Nigeria's Resident Doctors Resume Work After Strike Suspensions.

A bill proposing five years of mandatory service for Nigeria's medical graduates to address the country's brain drain of medical professionals has been met with resistance from doctors' unions and civil society organizations. The government hopes to recoup its investment in the education system and address the problem of brain drain. The country has only 24,000 licensed doctors for a population of 218 million, and the UK is the biggest recruiter of Nigerian doctors. The lack of healthcare technology and equipment, stagnant wages, and job insecurity are driving doctors to leave. Diaspora remittances have emerged as Nigeria's leading source of foreign earnings, excluding the oil industry.
