Meghan Markle has revealed that she is 43% Nigerian.

The Duchess of Sussex disclosed this on the latest episode of her podcast, Archetypes.

While having a conversation with Senegalese-American actress and comedian Issa Rae, Nigerian-American comedian and writer Ziwe Fumudoh, and professor Emily Bernards, the Duchess of Sussex told listeners that she took a genealogy test which revealed that she is 43% Nigerian.

"I just had my genealogy done a couple years ago," Meghan explains, as her guests eagerly ask her to share what the results entailed.

The Duchess then proudly says "I'm 43% Nigerian" to the shock of Ziwe, who shouts "No way!".

Ziwe, who is Nigerian-American, then asks: "Are you serious? This is huge. Igbo, Yoruba, do we know?"

The Duchess of Sussex then tells her listeners: "I'm going to start to dig deeper into all of this because anyone that I've told, especially Nigerian women, are just like, what?"

After absorbing the bombshell revelation, Nigerian-American Ziwe continues to joke that the Duchess looks like "her aunt Ouzo" in a heart-warming clip between the pair.

The Nigeria Medical Association (NMA) has said that only 24, 000 actively licensed physicians are remaining in the country following a recent brain drain. 

 

NMA President, Ojinmah Uche who disclosed this during a policy dialogue on Nigeria’s health sector brain drain and its implications for sustainable child and family health service delivery, said the 24,000 actively licensed physicians are taking care of Nigeria's over 200 million population.

 

Speaking at the event organised by the National Institute for Policy and Strategic Studies in collaboration with the Partnership for Advancing Child and Family Health at Scale project of the development Research and Projects Centre (dRPC), Ojinmah noted that based on the World Health Organisation established minimum threshold, a country needs a mix of 23 doctors, nurses and midwives per 10,000 population to deliver essential maternal and child health services.

 

He added; 

 

 “Only one doctor is incredibly available to treat 30,000 patients in some states in the South; while states in the North are as worse as one doctor to 45,000 patients. In some rural areas, patients have to travel more than 30 kilometers from their abodes to get medical attention where available thus Nigeria making access to healthcare a rarity.”

 

Ojinmah further blamed the brain drain on poor funding of the health sector, stressful medical education, non-existent house job slots, difficulty in gaining employment, poor remuneration, unnecessary and unhealthy inter-professional rivalry, insecurity, among others.
