hehe..............Senate
President Mr. Bukola Saraki, who is touted as a trained medical doctor,
is not licensed to practice medicine in the United Kingdom, according
to the country’s General Medical Council (GMC). Saraki once claimed he
practiced medicine at Rush Green Hospital, London, after qualifying as a
medical doctor from the University of London in 1988 but that claimed
could not be verified as the hospital closed shop in 1995. He had
previously schooled in Nigeria.
The
GMC, in an email message, signed by Sarah Orr, its Media Relations
Officer, was responding to SaharaReporters’ enquiry about Mr. Saraki’s
status as a medical doctor.
According
to the GMC, all licensed doctors working in the United Kingdom have to
undergo a revalidation process to ensure that their skills are up to
date and they are fit to practice. Majority of doctors, said the GMC,
revalidate every five years, a condition that disqualifies Mr. Saraki
from practicing in the United Kingdom, as he has no licence.
The
Senate President has, as its GMC registration number, 3196713. His name
on the register is Olubukola Adebisi Olabowale (wrongly spelled as
'Alabuwale') Saraki. He was provisionally registered on January 7, 1988,
and became fully registered exactly a year later. He is neither on the
specialist register nor the General Practitioners’ register and
therefore not eligible for validation. His registration/licensing
history, according to the GMC, shows that he was registered on November
16, 2009, without a licence.
Saraki
arrived Nigeria in the early 1990s to engage in NYSC and served in his
father's now-defunct bank Societe General Bank of Nigeria, in 1992, the
Nigeria police arrested and charged him for stealing N500,000 from
customers. According to Saraki's entry on INEC former, he served at SGBN
from 1990-2000. Saraki and other executives of the bank looted SGBN
leading the bank to collapse completely.
