“
Remember that there was an era of brain drain in 1988 to 2000. And physiotherapy was one of most affected professions. It was as if we were training for export. There was a particular set of my students in 1990. Only one out of over 20 of them is left in Nigeria practicing. And they are doing great abroad.
