2,000 Doctors leave Nigeria annually to practice abroad.
1 doctor attends to an approximate 6,000 patients.
We need 237,000 doctors but only have 35,000.
We need Doctors to have better conditions of service so that they can remain doctors and not Farmers or Politicians.

In 2004, called my host from Madrid Airport and he said, if you leave now it’s a 6 hour bus trip to Mojácar. You will get here by 8.00 pm.
At 8:00 pm the bus stopped at the Bus Terminal.
Couldn’t believe it because I come from the land of “Unforeseen Circumstances”

The entire thread is made of half truths and the conflating of issues. I am not exactly sure what your motive is, but this is an extremely prejudiced opinion far from the fact.
When I worked on a report on the origins of violence in the north last year was when I lost all sympathy. They actively incubated a monster that is beyond being tamed now.
I'm going to reveal something in this thread that I guarantee most of you have never heard of before.

First off, we are a very classist people and operate an unwritten caste system. We assume messengers, drivers and cleaners are sub-human and are undeserving of our attention or interaction.
There's a kind of country culture that makes this possible. America's does.
Nigeria's doesn't.
Question is, how can one build a company culture that allows this happen in spite of the country culture?
