PSN More Reasonable Than NMA? by Samgreguc(m): 12:40am On Jul 17, 2014 |
The DG of the NAFDAC isn't a Pharmacist whereas, the ACT establishing NAFDAC states that the DG must have a good knowledge of Pharmacy,drug and food. Many profession in the health sector gives a good knowledge of drugs and some food but, only Pharmaceutical Science gives you a good knowledge of Pharmacy. This simply means that only a Pharmacist is certified to hold that office but, suprisingly the office is currently being held by a Physician(DR. Paul Orhii). He has good knowledge of drugs but, not of Pharmacy. This alone is a disrespect to the Pharmacists but, did the Pharmaceutical Society of Nigeria(PSN) embark on strike action for it? NO! They continued their good work in the industry because, they know what it will effect on our society. Can that be obtainable from the Nigeria Medical Association(NMA)? A very good question. NMA will rather "kill themselves than commit succide" if such happens to them, not even when the law states otherwise. 50 Likes |

If u want to know if it has been done anywhere use the google. . Simple put, our NMA isn't doing well. Imagine what could have happened if the Pharmacist went on strike. 9 Likes |

Samgreguc:Though I don't want to sound callous but the raw truth is " Pharmacists (or any other Allied Medical Profession) going on strike alone would have little or no impact", the main reason for their coming together to form JOHESU in the hope that their impact would be felt then. Your reason for staying together is the "collective hatred" for Doctors. There is no way a common hatred can successfully keep two or more persons together. You can't decide to marry a girl only because you both hate say "saloon cars". Sadly, That is what JOHESU is. 36 Likes |

Lock down in hospital pharmacies likewise community and industry. Then we'd see how much impact would be felt.. Lol. Common hatred?

NMA is a joke. A pharmacist is a business man, an adminatrator. The rigorous curriculum bestowed that on him. With administrative pharmacy and pharmacoeconomics, you can't go wrong with handing your managerial assignments to a pharmacist. If pharmacology was pharmacy, then pigs would fly. Guess a degree in pharmacy, law, public health, and management would allow the 'doctors' be at peace with a pharmacist being the Minister of Health or the CMD? Its okay, so far its on their side, but foul if otherwise. The heat is on! 13 Likes |

Smh Before you write on any issue I'd advice that you make proper research into the subject matter. One thing you must realise is that the only constant thing in life is change and when. In today's medical world due to the ever growing health challenges and nEed for better care other professionals in the health sector don't just stop at getting first degrees, they are specializing in different areas in their chosen fields to better eqyip them do peform their fxn better. All this is geared towards better patients care. Unfortunately Nigerian Drs see it as a threat to them because they feel if others are granted consultancy rights they will come to their level. There is no point disputing the fact that Drs are leaders in the health care team. The mark of a true leader is to do your job and ensure that ur team mates also do theirs. They cannot do so if they are nor trained to. Nigerian Drs should come down from their egocentric world and emulate what other countries are doing then we would be the better for it. I'll ask why is it that they are always quick to go on strike with any liTtle misunderstanding? Why can't they try every other possible means b4 resrting to strike? what JOHESU is demanding for Is not out of place but it is happening all over the world. As far as I'm concerned this matter is not worth the lives that have been lost and are still being lost everyday due to this strike. 14 Likes |
