Even Ghana, Togo and other west african countries ensure that you cannot buy potent drugs from a pharmacy without a drug prescription. But in Nigeria, you don't need to see a doctor to buy any drug in the pharmacy. so how did doctors cause that? it is the doctors fault that people are mixing drugs in idumota. it is doctors fault people that sell drugs in onitsha. it is doctors fault that linda ikeji is pregnant. it is the doctors fault that Dino jumped out of a moving car. it is the doctors fault that Davido is dating Chioma. it is the doctors fault that your wife gave you fish instead of shaki. In fact Buhari should stop blaming GEJ, just blame the doctors. Bad belle 14 Likes |

"This could be attributed to the ubiquitous availability of drugs without regards for locality due mainly to the activities of drug vendors who dispense these drugs without prescriptions.” Is this not hypocrisy? Who sells/dispenses this hard drugs without prescription? Is there any pharmacy or chemist shop without a licence which was ultimately given to them by pharmacists? Who is now corrupt? 7 Likes |

Dr Ransome kuti really inflicted devastating damage on the Nigerian health sector for decades to come. This is not the first time I have read about his infamous tenure as minister of health under the useless IBB. People like IBB and Ransome kuti should never have been born. They met a good system, enjoyed it, and then destroyed it for future generations. 4 Likes |

I thought Doctors are suppose to diagonise an ailment while the phermacist prescribe, but in nigeria the doctors have taken the roles of the phermacist while leaving them with dispensing alone. In sane clime its not done that way. 4 Likes |

Stallion93:Before 1991, pharmacist and doctors enter into service on the same grade level. And Nigeria had better health service those days before IBB came in . Unless the above information is wrong, the current system of indiscriminate doctor supremacy is an anomaly entrenched by a greedy and shortsighted ransome kuti. 4 Likes |

All these still boil down to hate and envy for medical doctors. Do you know why? The Nigerian mentality is 'doctors too dey form'. They are Endangered species as they are not up to 70,000 registered and practising doctors in Nigeria(maybe way less) to cater for 180M Nigerians. So it's very easy to gang up against them. At the end of the day, if by cosmic accident johesu wins, who will suffer? Of course the johesu and the masses. Do you know why and how? At the long run, the FG as usual will back out and privatise the entire sector(just like NEPA). This will push everyone to privatise(run your own business). Doctors will open private hospitals, no more teaching hospitals where the johesu talk. The doctor would employ the essentials that he can pay. He must employ nurses. He wouldn't be able to pay pharmacists so he'll go for pharmacy technicians. He would employ laboratory technicians instead of scientists etc. Then the masses will pay for unsubsidised health care, heavily. Everyone would focus. No more noise. 11 Likes 1 Share |

CSTR1003:Doctors and pharmacists On the same level in the health care sector is an anomaly, doesn't happen anywhere in the world, Pharmacists should focus on the pharmaceutical industries if they want more pay but from the cofers of the FG; doctors sit on top of the food chain and JOHESU is enough, what do they want with the NMA? This entire argument is baseless, I hope the government gives them serious sanctions so they won't come up with this rubbish again 2 Likes |

Many are mad but few are roaming. After this illogical article who would dare entrust the leadership of the system to one of his kind ? So it was doctors - not unscrupulous pharmacists, not illegal importers, not road roadside chemists and patent medical dealers, not a dysfunctional social system, not high unemployment and war in North Eastern Nigeria but doctors kwa, that exacerbated opioid use in Nigeria. What a brilliant insight into the epidemiology of the opioid crisis. The writer must have suffered severe birth asphyxia at delivery. What a dunce. 12 Likes |

It's important to note that Nigerians aren't saints. Imagine a whole Pharmacist, our caring nurses joined a union which includes hospital gate man, ward orderlies etc to fight a course. Do you think it's pure? Within the same union, Pharmacists can't stand Pharm technicians(no comparison), Bsc nurses and RNs are battling, Lab scientists and Lab technicians are at war, massive one. No matter how long a catechist works in a church(even he can say mass off hand), he can never be seen as a priest. Same goes to court clerk and judge..etc. 7 Likes |

The author should have just stated his/her hatred of doctors instead of using many words to write rubbish. 1) NAFDAC chased out of the ports has nothing to do with it being headed by a doctor. It was a move done to improve pretty efficiency. 2) Corruption in NACA is not because it's head is a Doctor. |

Mumu write up. There is a department of Food and Drugs in the Federal Ministry of Health that is being headed by a pharmacist and that department is responsible for advising the honorable minister of health on all matters relating to drugs administration plus writing all his speeches and press releases so if the minister messes up it cos the pharmacists advised him to tow that line. Let the other health workers join politics too so they can get ministerial appointments too. After all Ngige got minister of labor cos of his political affiliation and Fashola minister of works so stop posting crap 2 Likes |

Thank you o. Even midwives don’t earn same as nurses and med lab scientist earn more than lab technicians. They keep claiming they are not asking for parity but when you compare the adjusted wage increment they brought you will see through their lies. They also lie abt how much doctors earn as well. No doctor is employed on GL13 but on GL 12 while an house officer and NYSC doc on level 10 while there is no GL 11 in the civil service meforkene: 2 Likes |
