emerich: Striking in d health sector when lives r at stake. Thank God even d so called Dr's r not spared, dats how a doc lost his wife in labour due to strike in my facility, to tell u d truth even d docs themselves r tired of the strike n don't actually want it. Some know d truth n r owning up while some fools r just simply displaying their ignorance n stupidity for the whole world to see at d detriment of some innocent citizens who have the right to better health services n delivery. R nurses and lab scientist oversees not being better paid than Dr's? So y r they not going on strike?
Selfish lots, fighting an unjust course.

emerich:
Information Mr I know it all
NDA was formally 4 years, was just made 5 years some years back. The cadre of officers from captain that when thru d regular course years bck enjoyed a 4 year program.

Djtm: They are just pissing me off!!! Wtf? Our government is a very useless one for this sort of crap to be going on! What's their own concern about how much other specialists are paid? As long as you're paid what you're worth, you shouldn't care about what others earn. If a programmer has worked for a certain number of years, has so much experience under his belt, he has the right to become a consultant programmer. IMO, doctors are overhyped in Nigeria. Well, our leaders do not give a sh1t, so people can continue to die as long as they can afford to go abroad once they have a slight headache.

Onlinebizexpert: Do I blame her no.........


If she knew that what it took me to pass a test of five marks in medical school is the same as what it took her to pass a degree exam of 100 marks

What is keshi doing that he is demanding a salary of 10 million naira per month, if it were to be doctors even churches and mosques would go on strike

What did a senator read that his salary can foot the salaries of 25 professors of medicine


If people knew that the fight to answer consultant by other medically inclined professions is simply a ploy to assume power

Having another consultant In the hospital is the same as having two captains in a ship

I will not blame funke she is trying to sell her newspaper by writing such a demeaning article to the people who can elongate the line between life and death after GOD

I don't expect funke to understand because unlike her I have to read 3 courses (anatomy,physiology,biochemistry) which lasts for about 15 years in just 18 months and am expected to be better than the person that reads just one of the aforementioned courses and yet such a person wants to assume a post that that takes a doctor an average of 25years to reach


I won't blame funke because maybe in her world a footballer like Mikel can demand for the title of world best player just like messi and c ronaldo by just playing back pass


U claim its greed but I think its the right thing

If I should be in charge of your life in your weakest moments don't you think I should be financially emotionally and psychologically stable....


Do I blame funke and some professional jambites on naira land for their articles and comments respectively.....no I wont



Why don't you whole lot contest for the position of GOD who created the universe because we can give both to humans

I am not in support of a situation whereby patients are punished for the crime of others but till we as a country get it right by giving honour to whom it is due we can never make a head way


To funke keep writing what you think is right afterall its your job and you are paid to do so



But one thing is sure IF TWO ELEPHANTS FIGHT THE GRASSES WILL SUFFER

That's all I can say for now, falter my points if you have the facts.........thanks again

can't believe i wrote the above emotional statements, but the truth must be told

7sperovs:

U are a fool? who asked u to go to school for 6 years, i went to the NDA for 4 years and after graduation i still have to stand before a bullet each time there is crisis so that i can protect u the doctor, who should earn more..Soldier, that protect even the doctors or police that the CMD calls when armed men come into his house to collect what the CMD stole from the hospital..Genuine cause my foot...Soldiers cant go on strike, th epolice cant go onstrike even when they are paid rubbish, who sacrifices more and who should really be agitating for better pay..Doctors should go and sleep
Am pregnat. doctor say lets find out, Go for a test.
Am feeling feverish- Doctor says lets find out whats really wrong with you, go for a test.
Am very sure the so called lab technician, can tell what result is positive for any ailment and a pharmacist can tell u what drug and what dosage u need to get cured....Every consultant just gives u a list of (lab technician's) test that decides which of the (pharmacist's) drugs to use..It make one wonder what they can really do without test and drugs..
None of the medical/health sector can survive without the other, Doctors should stop feeling too important joor

wellmax: Ours is a nations where people study medicine not with the intent of saving lives but for show off.

Obi411:

This is pure emotional blackmail. Too bad that it is coming from one whom lives are entrusted to. What do you make of soldiers whose duty is to protect the very lives that you you betray with their own lives? How many of them have died in the quest? And their bodies are still counting. Yet they are never spoken of, maybe because they never spent 6, or so, years in the university. Or perhaps, they do not pride in the glory of this great responsibility that has been laid on them, as you do now. Understand this: the greatest people on earth are never heard of. Lest you boast in vain glorification of a privilege given to you. Are medical doctors gods? No, they simply are tools in the hand of the Creator. Let them go back to work, knowing fully well that their calling is a service to humanity, which can never be requited fully here on earth. But wait: even a medical doctor earns more than a soldier!

Peppyluv: Stop beefing! Ewu Lagos

Marvyx: What about those greedy so called lawmakers that collect millions,are never satisfied and do next to nothing on those seats?
The government should give them what they want because they deserve every bit of it.. Come and see the dilapidated buildings that are called government hospitals here and think again. Que Dieu nous aides.

What did you mean by their demand being genuine? They are only being myopic, self centered n selfish, am a health worker, so if you don't have anything to say why not just shut up or get informed.

philtrum: One more sane person .........nurses, pharmacist, pharmacologist, microbiologist and others wants to be named consultants and Chief medical Director......oh you think Doctors are not business oriented too...6yrs in Med sxh + (up to 10 years to specialize for some Doctors) you think they were dancing galala and alanta in ward or popping champagne in the theatre, Or you think its yinka ayefele they sing during ward rounds. No public holiday as student and as a Doc......(Lemme stop before I vex)

armadeo:

That's a nurse. Simple comprehension. All she saw was drz and gods in the same sentence and she went on rampage.

pembisco:
d state dint pay fo ther fees? Wat hapns to d mntly pay given to ther studnts by gvment?

armadeo:
What monthly pay?

phantom: the bolded is the problem with nigerians. 'our rewards are in heaven', meanwhile i buy fuel at the same price as this poster.i buy things from the same market as this poster.my daughter pays the same school fees as this poster's daughter's.

when it comes to treatment we are angels,when its time for you to pay,we metamorphose into demons.
i wish this poster can get to the US or UK and try to access healthcare without medical insurance.

NMA vs JOHESU

timowale:

n what is this one saying?

Mbediogu: the issue is not whether doctors are becoming gods like journalists who have been known to start and end wars thro the ages with what they write, it goes beyond that. Our calling is that of service, not speculation and unfortunately it is always a matter of life and death rather than of war and peace.
1.A consultant consults, in our case with patients. How will the convenient will it be for a sick and poor patient to serially consult from the medical doctor down to the consultant Johesu pharmacist, nurses, labman, cleaner etc? In terms of time, costs, convenience etc.
2. Differences sometimes arise between doctors approach to patient management but these are easily ressolved because of similarity in basic orientation and training. How are such differences (which are sure to be multiplied under Johesu plan), going to be ressolved?

Eldavido1:

what load of crap!!! Do you know dat Nigerian government pay far less than d recommended world health organisation (WHO) minimum wage for doctors? when our poor neighbours such as Ghana pay far above it. But d average Nigerian doctor has far more patient load than his counter part in other part of the world. But wat do we know....

Djtm: IMO, doctors are overhyped in Nigeria.

balladin:
Nobody forced you to read medicine so get off your high horse and earn your pay. I personally think doctors are stealing a living in Nigeria.

adekayo1234: I thought the same court ordered FG to stop implementation of those agreements earlier reached between Johesu and FG.

Joenz: Why are you bringing another dimension to the discuss?If so,why hasn't NMA gotten a circularisation of an agreement to implement its 24 demands even if its for not implementation but merely to douse tension?You all keep misleading the public like non-drs have not always been appointed consultants before prof Onyebuchi Chukwu stopped it muttering words like consultancy is exclusively preserved for the drs.I believe you aware of NMA dropping 21 of its previous spurious demands,pursuing just three nw.We stay calm and await how the imbroglio ends.
