Before you cast your judgement on him...

Remember that over 450 survivors he successfully operated on are still grateful to him.

So?! Because of that we should encourage quackery?

DrObum:

So, it's the doctors that encouraged people to do patent medicine dealership, whatever that means though?

How did Adewole encourage it?
If you want to call him out, please enlighten us asking the line.

You obviously did not follow the activities of the Adewole administration as minister of health. The man wanted to introduce what he termed tier classification of patent medicine dealers. He had about 3 categories of people he wanted to issue license to operate patent medicine stores. These included; healthcare professionals who are not pharmacists, graduate of any course who wanted to open a drug store and then primary school certificate holders who also wanted to open a drug business! That was the reasoning of a minister who should know better the implication of such system on our healthcare system. Where else in the world is it done He made that proposal despite the fact that we now have more pharmacy schools producing pharmacists! A reasonable minister of health in Nigeria of today should be advocating for closure of all drug stores that are not pharmacies!

Why I'm relating Adewole's action with the topic is because he made that proposal in order to spite pharmacists and I'm sure he had the support of some NMA members (except the smart few who understands the negative impact such would have on medical practice), so he and those who supported him should not complain about quack doctors operating in Nigeria since they didn't see anything wrong in quacks operating drug stores!

Meanwhile, I don't support quackery in any field and if I ever have my way at the helm of affairs in this country, I'll make sure I sanitize the system.

He was even employed by the government �, no background check or paper verification na WA oh

.may be through quota system

Do you have evidence to support this claim of some members of NMA supporting the actions of the then minister?

DrObum:

I know that many didn't support him, but I have evidence of some that supported him!

Where him picture?

Kaodek:

2. Lol, You believed some lives were lost but disagreed he did 500 surgeries.
3. I will never support illegalities, his case should be treated specially in a way he will learn his lessons and trained more aswell....
4.He's only a victim here because he never had a certificate.
5. We care ..God cures (Medical practitioners)

1. Sorry
2. Its ludicrous to say that he performed 500 surgeries. .. is he the only doctor on ground.
3. Treated specially, how, for murdering 46 people... forging a certificate... treating patients without a licence.... We should now kill cow for him
4. "He is only a victim...." I beg to differ, there are 500 victims in this story and he isnt one.
5. Ok

true talk

dominique:


That's remarkable but the Mustapha that was caught confessed to have forged his certificate. How can one now differentiate between an original and a forged MBBS certificate?

Thé minister for health Who Advised doctors to venture into farming and tailoring if they Dont get a job in Nigeria should be able to give à suitable answer

Nice

udomoh:
It is part of the patients bill of rights introduced by Osinbajo in 2018. Patients now have rights to ask for doctors qualifications even before consultations.

Know your rights.

They should organise an association that will be responsible for checking all private clinics in Nigeria. Millions of fake Dr are in Nigeria.
Those that claim they studied abroad should also be looked into seriously.

Sonia2002:
Can u imagine? He probably went to med school but didn't pass, now his entire family thinks their son is a doctor.

Wasting innocent lives.

didn't you read, he didn't go to med school

He didn't attend med school. His highest qualification is NABTEB not WAEC. He couldn't have gotten into med school with NABTEB.
He probably picked up the skills while he worked as a janitor/auxiliary nurse in a clinic. He is quite an intelligent guy to be able to accomplish this feat.

Doctors in the medieval era didn't go to universities, they simply learnt as apprentist to their masters who was a sheyman or surgeon. It is unconventional but a very effective way of learning.
