The Founder, Flying Doctors Healthcare Investment Company, Dr Ola Brown, has said that Nigeria’s economic challenges can be solved through strategic ongoing investments in the healthcare sector.

She explained that investing in healthcare would serve as a multiplier effect that would boost the economy, create jobs and contribute to overall development.

According to her, When we invest in healthcare, we are not just investing in healthcare but in the economy. The largest employer of skilled labour in the entire world is the NHS in the UK. While highlighting the four key reasons why young Nigerians are relocating from the country with their families, Dr Ola Brown, whose company invests in technology-enabled healthcare businesses, fintech startups as well as public-private partnerships in healthcare infrastructure projects in Africa, opined that it is possible to address those concerns through sustained investments in the healthcare sector.

“The reason I link healthcare to both security and employment is that if you have a job, you won’t go and join Boko Haram since you won’t be idle. If Nigeria is able to invest in a sector that has massive job creation potential then we will be able to solve both the security problem and the unemployment problem.
