The Ghana Veterinary Medical Association (GVMA)has raised concerns over an alarming rate of veterinary doctors migrating to Europe due to poor working conditions.
Dr. (Vet) Theophilus Odoom, Vice President of Ghana Veterinary Medical Association said this in an interview with the media at the sidelines of the association's 50th Biennial Conference in Koforidua. "The few people that we have are willing to work, and because of lack of infrastructure and some of these things most of them are leaving the country.
They are poaching them.
The UK is poaching a lot of our young vets for meat inspections and service in the United Kingdom.
