He said:" right now, the world needs 10 million health Workers to attain Universal Health Coverage.

"Gobally, the  health sector runs deficit of 5.3 million health workers, out of 10 million health workers required to achieve the Universal Health Coverage.


" The one year experience, as President of WMA as intriguing and satisfactory, having added more experience to his medical profile and also made remarkable impacts globally.

 “ As  the immediate past World Medical President said, I had the  opportunity to make impact at the global level.

"My Joy today, is that I have been able to prove to them that  Africa has a Voice. Nigeria has a voice  and Edo State has a voice, and the people from Africa can also make impact in the World Medical Association. I think that  has been one of the greatest  Revelation in my tenure”.

 Dr Osahon Enabulele stressed that, the consistent pushing for Resident Health Care System has attracted global acceptance which  would encourage Medical Professionals and Physicians mostly in Africa to stay in their Countries and reduce the brain drain which is currently a menace in Africa due to unfavorable working condition.


 He stated that out of the 5.3 million health workers that are lacking in the health system globally, Africa needs about 3.5million health workers to measure up with other contemporary continents in the World.



Dr. Enabulele asserted:" I have been pushing  our leaders to create a descent working environment  in addition to competitive wages for health workers and Physicians  in Africa, so we can have a lot of them stay in our continent, rather than always  leaving our People in Africa to suffer for health conditions.

“So these are some of the global health realization that has come to stay and am happy that even the World Health Organization has accepted it in its latest lunch  in what we called  “the global  health  care workers compass, which is supposed to obligate government workers across the World.

" More than ever before to get committed to the issue of health workers who are striving more than ever before to ensure that Citizens and humanity are well catered for are also provided for.”

Dr. Enabulele also decried the high level of violence against medical workers which according to him is also being addressed as bills are being sponsored to ensure policy instrument which  are capable to protect medical workers should be put in place.

" As part of my achievement, as World Medical President , I  had put in place  Global Excellence Award (GEA),  to distinguished medical workers who are doing exceedingly well, and to encourage them in the Medical Profession.

 " I initiated  the Dublin Roundtable and Leadership development series  to help  build the capacity of those in the health care system.

“All these and more, I have put in place so that we have capable leaders who are prepared to build the health system in more fundamental ways.

" The World Health Organization is working with the World Medical Association to see how we can together get to a point of realization and adopt it in World Health Assembly which will be holding in Geneva.”


Also, when Dr. Osahon Enabulele  arrived,  the that were on ground started giving a resounding welcome home to him, with the Benin cultural troups, dancing to the tune of a proud father welcoming his Son home, with members of his Medical Professionals along with Student Doctors.
