| Abstract: | The main work-related experiences during his 15 years` stay in Nigeria are outlined by Dr. R Parnis; his first posting in Abeokuta, where he was the first surgical specialist. Then he was transferred to Ibadan, a much larger and sophisticated town of million people. It was not all plain sailing by any means; water shortage, power failures, staff resignations, lack of drugs and instruments. Furthermore, his last three years there were saddened by the tragedy of the Civil War. His third stay was at Kaduna where he was appointed senior lecturer in Surgery at Ahmadu Bello University. Apart from the work and one`s usefulness, Nigeria is attractive for good nature, friendliness and charm of the people. |
