This country eez a mess. Strike everywhere, meanwhile their medical staff in public hospitals treat people like shait so I have no sympathy for them. Bloody baggars

My brother it is God that is purnishing our people... I have a resident Doctor friend that castigated GEJ all through his presidency, I don't wish him bad but I pray God to forgive him.

You will never see Passingshot And Omo Akara, Abi na omenka here.....

Omenka has already wailed about this. He can't even believe what he's seeing

Instead of addressing there issues you are trying intimidation , this is how a country loose there best talents due to the stupidity of political appointees
This man will soon loose his job anyway
This is why nigeria doctors who have been trained with our money are helping other countries instead of giving back to nigeria if this story is true shame on you Adewole.

The circular directs the CMDs to REPLACE the Doctors that have VOLUNTARILY WITHDRAWN their services, it doesn't say anything about sacking anyone. The onus lies with the Doctors to return back to training, they should be grateful for being giving the opportunity to train in a FG establishment. There are many Doctors waiting for the opportunity to train.

We have to be fair to all. Nigerian health workers are the least paid in the world. enough of this rubbish from the federal government

Guy!! Stop lying.. He was the one that started the rubbish... How pdp sympathisers can be so quick to forget...

They were sacked because this government officials do not need their services. They go to London

omenka:
News of this magnitude and only one "aproko247.com" carries it??

I'd holster my weapon for now until we get a more credible source. But in the mean time, if there's any truth to this, I'd say it's a poor decision from the FG- even the Ineffectual Buffoon did it with lecturers under the thug Nyiesom Wike and got his ass whooped severely. Baba shouldn't fall for the same shiit.


Edit:

Confirmed on PT.

This one is a BIG NO for me. Baba should order a withdrawal of that circular ASAP. Aint no need courting enemies unnecessarily at this time. I believe the issues surrounding their agitation can be resolved without drawing more blood.

Please reconsider your decision Mr Minister.

God bless you so well that you will not know where to keep the blessing.

Confused nation....
U forget that they have a united body that regulates their activities,no doctor will apply for the vacant post.

chanji indeed

DonMaxxy:
They asked CHANGE for their MONTHLY CHANGE and CHANGE replied by CHANGING them...

How can you beat a child and ask him not to cry...

Truth be told, bro, sometimes these Doctors always think they have the monopoly of strike. That whenever they strike, they must collect what they require 100%.

They are not the only civil / public servants in Nija na.

Doctors have no immunity? Federal Govt & Buhari led administration should tender justice with mercy. Sacking resident Doctors shouldn't be the best option when we're yearning for employment!

Fashola started the trend.

This is d same shameless govt that told banks not to sack anymore.

I wonder if we r still in a democracy??

I'm not surprised, I knew this was what d dullard will turn out to be.

Most of those doctors would hv voted for CHANGE. At last Change is here.

Illiterate president...

seunmsg:
The circular only talked about replacing trainee doctors that have voluntarily withdrawn from the residency training program. Can't see any sack order there.

Hahahahahahahaha

The circular is being polite. They are learned and won't use plain and straight forward wording, If you are on strike and do not report for duty, it is assume you voluntarily withdrew from the residency training program.

Indeed CHANGE is fighting back. Welcome to the new Nigeria, as much as they tried to paint GEJ's tenure as bad, he did not fire striking doctors. Nigerians are getting the change they deserve.

olatade:
An apt move. These agents of death have turned our hospitals to mogues with their incessant strikes whereas their private practice is flourishing. And they keep drawing mouth-watering remunerations for work not done.

Private practices flourishing where?
I know of some that make money but many are closing down due to low patronage. Many people cannot even afford private services.

Only the big names are still flourishing the others dem dey hear am. Guy it's not as easy as you think.

Maybe you can afford private services but many Nigerians cannot. It's expensive. Even those who visit gov't hospitals can not afford the fees talk less of private.

If private were as lucrative as you think who would work for gov't. The said residents 're the man power of the hospitals where they work. Do you think it's easy to replace them. It's all about knowledge and expertise.

Fashola started this trend and I knew it would continue because of the prevailing situation In the country. Many doctors are under employed because they have no choice.

I can assure you that if the threat is carried out fresh doctors would be available to fill the gap but a lot of trial and error with your lives would ensue due to the knowledge gap.
You think its bad wait for more.


My opinion though

otukpo:
He will be tired if this is the way he wants to go.

I would vote him again..... And again and again....... What's wrong with that directive.......... Y should doctors go on strike, is it not these same doctors tht reject patients tht r in a life and death situation?? Abegee we have done things for too long for a long time, that doing the right thing now feels abnormal, if they don't want to work there r a thousand and one doctors out there that are ready to work

In another news, Joint Health Sector Union (JOHESU) starts a 7-day warning strike on Wednesday 22/06/2016 by 12:01am

doctors should understand that everyone is suffering in nigeria e.g police, nurses, army, cleaner, civil servants e.t.c no one is more important than the other. As useless as our police are..we still need them and they are working hard despite their colleagues overseas getting paid over 1million naira per month for the service they offer. make doctors go chill. what if every other government worker decides to go on strike? would they doctors even survive?

Sack them and let mortality rate be on increase

EVILFOREST:
SOUTHERN Doctors should Report the matter to the AVENGERS. ..


NORTHERN Doctors should Report the matter to BOKO

and let the western doctors report the matter to the....
O.P.C

To start with resident doctor are not yet doctors but doctor on training, they are the ones we call baby doctors, so the tittle of this tread is misleading.

The residents doctors are still students but get paid more than level 12 officers in federal civil service.

Residency must not be done in government hospital but for you to be a specialist you must go through residency, so any babydoctor that feel cheated should go to a private hospital for residency where he will paid 25k allawee

casket:
For 2nd time in 2 years ..threading that unfruitful path again.

I wish IFA all the best...no shaking for me though

I see the sack ish as a bargaining power for Prof Adewole though.
NARD would be asked to call off the strike before FG can withdraw the sack circular.

I concur. It also seems as if they have IFA over a barrel from some discussions I gleaned today with some of my colleagues in the UCH.

But this your handle though...

90% of the people commenting here dont know who resident doctors are. They just saw "doctors" and ran to start blabbing

Residency is a training period for medical professionals. These guys are not even yet confirmed for practice and they are already striking Abeg this is a very welcome act by fg. Doctors own for naija don too much. They strike at the slightest issue

U obviously have no friggin' idea of what u're talking about. It is ignorant people like u that come into forums like this and set fire to the proverbial powderkeg with absolutely no idea of facts before opening ur yap and start yarning 'corpu-emesis'.

Oga please park well!!!
