Nigeria’s Minister of Health, Muhammad Ali Pate, says other nations recruit health workers from Nigeria because of the level of training available in the country.

Ali Pate stated this on Thursday during a briefing organized by the Ministry of Information and National Orientation in Abuja.

“There is no country in the world today that has enough health workers for what it needs, that is why they are poaching from us. That is why the developed nations are recruiting our doctors because we train our doctors, our nurses, our health workers so well, that’s why they are being recruited.

“So, what are we doing about it? We manage migration policy whereby we acknowledge that some will leave but let’s train more and the expansion of the training and that requires collaboration with the Ministry of Education but also the states themselves should have training institutions”.

The minister also appreciated those who have decided to stay back and serve the country.

“There are many health workers who could have left but are actually serving in this country because they really want to contribute in Nigeria. I saw many of them and we should appreciate them.”
