Nigeria Brain Drain: The Impact of the “Japa Wave” on Education.

Japa wave is a ripple-effect term but before we go on, let’s be clear on what Japa wave is.

Japa wave is a term used by Nigerians to describe how her people are emigrating, in droves.

Now to the ripple effect of the Japa wave. It is obvious.
Hospitals are emptier. Bankers are overworked.

There are fewer and fewer teachers in classes to impart knowledge. It is obvious. We are suffering a major brain drain.

Brain drain, the phenomenon of mass emigration of talented people from a region or country due to lack of economic opportunities and resources, political instability, and civil unrest has created an alarming lack of qualified professionals in essential fields such as medicine, engineering, science and technology.

As a result, Nigeria’s most vulnerable citizens – orphaned and indigent children – are facing even more hardships than before.

These children are at risk for poverty and underdevelopment without access to quality education and training.

The Impact of Brain Drain on Education in Nigeria

The brain drain from Nigeria has had a severe impact on the country’s educational system. The lack of qualified teachers and experts has been especially detrimental to providing quality education opportunities to many citizens.

This has caused an increase in poverty levels throughout families and communities as there simply aren’t enough positions available for those who do manage to get an education.

Families who don’t have the resources or access to qualified educators are unable to provide their children with quality education which has ultimately led to an increase in orphans in Nigeria facing even greater difficulties when trying to receive an adequate education.

The Plight of Orphans and Indigent Children in Nigeria

Nigeria’s brain drain crisis is having a devastating effect on its most vulnerable populations: orphans and indigent children.

These children don’t have access to quality education due to poverty as many families simply can’t afford even basic school supplies or tuition fees.
They also lack resources available for their care as most orphanages are severely underfunded with inadequate personnel or resources making it impossible for them to receive proper care let alone pursue their dreams or gain access to opportunities that could potentially improve their lives.
