The federal government has granted approval for eight medical staff to undergo foreign training in various fields. However, there is concern that these staff members may not return to Nigeria after completing their programs. In response, the Coordinating Minister of Health and Social Welfare, Prof. Ali Pate, issued a plea to the trainees, urging them to honor their commitment to return and serve their country.
The Ministry's Director of Information, Deworitshe Patricia, conveyed Prof. Pate's message, emphasizing the importance of the trainees' patriotic duty to Nigeria. Prof. Pate reminded them that their training and skills were nurtured by Nigeria and that they should not merely become economic migrants in foreign countries.
Furthermore, the statement highlighted the government's efforts to improve the working conditions of existing healthcare professionals in Nigeria. Prof. Pate stressed the importance of avoiding negative perceptions of Nigeria abroad and emphasized the government's commitment to constructive migration policies.
The issuance of a Statement of Need to the United States Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates signifies the government's acknowledgment of the specialized training needed in Nigeria and facilitates the processing of J-1 Exchange Visitor Visa applications for the trainees. The trainees are expected to fulfill their commitment to return to Nigeria and serve their country for at least two years after completing their training.
