We Have Enough Medical Doctors in Nigeria — Ehanire | Daily Report Nigeria
SHARE

Nigeria Minister of Health, Dr Osagie Ehanire has claimed that there are actually enough medical doctors in the country.

The minister said the Nigeria Government is working toward replacing any medical doctor who resigns and leaves the country for another.

He stated this on Tuesday in Abuja during a media conference.

Ehanire further said that the number of doctors leaving Nigeria is less than 1,000.

According to him: “There’s no embargo on employing doctors; where there is a need, we do. But, because there’s a Civil Service regulation, there are processes before doctors are employed.

“We have heard complaints of doctors who are now leaving the system, but there are actually enough doctors in the system because we are producing up to 2,000 or 3,000 doctors every year in the country and the number leaving is less than 1,000.

“It’s just that the employment process needs to be smoothened.”

He added, “So, if we have one replacement, then you aren’t likely to have a shortage.

“But that has been worked out because the Head of Service had the experience in the past, when one person goes, they use the opportunity to take three and those others may not even be people who are required.

“We want to use this policy so that we can reduce shortages and have our personnel back in our hospitals.”
