Brain drain a continental challenge -Kagame
KIGALI - President Paul Kagame yesterday said that brain drain is a major challenge that needs to be addressed by governments and institutions on the African continent. The President said this at the opening of the College of Surgeons of East, Central, & Southern Africa’s (COSECSA) annual general meeting at Kigali Serena Hotel, where he was also conferred with an honorary fellowship by the college. Kagame underscored that the small number of surgeons in the region should serve as a reminder to encourage medical professionals to enter more challenging fields.
