“Being a medical doctor in Nigeria is slavery” – Physician cries out

A Nigerian medical doctor has expressed frustration over an alleged requirement that doctors must complete five years after registration before obtaining a Certificate of Good Standing, which is used in the process of verifying their professional standing when seeking to practise abroad.In a video circulating online, the doctor said the reported policy could affect medical graduates who have spent millions of naira preparing for international examinations and pursuing opportunities to practise outside Nigeria.
