jpphilips:

As much as I appreciate your counter argument, I still beg to differ as regards your reference to soldiers, every profession enjoys a level of privilege depending on your level of professionalism.

let us stick to the Doctor -soldier analogy, the Soldiers enjoy their perks as well not just doctors, if in doubt, ans the following questions;

Who drives from cotonou to Nigeria without paying a single Govt revenue?
who drives a vehicle for 22yrs and for that period never renewed his papers?
who is that privileged citizen whose kids go to command schools free?
who is that citizen who can access health care anywhere in the country in any military hospital free?
who is that citizen who drives without a license and nobody dare ask him questions?
Who drives on BRT lane?
who scratches your car on the road, confiscates yours while you fix his?
who by an unfortunate accident of their demise in the hands of a civilian and the nation comes to a stop?
who buys land but pays nothing to both state, LGA, Omonile, Obioakkpor and other revenues, by the sign post "MIlitary zone" every evil is kept at bay?
who uses electricity for over 30yrs and never pays his bill and nobody coughs?
who has the power to arrest any civilian and beat the living day light out of you yet nobody coughs?
who enters any public transport and never pays a dime by virtue of his uniform?
who has the right to commit any crime of his choice by virtue of his uniform?
Who is that privileged citizen who is not tried in conventional courts, he is tried by friends and colleagues in the name of court marshal?

If you agree soldiers enjoy some certain privileges, why wont the doctors enjoy theirs?
Doctors have said, leave consultancy for us, anybody who wish to have that tag should kindly enroll in the medical school, is it too much to ask?

very interesting and funny tho laden with absolute facts... Brilliant write up!

I do not blame you.I blame FG.But I still maintain my stand.if you are intelligent enough go and study medicine.

Hearme:

Foolish thought. Next time you want to travel out, place your stethoscope on your neck and fly the plain. When you want to eat food, plant your clinical coat and rice will grow. Talking as if all must study medicine. Who is more idiotic?

Doctors in Nigeria deserve to be paid well especially the specialists. My beef is that most of these folks got into M&S because their parents wanted them to be doctors for egotistical reasons.

I was walking some doctors at Asokoro Gen. Hospital through the basics of ABG(arterial blood gas) analysis and its clinical applications. To my chargrin, they have no clues about what the hell I was talking about outside glancing over it in the textbooks. Are these the doctors that treat patients in the hospital?

Nigeria should train their doctors well and pay them better. Until then, it is pointless engaging in this argument because I believe doctors in Nigeria are currently earning what they are worth. Most of them should be trained more in invasive procedures as well.

Not that they don't know it, just that no hospital in nigeria has equipment for measuringarterial blood gases.

Other countries, it is done routinely, in hospitals here, doctors had to learn to do their jobs without it.

We had to learn to treat stroke without a CT scan available in the first 24hrs.

There are other things that i can mention bit won't.
