries, you must have written various qualification exams and also registered in their respective medical association who will give you licence to practice. |

frog12: PLAB and IELTS are the only possible exams those guys did to qualify to work in the UK. You're not in the health sector hence, your limited knowledge on this. No recruitment agency sets exams for any doctor. In fact, these agencies literally beg you to come in through them. Skype interviews is the standard. As for those shouting scam scam, what you don't know is bigger than you. Multiply £500 by the number of passengers and research on how much it would cost to fly a return plane from the UK to Nigeria, the answer you'll get will clear your doubts. 6 Likes |

poiunt: But they could have collected from much more people. The 58 were only those who passed the written exam and interview. Also, they also got landing approval from the Nigerian government and actually sent the Chartered flight, which NIS prevented the doctors from boarding. So, if it's scam, why will they go through all this stress? By the time you do the plus and minus of all the expenses and income, what will be their gain? The timeframe (from January), exam, Skype interview, chartered flight, and collecting £500 from just 58 people (when they could have gotten from much more people that applied) doesn't fit a scam description. However, you're free to believe whatever you want though. This will be my last reply to you. 5 Likes |

poiunt:A council gives you a licence not an association. If you're coming to Nigeria to practice, you'll also need an MDCN licence. It's standard practice and all doctors know these things. There are many doctors who've passed PLAB 2 and obtained GMC registration but couldn't go to take up jobs because of the lockdown. Those who got jobs under the NES are the ones this arrangement was made for which was unfortunately sabotaged after Sega made noise about it on Twitter. The Nigerian Immigration were fully aware but had to backtrack to save face following the uproar. Some doctors who had matched for residency in the USA after their USMLE steps were also taken to Togo and to America by chartered flight just recently. These things are happening and those of us one the inside are aware. Now that you have your insider information, are you happy? 7 Likes |
