No lie considering the wellbeing of the populace depends on them you would think they will be pampered, meanwhile politicians n celebs are overpaid. Which of these groups can the populace do without. Human beings...Nawa oo.
But in Nigeria healthcare structure is wrong. There are very few primary health care centres that are maned properly. You have thousands of microbiologist, biochemists med lab scientists etc working in the bank or as teachers or as farmers. These people can be easily trained to work under a doctors supervision with proper etiquette, ethics and facilities to handle basic recurring health care issues. In conjunction with nurses and doctors the health care challenge can be rescued and the workers given indentures to work and stay
@@kajilaipoliticians don't care because they can fly abroad to get treated by the same doctors who have japa'd because of their heartlessness. Oh the irony!
Being A Doctor in Nigeria isnt easy. When i was sent back to stay in Nigeria for 10 months as a teenager, often i would see patients begging at the door of my Uncles house after coming back home at night after a full days work. He would often get upset and say that this was the last time he would work after his shift but we all knew that it wouldn't be long when another day would call for him to work after his shift from malaria stricken and sick people knocking on his gate crying for his assistance. God Bless the Doctors of Nigeria, they are doing God's work
@@yilmeh1if the Nigerian government put in the right things in place, the doctors would not leave in the first place. People want to have good lives too. Yes, they want to serve the sick but to their detriment? Poor pay, backdated medical equipments? Who wants that?
I have an African doctor. I've wondered since meeting her how she manages to turn 24hrs into 48. She was at the hospital first thing in the morning, sitting on the end of my bed at 10 pm, accepting emergency calls at 1am, and checking on me at 4am. She stays after hours to accommodate my situation, and still runs a clinic that is always full. People genuinely love her. If she only knew how much I appreciate and admire her. ❤❤❤ My favorite nurse was a Nigerian, and she offered care that was next level. They are amazing. I wish I could honor them with an opportunity to rest.
I spoke to a young man from Nigeria for a few months. The conditions of their lives were terrible. They still went to church and had Faith in Jesus to heal them. I regret not being able to do more. I would adopt so many children from Africa if I could. The Government is corrupt! Honestly, I believe the people need our help. I don’t have all the answers, but I KNOW we be doing more! I watched as this little baby passed away from fluid building up on his Kinsey’s, into his stomach. It’s was brutal. I did what I could but the hospitals want cash 💰 They don’t treat you for free, and from what I understand, Medical Insurance is NON Existent! Have you ever seen a Nigerian woman marry an American man? It’s the most beautiful thing in the world! She bows at the wedding and kisses his feet! She will treat that man like a King 👑 everyday of his life. I am a woman saying this. I keep that in mind EVERY Day! I am VERY blessed with my husband. He doesn’t hit us, he works 100+ hours a week, he NEVER complains. He makes sure I rest on the weekends to I can be on point during the week for our children. I DO NOT deserve this man. I thank Jesus he gifted me this husband. It’s really hard to “Vet” charities, but pray to Lord, ask him for Guidance.
Those of us Nigerians who were born or mostly raised abroad are in no place to be complaining about Nigerians leaving the country for financial gain. As an American-born Nigerian myself, my prayer is that things in Nigeria will improve so that we can go back (if we want)
I wish our economy becomes stable security and light stable haba you see all the knowledge and experience acquired in caring for patients I am very willing to even do more down home . Our people deserve better. I love Nigeria. If the enabling environment that guarantees high standards of living that will make doctors, nurses and other healthcare professionals who are of Nigerian origin live comfortably in Nigeria is created forget it ! Nigeria will become a nation for medical tourism. Just imagine how much that will also generate. Chai how did we get here ?
The returnee lady must have someone somewhere helping her out to be talking the way she does. Yes, in the West there are challenges but comparing the madness and slave like work environment in Nigeria to what obtains in the West is disingenuous.
Exactly, she should come and work in General Hospital Warri. She will not be saying this. Doctors deserve better in Nigeria. Doctors should be able to support themselves and have a work-life balance. I'm with the guy on this. The government should do better.
She probably has some privilege. Maybe if she grew up in Nigeria and never left, her thinking will be different. She's talking because her life is relatively softer.

Go away and think critically elsewhere. We don't need greedy criminals here. We need patriots. If our founding fathers chased money, we would not even be alive today.
She’s in Nigeria to help fix the country in her own little way. Americans didn’t run away from their problems. They stayed and tacked it and even fought a bloody civil war. And no matter how long thou stay overseas, you still don’t really “belong” and your generations will likely face the same challenges that the minorities are facing currently in those countries. Meanwhile the space you left behind at home has been occupied by the Indians and Chinese.
The first female doctor girl friend I had fell for me when I told her that she was spending all her to take care of others, but I would spend all my time taking care of her.
Medical degrees are heavily subsidized by the Nigerian government. Most medical doctors graduate debt-free in Nigeria, contrary to their US counterparts.
I understand completely, I’m soon to be there in Afrika bringing with me a degree in teaching and over 20 yrs of clerical experience. But after all this I still can’t ignore the fact that racism here in the US has taken its toll on me. To the young Nigerian 🇳🇬 Doctor hang in there its a wonderful near future coming for Nigeria in terms of health care and many other sectors.
Hanging in a country where u can't afford food to survive.. Everything is hiking in price, cement is 10,500 naira now. What else are we having patience for.
He should go to Nigeria and hang on small. Idiot!! He doesn't know what he is saying. What bright future is he talking about in Nigeria? Where is the enabling environment? No electricity. No infrastructure. No good roads. No healthcare. No transportation system. Economy is bad. No jobs. What is that fool even talking about.? I just relocated overseas and I know how beautiful life is here. I spent 50 years of my life in Nigeria already. I know what hardship is about in Nigeria. Then came the present government. The worse off
You make me laugh. It can't be for nothing that young people are leaving in droves, maybe you just need to take 3-4weeks vacation to go test the waters, go round the city in which you will stay during your visit, find out how people treat those who work under them, you'll be thankful for the America you grew in. I'm not necessarily saying you can't go back to motherland if you want but, you gotta brace yourself
There is a level you get in life the West will not be able to accommodate your strength. And as an immigrant you are expected to be in a certain level. The sky is never African immigrants limit amongst Westerners. This is when you see people moving back home. When food drink and security are no longer their main goals.
Governments need to do better for their people.Cost of living is atrocious. Junior doctors in the UK are exploited. I ve heard of foreign doctors working as care assistants in nursing home. People don t realise there is a lot of racism,discrimination and bullying in healthcare. Yes there are doctors that work 60+hours a week. Nigeria could be so much better. Nigeria deserves to be so much better. If the confidence of Nigerians was a thing the country would be a super power-sadly it is not
That's a lie,British people are the most generous people in the world,that's why so many of your people are going there to the detriment of the British people.
My dear it is not easy to handle the kind of stuff health workers do, sometimes you see cases that will make you reject food after dealing with them, as a health worker you work solitude everything you ve got, empathy, it most times messes up your psyche, takes all your time and drains you emotionally. It’s only fair that you get home and you are able to put food on the table. Most health workers can’t afford school fees in reputable schools talk more of holidays
Government! The salary should reflect the training and expenses these people had to suffer, pay them enough so when a patient cannot pay, it is not a problem
We are experiencing the same problem in Jamaica, not only in health care but also in education too . The government has to get doctors from Cuba and other countries to work in the hospitals. If these corrupt politicians will only pay these professionals what they are worth, countries wouldn’t have these problems, yet they pay themselves one hundred and add percent increase on their salaries, it’s a disgrace.
Thanks for that short class. People want a magic wand in Nigeria. I said to people, the problem of Nigeria is since independence, and the time bomb has not even exploded yet.. There's no one whether obi or atiku can wade a magic wand without people facing it as it is now. Politicians will always lie to people so as to be favorites if there's another chance of election. A country with insecurity since the time of obasanjo, a country where banks and bureau de change operators make over 250 to 300 on a dollar because dollar was pegged to 400 naira in the last administration as well as previous, country with no accountability, a country whose local consumption depends on importation for finished products and raw materials, a country with serious ethnic and religious divides. That country needs healing, or everyone should just go their way.
Let's be honest. the population has little to do with this when the economy is inside the government pocket. We live in a country where a politician can feed an entire state. The main problem here is the greed.
Thank you for your opinion This is the major problem for almost all African countries We need to manufacture our products in mass production just like china Our major market must be African countries, that means that many jobs are created preventing our children from becoming modern slaves just like me I have been doing such jobs jobs for the past 29 years and still counting The next move will be looking for market in different parts of the world Otherwise if we don’t do that Suffering of Africans in diaspora will never happen
She herself does not work for charity. You need to be able to take care pf yourself and your family too. She should understand that. If it's a problem to her then she should choose a number of Nigerian doctors wanting to leave and top up their salary instead so they can stay.
Pray to never be one of those people who are asked to leave which ever country they’re living. When this happens you’ll realize that every great country’s citizens made some sacrifices to make it great not only for them but for the next generation. The generation before you made the same sacrifice but what are the young Nigerians doing to change the horrible conditions in the country? No one respects anyone who will not clean his home but wants to spend all his time in the cleaned home of another.
Come to Canada and see the way Dr. are working. In the walk-in clinic, one Dr. on shift. I went to the centenary hospital with a friend we waited for 2 hours. They work like machines with the right attitude.@Dr fola
Bless you both for speaking the truth to the young people. Visit abroad but not to live there long term. You will only work to burn yourself out. Go abroad but build Nigeria which is your priority. What glitters is not always gold.
My salary is 300k+. Sound big or average but for what work? Patients don't even think u should have a holiday or anything like working hrs. They feel we should be ready to answer d call anytime 24/7. And painful part is I can't even use that money to school more than one kid in a good private facility, am talking Abt private secondary school. No average Dr will date think of a private university for their kids. D suffer too much mehn for d amount being paid. In my state no promotion in 5yrs. Working on same salty for over 5yrs don't make sense.
A doctor in OSUTH died in an accident, he was called in the middle of the night about an emergency patients who got in a serious accident and they need his immediate expertise. He died on his way, probably dosed of on steering. So much for "ingrained reasons to help others"
😅 This lady is being delusional.... sorry to say. People are not running away because of "money" people are trying to survive. People's youthful years are going to waste because of the system and in the case of doctors, they were being paid a pittance and still owed those meager salaries and allowances. In abroad everything is well sequestered and your salary comes on the appointed date, its automatic and non-negotiable. one of nigeria's minister at a point encouraged some doctors to go and learn how to sew clothes... I rest my case 😅😊
What you said (pittance, salaries, allowances) all comes down to money. Nigerians are not starving, so to say they are just trying to "survive" is hyperbole. Places like the DRC, Libya and somalia have greater crisis than Nigerians.
@blackpalacemusic So, if the countries you mentioned have their trained doctors, you can confirm they receive the same treatment as their Nigerian counterpart? with all due respect, we're talking about real issues here based on facts please let's not sugar-coat things. your argument make me wonder if you are a Nigerian, living in Nigeria because you don't seem to have a good grasp of the scope of issues I tried to reference based on my first comment on this post.
No offense if you want to stay Biko stay 😂😂😂 Another man’s food another man’s poison. I really feel you are comfortable with this hard ship in the country. Because if you are not you will understand why people are leaving the country. I can’t be working for hours and be getting peanuts . Don’t they have family to feed , school fees and other expenses. Please note: it is someone that has eaten and is alive that can take care of another .
@musikal7379 .It does no matter how you dissect the issue the point is, Nigeria, we are too greedy for money and a quick one for that matter! The greed is not just within the politciians, even the citizens are highly greedy! Everybody need purification. From the top to the bottom.Too much greed! It's that simple.
I am American but you Nigerians have to take the initiative like the black American change there country. You Nigerians have to be the ones to change your own country no one else can change it for you, you people have to help yourselves and stop running away from your country and change things there if you want to run away to make money but go back to your country and build it up and put a stop to the corruption of your politics there in Nigeria only you can change Nigeria.
It takes minimum of 7 years to be a doctor in Nigeria. You study under duress and stress, with minimal equipment and an unstable educational system, parents have suffered through their teeth to see you through school and if you're lucky enough you don't get failed by mean lecturers. Everyone wants a better life, so if they have a shot at it, why not. If you know Nigeria well, you'll know that no matter how much the citizens express themselves, the political leaders turn deaf ears. Citizens of Nigeria have realised this and it's best they leave for a while when they still can.
Basically she is saying just because you want to help people you should put your own health at risk. What kind of care can you even give to this many people that’s so reckless
Some doctors died in our specialist hospital here in Nasarawa because they contacted lassa fever from a patient who was bleeding profusely after giving birth. They didn't know she had lassa fever and several consultants were doing their best to save her and some of them died at least 2 after that exposure. The facility conditions in the hospitals are terrible and not all doxtors leeave because of money. Some live for better working conditions
My sister 20 litres of fuel here in UK today was 50 pounds…over 100k in naija…Iam coming back….i get enough for my life time…I need peace in my village..
Yes, my dear, all these jaba, jaba, jaba to abroad e tire person. Una won come abroad? Make una de come. After abroad finish using una, una eye go shine! Una think se na everything we de glitter na im be gold. Make una de come. Make them take una young strength take build them country. Them go happily use una daft, oju kokoro brains! Everybody want quick money and white-colar jobs, nobody wan do farming to produce enough food for the country. That is why we dey import everything. We want buy, buy foreign products instead of making our own. Extravagant lifestyle na im everyone de look for. If oyibo people de jaba from them country as we dey jaba from Nigeria/Africa,, who go come build the abroad for una to de jaba to shamelessly? What a shame!
So doctors should go and farm? You come back and farm na as the abroad de take your strength. Like you don't see what the government is doing. It's nit like Nigeria is a poor country but some people just feel they and their family members alone are entitled to a whole nation's wealth. And people who have struggled through school that wasn't free education, through strikes, should not see better opportunity and "japa" abi? They should spend their youthful strength working in a country that isn't paying rather than go spend it where it is used but paid...right? Very brilliant. Please come and help us farm. And maybe be a doctor too.
Nobody asks free service from Advocates, CAs, Engineers, Plumbers, Electricians.... Why only Drs has to do FREE service??? Or only they have social obligations but not other professionals
Anto is very correct. Those who are in support of doctors leaving the country should continue with that kind of reasoning. One day when you're terribly sick and there's no doctor to attain to you, your eyes go clear.
I hope you realise the same doctors you are taking about also have families and even extended family to think about? The government needs to fix their pay, the conditions some doctors are made to work in is so terrible. Speak to your doctors friends and let them tell you how it is.
Doctors are also humans and what she says is either naive or purposefully guilt tripping doctors. It's blaming the wrong people because I'm quite sure that health care in Nigeria would be a lot better if the money that was meant to improve education and the economy wouldn't end up in the hand of their politicians. However, it's probably a lot harder to criticise people who really have the power to change things.
In my country MED school is not equipped enough, there is few place available for people to study medicine despite the fact that we're now 30 millions and we need more doctors nurses and specialists.
As someone who was in the medical field and switched to marketing… My sister, I am firstborn. Helping sick people isn’t going to pay the bills! Forget what the motivational speakers say. You can find purpose without slavery. I found another way of helping people and I value those who are still there because the conditions and SALARY are far from fair. I got promoted to a managerial position managing a full department and my salary remained the same. 50k. Yet I was moved to a different branch farther from my house eating 30k out of that in transportation because of so called promotion. Why will I stay in a field like that? Even government workers face the same things. So let them leave. Whoever feels otherwise can go study for 8years and come back to tell me 150k monthly after 8years of insane lecturers is worth it. Thank you.
There are doctors in the US that will complete unethical surgeries on the elderly for money not to save their lives. Most of those patients die. So yes doctors should be compensated fairly but the doctors end game should never be money solely.
Population in Nigeria is massive jho it pains me because Nigeria has lot of potential how come their government is not doing enough so people won't be all over countries 😊
A question for the government. Why is a country that is mineral rich, can't afford to create health care systems, that will enable healthcare workers, to stay and care for the citizens. Yet, they allow foreigners to extract vast amounts of the natural resources including healthcare workers to build/work in their healthcare.
It’s up to the mother as she speaks to her daughter, her grandmother her nieces and her sisters “beauty is in the heart, be kind, be gentle with yourself and with men”
It’s not just about money, it’s about survival! You stay without the basic necessities like food, water, electricity, etc and let’s see how you survive
Why abyone thinks helthcare ISNT about money is beyond me. Doctors become Doctors to get rich. They NEVER say "i look forward to giving 60% of my wages to charity". How utterly stupid.
You really need to come Nigeria, become a doctor and work in our economy and government before you agree with her. I am no doctor but trust me, i stand with the doctors, her problem should be with our government.
She’s right. They tell you to leave your country for money. But that serves to weaken your country and in time knowledge reduces and less doctors are being produced. Stay home and keep your country strong.
People in general migrate because they want something different In Africa we are presented with a culture that looks glamorous and different It’s not all about money , it’s the people that can afford to that migrate the most We need to strategize on how to make our people feel needed, we are lacking in that area!
They got their priorities backwards. Even in Haiti 🇭🇹 these people can’t find a job to take care of themselves and their families, that is why they come abroad. The garbage man, policeman every institution because these politicians in the government taking all the money hiding it abroad. And they constantly asking for help from other countries and the people in the country remain poor in the same conditions so how dare her? My father said they couldn’t get paid for months when he was living in the Diaspora. That’s y he he left. Believe me the people do not want to come in a racist European countries abroad. They are left with no choice. It’s a matter of Survival.
We built wrong things on wrong foundations. Failure to plan is future failure. Nigeria is a case here. Our admnistrators kept doing the same thing expecting different result. We have to think outside the box to get the best.
I'm glad he said, "What happens to me"? Exactly. Being a Doctor is like a calling from God but, they are not God or unhuman. The lifestyle of a doctor is not as glamorous as people think it is.
Why people think healthcare workers should tolerate slave working conditions is beyond me.
BEYOOOND!

She wont practice in the conditions some of us do.. And she must be from a political family
She’s in Nigeria to help fix the country in her own little way. Americans didn’t run away from their problems. They stayed and tacked it and even fought a bloody civil war. And no matter how long thou stay overseas, you still don’t really “belong” and your generations will likely face the same challenges that the minorities are facing currently in those countries. Meanwhile the space you left behind at home has been occupied by the Indians and Chinese.
The first female doctor girl friend I had fell for me when I told her that she was spending all her to take care of others, but I would spend all my time taking care of her.
What about me!? The most honest question
Self-care is important even for doctors, I think you agree.
Medical degrees are heavily subsidized by the Nigerian government. Most medical doctors graduate debt-free in Nigeria, contrary to their US counterparts.
I understand completely, I’m soon to be there in Afrika bringing with me a degree in teaching and over 20 yrs of clerical experience. But after all this I still can’t ignore the fact that racism here in the US has taken its toll on me. To the young Nigerian 🇳🇬 Doctor hang in there its a wonderful near future coming for Nigeria in terms of health care and many other sectors.
Hanging in a country where u can't afford food to survive.. Everything is hiking in price, cement is 10,500 naira now. What else are we having patience for.
He should go to Nigeria and hang on small. Idiot!! He doesn't know what he is saying. What bright future is he talking about in Nigeria? Where is the enabling environment? No electricity. No infrastructure. No good roads. No healthcare. No transportation system. Economy is bad. No jobs.
What is that fool even talking about.?
I just relocated overseas and I know how beautiful life is here. I spent 50 years of my life in Nigeria already. I know what hardship is about in Nigeria.
Then came the present government. The worse off
Dont listen to them O....them run commot come dey talk bullshit....lets switch places nah....abi naija dey sweet you
You make me laugh. It can't be for nothing that young people are leaving in droves, maybe you just need to take 3-4weeks vacation to go test the waters, go round the city in which you will stay during your visit, find out how people treat those who work under them, you'll be thankful for the America you grew in.
I'm not necessarily saying you can't go back to motherland if you want but, you gotta brace yourself
There is a level you get in life the West will not be able to accommodate your strength.
And as an immigrant you are expected to be in a certain level. The sky is never African immigrants limit amongst Westerners. This is when you see people moving back home. When food drink and security are no longer their main goals.
Same thing in Jamaica 🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲 the doctors have bills to pay .
Governments need to do better for their people.Cost of living is atrocious. Junior doctors in the UK are exploited. I ve heard of foreign doctors working as care assistants in nursing home. People don t realise there is a lot of racism,discrimination and bullying in healthcare. Yes there are doctors that work 60+hours a week.
Nigeria could be so much better. Nigeria deserves to be so much better. If the confidence of Nigerians was a thing the country would be a super power-sadly it is not
That's a lie,British people are the most generous people in the world,that's why so many of your people are going there to the detriment of the British people.
My dear it is not easy to handle the kind of stuff health workers do, sometimes you see cases that will make you reject food after dealing with them, as a health worker you work solitude everything you ve got, empathy, it most times messes up your psyche, takes all your time and drains you emotionally.
It’s only fair that you get home and you are able to put food on the table. Most health workers can’t afford school fees in reputable schools talk more of holidays
U speaking my heart. ❤
Government! The salary should reflect the training and expenses these people had to suffer, pay them enough so when a patient cannot pay, it is not a problem
Everyone who has worked really hard deserves a decent life. Don't hold them back.
We are experiencing the same problem in Jamaica, not only in health care but also in education too . The government has to get doctors from Cuba and other countries to work in the hospitals. If these corrupt politicians will only pay these professionals what they are worth, countries wouldn’t have these problems, yet they pay themselves one hundred and add percent increase on their salaries, it’s a disgrace.
Our Kenyan representing us well🇰🇪🇰🇪Over to you at the studio🤭
Speaking from a stand point of a privilege person and sounding very ignorant.
Nigeria population is growing faster than economy with most of its resources being exported for cash and no manufacturing industry insight
Thanks for that short class. People want a magic wand in Nigeria. I said to people, the problem of Nigeria is since independence, and the time bomb has not even exploded yet.. There's no one whether obi or atiku can wade a magic wand without people facing it as it is now. Politicians will always lie to people so as to be favorites if there's another chance of election. A country with insecurity since the time of obasanjo, a country where banks and bureau de change operators make over 250 to 300 on a dollar because dollar was pegged to 400 naira in the last administration as well as previous, country with no accountability, a country whose local consumption depends on importation for finished products and raw materials, a country with serious ethnic and religious divides. That country needs healing, or everyone should just go their way.
Let's be honest. the population has little to do with this when the economy is inside the government pocket. We live in a country where a politician can feed an entire state. The main problem here is the greed.
@@ukipop its the population fault that their being played for fools by the minority in govenrment its colonisation all over again
Thank you for your opinion
This is the major problem for almost all African countries
We need to manufacture our products in mass production just like china
Our major market must be African countries, that means that many jobs are created preventing our children from becoming modern slaves just like me I have been doing such jobs jobs for the past 29 years and still counting
The next move will be looking for market in different parts of the world
Otherwise if we don’t do that
Suffering of Africans in diaspora will never happen
@naturalhandcraftedskincare1855 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Wtf does that lady think people are going to work for? Charity?
She herself does not work for charity. You need to be able to take care pf yourself and your family too. She should understand that. If it's a problem to her then she should choose a number of Nigerian doctors wanting to leave and top up their salary instead so they can stay.
I don't understand her yet
She’s just a fool. Period
Doctors are paid far better than most other professions, u guys should calm down joor.
@@Chuby_ubesie The ones that are being owed?
The government should give incentives for healthcare professionals to stay in Nigeria.
I'm South African Africa must fix itself we need change
Pray to never be one of those people who are asked to leave which ever country they’re living. When this happens you’ll realize that every great country’s citizens made some sacrifices to make it great not only for them but for the next generation. The generation before you made the same sacrifice but what are the young Nigerians doing to change the horrible conditions in the country? No one respects anyone who will not clean his home but wants to spend all his time in the cleaned home of another.
My experience, Nigerians are one of the best English speaking people, sometimes their choice of words is so poetic ❤
Yes just listwn to Arome Osayi. That mans vocab is levels
Come to Canada and see the way Dr. are working. In the walk-in clinic, one Dr. on shift. I went to the centenary hospital with a friend we waited for 2 hours. They work like machines with the right attitude.@Dr fola
I moved myself and family to Nigeria 2017- 2020, we kept trying to stay, yes, we gave up, I'm glad we did. Lot's of fun, but many challenges.
Bless you both for speaking the truth to the young people. Visit abroad but not to live there long term. You will only work to burn yourself out. Go abroad but build Nigeria which is your priority. What glitters is not always gold.
This is very true these young intelligent ppl tells the truth
God bless our beautiful doctors inside & outside! Beautiful lady Dr & a handsome Dr Prince . We need a saviour in Nigeria 🇳🇬 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
My salary is 300k+. Sound big or average but for what work? Patients don't even think u should have a holiday or anything like working hrs. They feel we should be ready to answer d call anytime 24/7. And painful part is I can't even use that money to school more than one kid in a good private facility, am talking Abt private secondary school. No average Dr will date think of a private university for their kids. D suffer too much mehn for d amount being paid. In my state no promotion in 5yrs. Working on same salty for over 5yrs don't make sense.
A doctor in OSUTH died in an accident, he was called in the middle of the night about an emergency patients who got in a serious accident and they need his immediate expertise. He died on his way, probably dosed of on steering.
So much for "ingrained reasons to help others"
😅 This lady is being delusional.... sorry to say. People are not running away because of "money" people are trying to survive. People's youthful years are going to waste because of the system and in the case of doctors, they were being paid a pittance and still owed those meager salaries and allowances. In abroad everything is well sequestered and your salary comes on the appointed date, its automatic and non-negotiable. one of nigeria's minister at a point encouraged some doctors to go and learn how to sew clothes... I rest my case 😅😊
What you said (pittance, salaries, allowances) all comes down to money. Nigerians are not starving, so to say they are just trying to "survive" is hyperbole. Places like the DRC, Libya and somalia have greater crisis than Nigerians.
@blackpalacemusic
So, if the countries you mentioned have their trained doctors, you can confirm they receive the same treatment as their Nigerian counterpart? with all due respect, we're talking about real issues here based on facts please let's not sugar-coat things. your argument make me wonder if you are a Nigerian, living in Nigeria because you don't seem to have a good grasp of the scope of issues I tried to reference based on my first comment on this post.
No offense if you want to stay Biko stay 😂😂😂
Another man’s food another man’s poison.
I really feel you are comfortable with this hard ship in the country. Because if you are not you will understand why people are leaving the country.
I can’t be working for hours and be getting peanuts .
Don’t they have family to feed , school fees and other expenses.
Please note: it is someone that has eaten and is alive that can take care of another .
@musikal7379 .It does no matter how you dissect the issue the point is, Nigeria, we are too greedy for money and a quick one for that matter!
The greed is not just within the politciians, even the citizens are highly greedy!
Everybody need purification. From the top to the bottom.Too much greed!
It's that simple.
I am American but you Nigerians have to take the initiative like the black American change there country. You Nigerians have to be the ones to change your own country no one else can change it for you, you people have to help yourselves and stop running away from your country and change things there if you want to run away to make money but go back to your country and build it up and put a stop to the corruption of your politics there in Nigeria only you can change Nigeria.
It takes minimum of 7 years to be a doctor in Nigeria. You study under duress and stress, with minimal equipment and an unstable educational system, parents have suffered through their teeth to see you through school and if you're lucky enough you don't get failed by mean lecturers. Everyone wants a better life, so if they have a shot at it, why not.
If you know Nigeria well, you'll know that no matter how much the citizens express themselves, the political leaders turn deaf ears. Citizens of Nigeria have realised this and it's best they leave for a while when they still can.
I’m in love with the dermatologist 😂
The wisdom of the Lord will heal us.
Basically she is saying just because you want to help people you should put your own health at risk. What kind of care can you even give to this many people that’s so reckless
Some doctors died in our specialist hospital here in Nasarawa because they contacted lassa fever from a patient who was bleeding profusely after giving birth. They didn't know she had lassa fever and several consultants were doing their best to save her and some of them died at least 2 after that exposure. The facility conditions in the hospitals are terrible and not all doxtors leeave because of money. Some live for better working conditions
My sister 20 litres of fuel here in UK today was 50 pounds…over 100k in naija…Iam coming back….i get enough for my life time…I need peace in my village..
Yes, my dear, all these jaba, jaba, jaba to abroad e tire person. Una won come abroad? Make una de come. After abroad finish using una, una eye go shine!
Una think se na everything we de glitter na im be gold. Make una de come. Make them take una young strength take build them country. Them go happily use una daft, oju kokoro brains!
Everybody want quick money and white-colar jobs, nobody wan do farming to produce enough food for the country. That is why we dey import everything.
We want buy, buy foreign products instead of making our own.
Extravagant lifestyle na im everyone de look for.
If oyibo people de jaba from them country as we dey jaba from Nigeria/Africa,, who go come build the abroad for una to de jaba to shamelessly?
What a shame!
So doctors should go and farm? You come back and farm na as the abroad de take your strength. Like you don't see what the government is doing. It's nit like Nigeria is a poor country but some people just feel they and their family members alone are entitled to a whole nation's wealth. And people who have struggled through school that wasn't free education, through strikes, should not see better opportunity and "japa" abi? They should spend their youthful strength working in a country that isn't paying rather than go spend it where it is used but paid...right? Very brilliant. Please come and help us farm. And maybe be a doctor too.
I pray GOD BLESS the people , the doctors and The Land of Nigeria . 🙏🏽😇👑❤️
Why is it that some countries find it so hard to fix the simplest of problems?.
Nobody asks free service from Advocates, CAs, Engineers, Plumbers, Electricians.... Why only Drs has to do FREE service??? Or only they have social obligations but not other professionals
Anto is very correct. Those who are in support of doctors leaving the country should continue with that kind of reasoning. One day when you're terribly sick and there's no doctor to attain to you, your eyes go clear.
I hope you realise the same doctors you are taking about also have families and even extended family to think about? The government needs to fix their pay, the conditions some doctors are made to work in is so terrible. Speak to your doctors friends and let them tell you how it is.
It makes me sick to think about the fact that Nigeria with all its natural resources is struggling to pay doctors. This is poor leadership.
Doctors are also humans and what she says is either naive or purposefully guilt tripping doctors. It's blaming the wrong people because I'm quite sure that health care in Nigeria would be a lot better if the money that was meant to improve education and the economy wouldn't end up in the hand of their politicians. However, it's probably a lot harder to criticise people who really have the power to change things.
In my country MED school is not equipped enough, there is few place available for people to study medicine despite the fact that we're now 30 millions and we need more doctors nurses and specialists.
She can stay and take care of all the patients if she wants
I hope she takes care of everyone except your family.
They are very beautiful,all of them ❤
Madam let that be a problem to you, direct that to the politicians.
WORK AND SAVE LIVE A JOYFUL LIFE WITHIN YOUR MEANS...
As someone who was in the medical field and switched to marketing… My sister, I am firstborn. Helping sick people isn’t going to pay the bills! Forget what the motivational speakers say. You can find purpose without slavery. I found another way of helping people and I value those who are still there because the conditions and SALARY are far from fair.
I got promoted to a managerial position managing a full department and my salary remained the same. 50k. Yet I was moved to a different branch farther from my house eating 30k out of that in transportation because of so called promotion. Why will I stay in a field like that? Even government workers face the same things. So let them leave. Whoever feels otherwise can go study for 8years and come back to tell me 150k monthly after 8years of insane lecturers is worth it. Thank you.
Going after the wrong problem
Go after the corrupt leaders
There are doctors in the US that will complete unethical surgeries on the elderly for money not to save their lives. Most of those patients die. So yes doctors should be compensated fairly but the doctors end game should never be money solely.
Thank you, Sis... Let me say ditto. The health care system in America is INFECTED because it is driven my profit. That is so sick.
The reporter is our Kenyan girl, doctors are human
Population in Nigeria is massive jho it pains me because Nigeria has lot of potential how come their government is not doing enough so people won't be all over countries 😊
The strategy is to get more doctors. Creating an initiatives to train and house doctors.
Exactly 💯
They are both right. 🙏🙏🙏🥰 💞
Truth❤❤❤
May God Almighty by Himself encourage our doctors, IJMN.
This is a tough ministry and the doctors, nurses. May the Holy Spirit of upon them.
full video please. want to see the dcumentary.
Hello people a American here telling you all we don’t have enough doctors either .. it’s bad people have to sit with bullet wounds
A question for the government. Why is a country that is mineral rich, can't afford to create health care systems, that will enable healthcare workers, to stay and care for the citizens.
Yet, they allow foreigners to extract vast amounts of the natural resources including healthcare workers to build/work in their healthcare.
Our doctors in the US have struggles, too.
Anto from big brother Naija
Labour/talent follows better pay; simple and short.
It’s up to the mother as she speaks to her daughter, her grandmother her nieces and her sisters “beauty is in the heart, be kind, be gentle with yourself and with men”
Women obsessed with physical beauty is dangerous.
-men will watch, men will follow. They have no other choice. They come second.
#commonsense
Why are they soo beautiful 😻
It’s not just about money, it’s about survival! You stay without the basic necessities like food, water, electricity, etc and let’s see how you survive
If everybody keeps leaving nothing is going to change.
Nothing is going to change but they will change their lives
If everyone leaves, everything changes.
Bring her home pls. Beautiful lady
Why abyone thinks helthcare ISNT about money is beyond me. Doctors become Doctors to get rich. They NEVER say "i look forward to giving 60% of my wages to charity". How utterly stupid.
I totally agree with her!!
Agree with her rubbish? Did you watch the full episode?
You really need to come Nigeria, become a doctor and work in our economy and government before you agree with her. I am no doctor but trust me, i stand with the doctors, her problem should be with our government.
So because you love to help people, you shouldn't want more or better for yourself and your family?
Are you ready to send some Nigerian doctors some extra money?
You agree with her because you’re high on something. Mtcheww
Good for you. When they travel abroad. There are also helping people.
True physician heal thyself. More doctors need to unite so it won’t be too much on one
She’s right. They tell you to leave your country for money.
But that serves to weaken your country and in time knowledge reduces and less doctors are being produced.
Stay home and keep your country strong.
People in general migrate because they want something different
In Africa we are presented with a culture that looks glamorous and different
It’s not all about money , it’s the people that can afford to that migrate the most
We need to strategize on how to make our people feel needed, we are lacking in that area!
Nigeria is to rich and smart to be trodden down. It's simple, the government is corrupted and it trickles down and the citizens suffer
Why was the interviewer looking at her that way? 😅 as though with anger , admiration and envy at the same time.
How was she looking at her? Shes trying to take in and understand the young ladies perspective
This is so sad , Lord have mercy and help Nigeria ❤😊
They got their priorities backwards. Even in Haiti 🇭🇹 these people can’t find a job to take care of themselves and their families, that is why they come abroad. The garbage man, policeman every institution because these politicians in the government taking all the money hiding it abroad. And they constantly asking for help from other countries and the people in the country remain poor in the same conditions so how dare her? My father said they couldn’t get paid for months when he was living in the Diaspora. That’s y he he left. Believe me the people do not want to come in a racist European countries abroad. They are left with no choice. It’s a matter of Survival.
The kenyan journalist ❤
We built wrong things on wrong foundations. Failure to plan is future failure. Nigeria is a case here. Our admnistrators kept doing the same thing expecting different result. We have to think outside the box to get the best.
The returned woman irritated me so much!
I'm ancestral Nigerian having never been.
I'm glad he said, "What happens to me"? Exactly. Being a Doctor is like a calling from God but, they are not God or unhuman. The lifestyle of a doctor is not as glamorous as people think it is.
Let’s answer ‘what happens to me?’ first before we think of any other concern
I would expect money to be a factor. The journey to doctor is not free.
