I just saw an advert concerning the federal medical center Owerri ongoing recruitment for residency programme. but these words below surprised me:

Applications are invited from suitably qualified
candidates to fill the vacancy positions for
Residency programmes at Federal Medical Centre,
Owerri in the following departments:
Paediatrics
Family Medicine
Internal Medicine
Obstetrics and Gynaecology
Surgery
Anaesthesiology
Ophthalmology
Otorhinolaryngology (ENT)
Morbid Anatomy
Haematology
Chemical Pathology
Microbiology
Radiology

To qualify for appointment, candidates must
possess primaries, NYSC discharge certificate
and current practicing license.

now, my question is this, when did microbiology graduates start using practicing license? i am a bsc microbiology holder and i really want to apply.

It all started when Ebola broke out. Lol.....

On a more serious note, find out and get in touch with the national association of your profession and you'll be detailed on what to do and how to go about it. All the best....

well, thank you. i don't really know if i can get the license immediately. I need it urgently.

The truth is microbiologists are being sidelined because we are not a recognised professional body, just an association (Nigerian Society of Microbiology). The former president Late Prof. Akpan died trying to achieve this goal but the dream died with him, nobody is fighting for it again (i think, and if they are its without zeal). The SLTs (Science Laboratory Technologists) have been professionalised and they operate with license but Microbiologists dont.

Bro, apply you don't need a licence, ur ability in interview is your only hope. God will favor you in Jesus name

Morbid Anatomy( Histopathology)
Chemical Pathology
Microbiology ( Medical microbiology option)
and Haematology , are all branches under Medical Laboratory Sciences........ They're talking about Medical Laboratory Scientists that specialized in Medical Microbiology....... So I don't think you can apply

Nigerians are damn funny.You saw an advert for residency programmes, yet, you still used
the word 'maybe'.




It's an advert for resident doctors who wish to specialise in medical microbiology.
