The Nigerian Association of Resident Doctors (NARD) is disagreed to plan by the federal government to bring in a team of 18 Chinese medical experts to assist Nigeria in the fight against coronavirus.
President association, Dr Aliyu Sokomba, said in a statement yesterday that the move was illegal as all doctors coming into the country are supposed to be licensed by the Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria.

He advised government to forfeit the plan forthwith and immediately engage all key relevant Nigerian medical experts including NARD and present the full intents and purpose of the planned importation of the Chinese experts for full evaluation, cost-benefit analysis and consensus on the best option.
Sokomba stated that “The attempt to import Human resources for Health from China into Nigeria where many qualified medical doctors and other cadres of health workers are yet to be gainfully employed is the height of insensitivity and disservice on the part of the Federal Government and their advisers.
