I wish it's as easy as most of you guys make it to be.
Advice to the girl..
Try the navy or airforce..
The pay is good
Likely location is a military hospital


Alaye, don't discourage anybody abeg!

Don't project your own reality on others.

There are over 8 thousand Nigerian Doctors in thr UK alone.

Not to talk of the US.

The UK army was headhunting for Doctors a while back.

She should try Navy Or Airforce, the pay is good?

How much is the pay?
...and for a Job where your chances of further Medical training is slim?

Abeg!

A military Doctor who is a consultant and a Major General earns about 2 million per month.

That gives you about 100m in 4 years, not even 5.

Go figure, dunce!

You are a thief!

Is this not your original post?

Join the army.

The bigger the crowd, the better cash.

Don't look at salary, its just MSS standard.


But if you hold a command position eg even managing an MRS not to talk of a hospital, for one year is enough to pay you the equivalent of a consultants salary for 5 years.


But you gotta use your head...


If you liaise with the corps Heaquaters, your CO and finance, you'll take home almost 100 m in 5 years...


Once again, if you know you know.


First hand experience!


Where did you mention Major General there, or is it Major General that manages MRS?

Ole!

He should liaise with Finance and CO?

Are you not ashamed of yourself!

They should share money while the soldiers live like Dogs?!

And you mention Major General like its pure water... is it every body that will make that rank?

Is 30 or 35 years beans?

Ole!

How does an officer manning the MRS after liaising with the Financial Officer and his Commanding Officer make 100 million in 5 years.

Effing criminal!!!

Will every medical doctor become a Major General?

Is the renumeration of officers not in black and white?

Are you not an idiot?!

i have read about our armed forces, but my brother, even a military guy was suggesting she can go abroad because of nepotism and the treatment that people get in the Nigerian army.
I was shocked.
I was told that there are ways though, genuine ways that we are considering



Truth lot's of nepotism..
No offense but you do know the army is different from airforce and navy..
The army is trash but the airforce and navy are better treated anyways..
For the nepotism well is has never been this bad....
Like I said a non citizen becoming a full member of another country's military hmmmm its possible but the person won't go far until he or she becomes a citizen of that country or have a permanent residence in the country
Well depends on the country you want..
UK and US citizenship and residency..
The Commonwealth route she can try Sha

Bro no more MSS allowance in Air force. It is now Medical scarce allowance , which is 49500 that cuts across all medical field in airforce plus ippis which is about 262,000 naira first year in the service as a doctor. Its not dat juicy in the airforce for doctors.In the other hand the people benefiting more in the medical field in air force are the allied health professional . Like there is no difference in Salary between a nurse , med lab scientists ,medical records and a Medical doctor
please, what does MSS allowance mean?
And how long does it take for a medical doctor to be promoted from sublieutenant to lieutenant in the Navy OR flying officer to flight lieutenant in the air Force OR lieutenant to captain in the army

Guy, are you drunk as usual?

As in, are you normal?

You asked a simple question and I answered.


If you want to ask specific questions on how any other office rank medial doctor can earn legitimate cash off that magnitude from the army, you can humbly ask and I'll oblige you.


But if you start by yammering like a rabid, inconsequential self confessed dunce, then who am I to give away a valuable information to an undeserving, hollow drunkard like you.


I truly spit on your acute, irredeemably execrable tomfoolery!

From a new entrant making 100 million in 5 years, you jumped to a Major General...

What Major General does not earn in that range before?

If you can, mention the 'legit' ways to make money of that magnitude.

If e sure for you!

Or you think I don't know what goes on in the Army?

Don't forget to give your ATM password to your wife or girlfriend. Because retrieving the dead's money from the bank is hard these days.

Very insensitive.

If it was a female,you would give reasonable advice in the most polite manner.
Re: Prospect Of A Medical Doctor In The Armed Forces by Drella(m): 10:38am On Jun 15, 2021
OP I don't know if doctors who are commissioned officers go to battlefield but I know they do get posted to combat locations such as the North East.
Mind you,even if they stay back at the base,boko haram comes to attack soldiers' bases like it's nothing.

Now, numerous doctors in the military has died over the years in combat region s(Commissioned officers).

In conclusion:All soldiers in combat locations have chances of dying.Just that the chances of a medical practitioner dying is lesser than that of the likes of artillery, armoury, infantry etc personnels.

My advice:
If you are doing it for humanity,you can join the military because if you die,you die for a just cause.Death is a must afterall.
JUST DON'T BE AN OVERZEALOUS SOLDIER.

If you are doing it for money,do not join the military.The day one dies,they won't continue to pay the salaries and benefits to one's family o.

Just like the First person said, Navy is good but I'll advise you to join Air force which I feel it's more suitable. Army is also a good choice because they pay Medical personnel Scheme (MSS) from WHO and your starting salary with MSS in the army as Lieutenant is around 280-320k. My advise is you should sit down and think of the armed forces you like and make a good decision. Thanks
does it mean army pay doctors more compared to airforce and navy
