Declare state of emergency in medical sector, Maharaj ji urges Timubu

‎Founder, One love family, Satguru Maharaj Ji, has called on president Bola Tinubu to declare a national emergency in the medical sector to help curb the exodus of medical personnel.

Maharaj ji stated this in a statement made available to journalists on Wednesday, according to him this will help restore confidence in hospitals, and protect Nigerians from external influences that undermine national health.
‎
He also in the statement called on Nigeria’s Minister of Health, Professor Muhammad Ali Pate, to take urgent action to resolve the ongoing crisis in the country’s health sector or resign.
‎
‎ Maharaj Ji highlighted the prolonged strike by doctors across Nigeria, noting that the strike has caused severe disruptions in hospitals and led to preventable deaths.
‎
‎He emphasized that the Minister’s role is to prioritize the lives of citizens over political considerations.
‎
‎“The Minister must rise above political sentiment and act decisively,” the statement said. “Nigerians are dying daily due to inaction. Silence and alignment with political agendas cannot continue.”
‎
‎Maharaj Ji pointed to the ongoing brain drain of Nigerian medical professionals, who continue to leave for foreign countries seeking better conditions.
‎
‎He then warned that recurrent strikes make it easier for other nations to recruit Nigeria’s skilled healthcare workers.
‎
Maharaj Ji demanded that Professor Pate outline specific measures taken to address systemic issues in the health sector and provide a timeline for their implementation.
‎
‎The spiritual leader further warned that leaders of the doctors’ associations and the Ministry of Health bear moral responsibility for lives lost during the strike.
‎
‎Maharaj Ji also stressed the importance of alternative health practices,adding that countries such as China, Japan, and Vietnam rely on roots and plants for preventive care.

He however stated that Nigeria could integrate similar approaches to strengthen its healthcare system.
‎
‎He said “Professor Muhammad Ali Pate must either confront the crisis with bold measures or step aside for someone who will. Nigerian lives cannot wait.”
