 Military judge suppresses Khalid Sheikh Mohammed’s FBI confession in 9/11 case A military judge has excluded a confession that alleged Sept. 11 attacks mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed gave to FBI agents nearly 20 years ago, ruling that the statements were not made voluntarily. The decision is a setback for the U.S. government's long-running effort to prosecute Mohammed, who is accused of helping develop the plot to hijack planes and crash them into the World Trade Center and Pentagon. Mohammed remains detained at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, alongside other defendants awaiting trial. Lt. Col.

Medical Doctors Advance Solutions To Tackle Mass Migration of Health Workers



In recent times, there has been an increased number of doctors and health workers migrating to other parts of the world from Nigeria in search of greener pastures posing serious threat to the health sector in the country. 

As such, the 2023 Annual General Meeting and Scientific Conference of the Anambra State Branch of the Nigerian Medical Association, (NMA) is seeking the expertise of relevant stakeholders to find solutions to this worrisome trend affecting the health sector and ways to advance the system and improve health care delivery.

Speaking on the theme of the conference, "Mass emigration of doctors and other health workers: the origin, challenges and solution", the President, Nigeria Medical Association, Dr. Rowland Ojinmah, identified poor renumeration, high taxation, difficulty in gaining employment, insecurity, stressful medical education and poor funding of health sector among other challenges as reasons for brain drain in the medical field. 

To advance solutions, Dr. Ojinmah asked government to implement and ensure adequate funding of health sector, full implementation of National Health Act and Medical Residency Training Act, privatize the health sector and institute the health sector development bank and increase renumeration of the health workers.

In her address, the Anambra State Chairman of NMA, Dr. Jane Ezeonu, said that the conference offers opportunity for continuing medical education and professional development, lamenting that the increasing number of doctors and health workers who leave the country is disastrous to the profession.

Contributing, the Head of Service, Barrister Theodora Igwegbe, said the theme is apt in order to curb the mass exodus of health workers, explaining that the state government has invested in improving healthcare infrastructure, increased remuneration and improved health care initiative which will help solve the ugly trend.
