Yeye dey smell. Fed govt sef, na wa o. Can a country choose to drag its feet in a sitiation like this? The doctors and nurses who have chosen to work should be commended and every thing they need to adequatrly care for the sick and protect themselves should be provided. I do not belirve the health insurance shit. Only a dumb doctor will believe that Nigerian government will do as promised. Inshort once that money is paid, the big stomach politictians will embezzle the whole thing and even add ghost doctors names to that list. So I sugest they place a fee or price. Let those over $€Xed legislators, senators and co sacrifice their fat purses for the good of the nation(yeah, in my dreams) and forget about sugar girls and aquiring more minnors as wives. In this case I support doctors 200% they should not risk their lives for nothing. Their families need them esp in naija where its all man for himself. If you die, trying to serve selflessly governmebt will spit on your grave and pass. Ask the families of those Army and police men how it is when a provider dies for National cause. 7 Likes |

etunoman76: The Lagos State chapter of the Nigerian Medical Association and the National Association of Nigerian Nurses and Midwives have accused the Federal Government of not being proactive enough in the fight against the Ebola Virus Disease. Protecting their own selfish interest. This is about money plain and simple...hazard allowance or life insurance doesn't prevent Ebola. The government was even the one that instigated the life insurance cover so what are they complaining about. To crown it all they know the Government has made some efforts...yet they are still on strike. Can GEJ stop being a weakling and just start sacking NMA, JOHESU and whoever decides to stay on strike for petty reasons? Employ temp doctors and let's move this country forward without the unnecessary influence of unionists. 1 Like |

The FG that has utterly failed in providing and creating the basic amenities for its citizens is whom you are waiting for them to provide protective gears?? A Nigerian medical doctor friend of mine once stated this analogy which I wholly agree with: fighting Ebola is like Nigerian soldiers going to fight Boko Haram with cutlasses, knives and dane guns; while Boko Haram are equipped with all sorts of automatic guns and armored vehicles. Nigerian doctors should not be foolish to endager their lives if this hopeless and useless government is not ready to live up to its responsibilities. 3 Likes |

elohorayodele: Subject should include state govt and not just FG. Its hypocritical for the doctors to add their voice in this call because if they themselves were serious and humane they would have called off their senseless strike.Doctors are ready and willing to help, strike or no strike. All doctors are saying is: provide protection! Doctors have families who have friends who have their own families. People should even stand up for doctors' safety now because if they are protected, the society gets better protection because they are part of the society! 5 Likes |

I won't blame the federal government but the people, I do not know how could a fool wake up and be motivated to come out and campaign for one useless politician, if you want to vote, vote; I will never be use as tool to rig or campaign or protest against anyone in the name of token. If a politician could walk around with nothing less than 10 people on ground and figured people turn off from them, they will understand everything about them is a joke, but with just #500, the kongo of garri, 90% of nigeria will form a long queue, why would they take us serious then? To me, I still believe poverty is a choice and I refused to chose it, get rich or die trying...... 2 Likes |

EBOLA: Open Letter To President Goodluck Jonathan So I plead we channel some Money into helping the Canadian company Tekmira which have their own experimental drug (TKM-Ebola) to get it in the country as quick as possible. They are ready to test. We should give them the necessary assistance (Including Financial) to help us win this race against time. https://www.nairaland.com/1851792/ebola-open-letter-president-goodluck 1 Like |

I like an earlier comment,minister of health should take a shift @ one of this centers,Oya LASG commisioner of health,over to you,take a shift for one month. What will u want in place before you start in this highly infectious unit and as u return home to your family everyday. The truth is ebola just butresses the point of nigerian Dr's.Health workers are always exposed to illnesses we've lost friends,colleagues to infectious diseases they had no time off to treat,to lassa,some have got HIV ,heppatitis on the job,etc. Hazard allowance cannot be 5k,and it is so wrong to ask anyone to take risks you the leader of the team will not be willing to take,so commissioner,lead your team. Meanwhile,how many hospitals have been closed in lag for ebola? 1 Like |

I'm a Nigerian and a Medical Practitioner (Laboratory Technologist) and, I am still willing to help... I have written to many top government health agencies through their website and still waiting on their response. I will really love to work with anyone or group working on any medication for preventions or cure of the diseases or to help take care of Ebola patients. I wouldn't mind to travel to any African country where the disease has killed lots of people. #This is not a public stunt! I just want to contribute my quarter in order to curtail this 'epidermic' #Somebody just have to do something before this thing gets out of hands I'm currently working in a private research laboratory and, I'll just love to volunteer. . Should anyone here have any information or link, please help! I'm also currently doing a research on how prevent the spread and possibly, to find a the remedy for the disease. Please, who knows how I can go about it? my link . https://www.nairaland.com/1847993/love-volunteer-take-care-ebola 3 Likes |

They are busy striking for a huge pay cheque while their foreign counterpart are busing carrying out researches and producing needful services.

i think the Govt should contact the company that made this anti-ebola,let me clear this fact the US will probably treat all US personnel before helping Africa,This companies Mapp BioPharmaceuticals, Tekmira Therapeutics and Sarepta Therapeutics ,they produce an anti-body that prohibits the replication of the viral DNA slows down the the virus from reproduction. Everyone should keep in mind that there has never been a cure for a virus but a stop-gap in replication. The anti-body is reproduced in a tobacco plant to mass produce and extracted to produce the vaccine treatment. This is personal view ooo i no want wahala |

In Nigeria, it is only cool to laugh and play about everything, including serious national issues like this until we get our very own personal experience. Nairaland could have been a greater voice and avenue of remiinding the govt we hate every wrong move they make but alas, let's take it as another beer parlour talk. |

He be like say APC doctors and nurses won start another ebola strike to make the strikes two. But these doctors should show and tell government whether them not go steal the kits to their private hospitals and to also assure government if any of them, doctors fall sick due to other form of sickness, that the apc doctors no go blame to ebola and call for another strike.
