You can lie for Africa.....Which specialist is ur sister trying to see that's not available in my dear Nigeria. That she will be booked for 5months...

I agree Nigeria is bad oooo..But the health workers including doctors are pulling a hell of a miracle with provided resources.....This ur case is an overstatement ma....

Believe me when I tell you I laughed when my sister told me until my mum showed me the card, just appointment o nothing else, okay let's carry out a case study using General hospital Igando or General Hospital Ikeja as a fresh patient, request to see an Internist, Cardiologist or Gynecologist and let's see the date they give you to see the specialist (not student doctor), if less than 6weeks I would give you a 5000 jumia black Friday voucher if more then you apologize and take back your 'you can lie for Africa statement'

Congrats to my sophisticated afonjas who voted this disaster into power.

I kinda like what he signs to an extent and in additional you can compare other countries with the greed infested people we all called Nigerians... it seems you have never been to the hospital before... well not all hospital but most of them, they will tell you that you should buy drugs from a certain place or at their hospital at a very expensive rate and once you go somewhere else to buy at cheaper rate they will never accept it from even knowing you are financially down... later on you will find out they own that certain hoapital or medical center where they compulsory you to buy the drugs... if they know they want private stuff then let them resign and start whatever they want...

Use your brain for once

The said doctors have gotten to a stage where they will referred a patients from government hospital to their own private hospital. They will still claim government is not paying their salary.

They offer poor service to poor masses who can't afford private hospital but offer an outstanding services to patients in their own private hospital

He should as well ban politicians from going for check up abroad.

BRAVO!!!! But it is not complete if he doesnt ban the seeking of medical treatment in foreign lands by politicians and public office holders/ leaders.

God bless you Baba,the trend has destroyed many public hospitals .They collect salary but never render the service. This new policy is highly commendable.

oriewanbe:

Doctors remained the highest beneficiaries of govt wages in the civil service. They earn a multiple of 4 (x4) of what the mainstream civil servants in the same level earn.

This might be right 10 years ago, doctor wet no even see job?Whatever u think they r earning is peanuts compared to what they could earn in saner climes.

sogodihno:



u won't get it because ur hatred for Buhari and your 2kb brain won't allow u to see how our Public doctors direct fund and equioments meant for the hospital to thier private establishment.

A man who has not fixed his house in order is signing some order telling others how to live their lives. By d way, d fact that I don't agree with buhari doesn't mean I hate. My patience for him has run thin tho.

I doubt if you have a credible argument against the ban; except to vent your unrestrained hatred for PMB.

That's usual modus operandi. That's why they often come across as mentally challenged because even in the face of an obviously great news they still wail monotonously like some retarded banshee

Daura is his home town. He will most definitely go there TO VISIT but remains the President till 2023.

Did he tell you he is running away from his home town? Visitation is allowed in 2019 while Osinbajo deputizes briefly.

2019 is a goal for PMB. Done and dusted

Bethor:


Very, very good..!!
They would learn to concentrate on their work now...they either choose to work for the government or go and establish their own...simple..!!
No public doctor should be allowed to be using government resources to finance their own private entity..
Thumps up for the president if this is true..!!!

Peace..!!!

your foolishness is alarming!why bar public doctors from owning a hospital when u pay them a penny after all their dedication to the nation when they are old,they would stand in a line and be asking for pensions that would never be paid!!!buhari is a clueless old man with bad intentions

Am certain that dreams still come true but this your dream?


perhaps in another life time.

We have once been "beaten" it's only proper that we've become twice shy.




We shall retire him back to daura so he can finally rest uder the nearest tree with his mat and a small transistor radio close to his left ear as he with keen interest listens to the BBC

The fun part of this gist is that in 2015 we retired a 16 year government called PDP even as a fledgeling APC party and you think that after this same fledgeling APC has been in power for 4 years the same PDP we retired in 2015 will come back? . I laugh in PDP burial.

Guinness book of records will capture the mass defeat and burial of PDP come 2019.

Don't say you have not been giving fair warning

Our optimism and resolve is unwavering!



We've since spoken to 2019 concerning people like yourself and guess what?


it has a BIG SURPRISE for you one that sends chills down the spine


Some heads up tho'; You may not like it


but it's coming.





Daura dai baba!

This is a good thing.

Same applies to everybody in the civil service. Nobody in the main stream civil service works in a saner clime so people in the main Stream civil service are earning peanut but that of doctors are better.

1StopRudeness:


Is it their money...oga open ur eyes..these people not only steal our money they even use available educational grant for their children....is buhari using his money for medical trip...is like this government is paying u money.....
Please say the truth...how many time has doctors directed u to their clinic...please don't tell lies just to drive home ur point...doctors everytime tell people to go to general hospitals more because of the wealth of experience, general hospitals are better any day...except for cases of lab test or scan...and they do this when the hospitals don't have the facility for the test or the ultrasound machine has too many paintients queuing on it....abeg u are too biased in ur reasoning...

imagine saying politicians [/b]are using their money... They are using their personal money and the whole country is like this??
Respect urself oooo

[b]You are being mischievious because you are twisting what l wrote, to suit your own narrative.
I said "As long as they are using their own money", they are free to seek medical treatment abroad.
You then twisted that "they", to mean Politicians only!
That is not a true reflection of what l said

I am referring to ANYONE who can afford it, should be free to seek better treatment abroad.

Now, even at that, let me assume you are referring to the President.
Whether we like it or not, every office, whether in Govt or Private, has its responsibilities and benefits.
Even myself, my office has a certain amount allocated to me every year, for medical expenses. If l dont even get sick, l am reimbursed 75% of that amount, in cash sum.
And that is me, and l am nowhere near the President of this country.

What l am saying in essence is that you guys should not just get jealous that the President is able to go abroad for treatment ofhis ailment, if we can get the treatment here in Nigeria.
Now, before yo uget me wrong, itis a disgrace that our govt has paid and is paying lip-service to the development of our hospitals and the equipping of same. If we look at it from that angle, they should all be tied down here and allowed to die since it is them that have refused to build modern hospitals but would rather loot the money.
But that is the shameful situation of this country, which Buhari himself met in office.
It is also shameful on him that in his 3.5yrs as President, l cannot point to ONE world class hospital he has built (l satnd to be corrected on that info). One would think that as a sickler, he would try to replecate that Hospital he is always running to, here in Nigeria.
Infact, dont let me start on that issue, the man really should be ashamed of himself on that.

How many times have patients (not just people l know) been turned away from Govt hospitals and then directed to the private hospitals of the same Doctors?
You cannot even count it because it has become the standard practice of our Doctors and that is a bad an unethical behaviour.
I once witness a case where original Prescription bought with World bank Money, was stolen to a private hospital's pharmacy and replaced with poor quality ones in the Govt Hospital's pharmacy (You know the World bank will put its logo or inscription on it) ...and the Doctor even said we should make sure the one we buy, has that World bank logo since it is the original product. How about that?

It is this sort of shennanigans that the new directive will address and once again, l appluad the President for having the political will and courage to issue that order.

I recall that a similar order banned teachers from engaging in "private Lesson" within the school compound, even after school hours, to ensure that they dont reduce performance under official hours only to teach better in their private lessons.
We must always avoid such ocnflict of interest. Civil service rules has for decades now,banned Civil officers from engaging in private practice, when in Govt employment

If you say Buhari is paying me, na u sabi. You can say what you like, its a free world.

a friend's wife went to hospital for a check up, after every... she was billed for an operation. instead they referred her to a private hospital that they own(jointly 2doctors) isn't that evil? that's why they agitate for strike at the slightest opportunity. just to make personal money. thieves. God bless PMB on this!

Wouldn't that be your happiest moment.....

Maxymilliano:
At the rate he's signing every and anything now, hope he doesn't sign his own death warrant ...

Those ranting here are probably doctors themselves,this is a very good move, the salary scale of doctors is higher than that of any other civil servant and yet they are not always present at the place of duty, if you want to own your own hospital, then you resign and face your hospital

my Brothers/sisters I'm presently admitted in public hospital four days ago no Doctor attend to me, all of them left for their personal Business. God dey see them

Those ranting here are people that are tired of government wash and wear laws...
those ranting have actually seen that this law holds no water and it would go along way if lawmakers and those in charge of public funds are baned from medical check up abroad...
Those u refer to has ranting are the ones going to hospitals that are not even properly staffed or equipped....and they see tax payers and oil money absent in medical facilities...
And you want them not to rant...u want them to jubilate that buhari used one of his executive orders to incapacitate doctors from owning private practice, when they can easilybestablish same in another person's name....
What happened to preventing the same house of representatives member rotating the same seat for 16years and all they do is represent them selves and earn 36million a month, what happened to lawmaker and people in power not even using the same hospital as us but fly abroad.
We know how to criticize and shout at pastors when we see them in big cars funded by money some of us didn't even give them.even me that have not gone to church for the last 10months join them ....but we hail our stupid leaders for mediocre laws that doesn't even cover them....
Ofcourse it's a good move...

The only good thing you decided to see

Bolubaba:
If this is true, this is the only good thing i can say he did well. I wish he does the same for all public workers.

AntiWailer:
Some chronic 1diots will not even bother to understand the implication of this.

They just have to type something.

Lol.. Yet they're the supposed leaders of tomorrow, this is how they'll just turn everything upside down..

Oga you are even more foolish and stupid..!!
Do you even know what the public service rule say concerning public workers owning a business entity?
I guess you don't cos you know nothing and commenting out of sentiment with your block head..!!
Go, learn then come back and comment interlligently, you mor0n..idiot...!!

Peace..!!

HBB1:
It's only a FOOLISH doctor that will sit down and mind all these policies. Every doctor that can, should just leave this country-- earn good pay commensurate with your labour. Even Ghana (small Ghana) will pay about double of what you earn here. If Nigeria will collapse, let it! Save yourself!!!

i agree with this.every doctor who know what's good for him/her should use the money earned during housemanship/nysc to get out of this shitty hole.the funny thing is the patients will even disrespect the doctors if any thing went wrong.do you know that i have seen a particular thread on this nairaland about lack of adequate equipments in nigerian hospitals,one guy was lamenting that an ultrasound machine(that's about a million naira) was absent in most general hospitals,one moniker came up and said that the doctors should make necessary sacrifice by paying for the ultrasound machine.Nigerians are so weird,is equipping the hospital with his salary the duty of the doctor??the doctors should just find their way and leave this country for where they'd be appreciated.
