It's disheartening to see the growing number of Nigerian doctors seeking opportunities abroad due to better compensation. According to recent data, 281 Nigerian doctors are now practicing in other African countries, and a staggering 11,872 in the UK!
This alarming trend not only poses a significant loss of talent for our nation but also impacts the quality of healthcare services in our hospitals, which are left understaffed.
The situation highlights the urgent need to improve doctors' wages and working conditions in Nigeria. Our healthcare professionals deserve better recognition and compensation for their dedication and expertise.
Let's not forget that these doctors are being actively recruited by other nations, offering higher pay. To retain our healthcare workforce and ensure the well-being of our citizens, we must address this issue promptly.
The brain drain is not just a loss for our healthcare system but a loss for our entire nation. It's time for us to invest in our doctors and healthcare infrastructure to build a healthier and brighter future for Nigeria. 🇳🇬 💪
