Speaker of the house of representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila has stated that the legislature is working to ensure that Nigeria does not keep losing medical doctors to other countries.<\/p>\n

This was made known on Thursday by Gbajabiamila when\u00a0some members of the National Association of Resident Doctors (NARD)\u00a0led by Emeka Orji, the president, paid him a visit at the national assembly.<\/p>\n

The speaker said the number of doctors leaving the country is \u201cvery scary\u201d, adding that \u201cdefinitely something must be wrong\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou have identified that to be the issue of emoluments and salaries<\/a>, that\u2019s always a very important issue. If you work, you must get paid, and you must get paid a good salary,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Gbajabiamila, however, said while it is important to provide better welfare for doctors, the country is facing a revenue shortfall.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a worldwide phenomenon, right now everything is going down. Countries are not making as much revenue as they should. And I\u2019m sure a lot of doctors that leave the shores of Nigeria<\/a> in search of greener pastures, many of them will be happy, many of them will also realise it\u2019s not so easy on the other side either,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat I would like to encourage you to do is to tarry a while, be a little bit more patient, and stay. As long as you have our ears here as your legislature, we will always, as best as possible, come to your aid.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo, let\u2019s put a stop to this brain drain as best as we can whilst we, on this side, try to make the environment a lot easier for you.\u201d<\/p>\n

The speaker added that health will receive priority as lawmakers consider the 2023 budget.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ll have a look at what percentage we have in this year\u2019s budget for the health sector. We got the budget about a week ago, I\u2019m still going through it, but I will zero in on health to find out what the percentage is, and how far away we are from the Abuja declaration,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI cannot promise that here. If we have fallen short, we will augment it, I cannot make that promise because it depends on a whole host of other things, but we will try our best to at least, come close. We will try our best to look at it objectively within the context of the revenue that is available to the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are so many things going on right now. That\u2019s where the sacrifice comes in. Oil theft, dwindling revenue, the Ukraine war, and so many other things and everybody\u2019s competing for the lean revenue, but we know our priority areas, education, and health, are priority areas. We\u2019ll do everything we can to make sure that as best as we can, we come as close to the Abuja declaration, as we can.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe COVID-19 pandemic exposed the underbelly of our health sector, so we must not be caught napping again, and whatever we need to do, we must do.\u201d<\/p>\n

In his remarks, Orji called for improved working conditions for resident doctors and adequate funding for residency training.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
