This came weeks after Senator Dino Melaye described leadership irresponsibility, of Nigerian government’s importation of Chinese doctors into the country amid public outcry.
Melaye, a former Kogi West senator, also said that the action was a gross disrespect of the Nigeria Medical Association (NMA).
