House Officers are the first resident doctors. They are the first on call, full of energy and hope, often working tirelessly through long shiftsโsometimes without even a proper meal. Yet in 2025, many of them are still unpaid for months. This is unacceptable.
In the past 20 years, Nigeria has lost over 20,000 doctors to brain drain, driven by poor welfare and inadequate infrastructure. We cannot keep repeating the same mistakes and expect different outcomes.
We kindly call on the @Fmohnigeria (Federal Ministry of Health and Social Welfare) to resolve this issue and continue implementing policies that will improve our health systems.
