The consultancy status is enough for me.


Why go on strike because of Doctor's salary? Your own salary no do you? Baba say something else jor!
Read that part of the article again. They are not embarking on a strike action because of doctors' salary but because the FG is yet to start paying them their new salary structure.

Health sector wil surely be in disarray.

Seriously,it is only in Nigeria,the medical Consultants see themselves as small gods in the hospital.As such every dick and harry wants to become a consultant.Govt spends so much money on training Doctors.Other health professionals too feel cheated with this,they are jst like 'spectators' in the health sector.The doctors are being paid while under training and they stil want to collect specialist allowance after becoming consultants.The residency training shd be restricted to only teaching hosp and the arrogance being displayed by the consultants as being the alpha and omega of health sector shd be checked forthwith.

Onyebuchi destroyed the health sector and ran away. Now even the accountants shall become consultants and the laboratory technicians. The ordinary people will suffer cos there is no difference between LASTMA and Road Safety again.

Dis is of perfect timing. Understand dat we are all diff bodies in d health sector. No one will be infringing on d other as consultants. At least every health worker body can be a director and not assistant directors and also CMDs. We alws want to av hospitals like d developed countries but not recognizing others. Check out their consultations. D only same shd be d administrative part.

Pharmacists, if U want to cut out, no probs. I guess U'll just av ya own union. We aren't competing wt NMA's salary scale. But JOHESU's own was approved which led NMA into strike. And coz of dat d court overruled it, which is not fair. Our salary can't be same wt d drs but they must pay us wat they promised us.

If NMA goes on strike coz of dis, then they've made demselves selfish unreasonable children and confused professionals. Don't blame Jonathan, ask Onyebuchi aw far. He started dis madness. Even d drs knows he's cause.

Thank U FG. Long live GEJ!

Good,
We will now have consultant pharmacist, and consultant pharmacy technician, consultant CHEW, consultant nurse assistant and endless list. Has anybody thought about definition of consultancy?. What is d implications in a confused populace where even the carpenter who works in the hospital is called a doctor!. How many of u will take your child to consultant nurse for surgery, it will noe begin to happen because our mothers in the village who understands little will be confused!. A consultant is a final advisor or authority! Then will have many final authorities in management of same patients. The consultant doctor gives orders to the nurse to use honey to treat his patient but consultant nurse is oga too, so she says no, and tells junior nurse to use eusol!, who suffers? The patient.
The doctor prescribes a drug for the patient he has been managing for years, and the pharmacist only dispense, but know they will want to change the drugs because they are now final authority in pharmacy without even knowing the details about the patient!!!!!! Who suffers?
When you put stupid people in gov. You get stupid circulars, and NIGERIANS suffer. Why consultants now? It is because of the specialist allowance not because they know better than the doctor.
While it takes the doctor 4-6 six extra years to become specialist, these allied health worker want to call themselves specialist after 6 months CME.
Abroad, there are no consultant nurses or pharmacist in the HOSPITALS, they only work in elderly homes where there are no permanent doctors. So they call them consultants when pharmacist are called to monitor drugs.

This is so wrong! The doctor still has the final authority. Just like it is in the other climes.

The doctor prescribes a drug for the patient he has been managing for years, and the pharmacist only dispense, but know they will want to change the drugs because they are now final authority in pharmacy without even knowing the details about the patient!!!!!! Who suffers?

You're such an ignoramus! Pharmacists don't change drugs, they have expanded roles now and are not limited to dispensing.. Pharm techs can dispense..

It took Olumide Akintayo 6 years to become a consultant pharmacist. Use Google, its everywhere.

People who haven't left the shores of their villages are quick to predict what happens in the west. Thanks to social media.

Brove you need to do research b4 you jump into conclusion, all what you have stated and I mean all Is wrong Gibberish+Rubbish, we do have consultants in every medical field in London. You are talking about nursing with the knowledge of Health Care workers.
When you say Doctors what Doctor? U failed to use the term Medical Doctor
I worked in the NHS England for 5 good years 2002-2007 as a medical staffing officer ,so I can tell you with Authority that your arguments are flawed
Consultant is anybody you go and meet for Consultancy, so do the Maths
If you have to meet me for advice in any field for consultancy then I would be a consultant. We even have consultants who are architects, we have consultant clinicians, Consultant pharmacist, Consultant Psychotherapists, Human resources Consultants, Consultant gynocologist. the list goes on so what's the Big deal
This is simple victory for common sense.
