This brother just placed Southern Kaduna on the map of achievements once again!

After studying Veterinary medicine, he furthered studied human medicine!

A coursemate had this to say about him on his Facebook wall;

"Some years back, we started it together at the University of Maiduguri studying Veterinary Medicine, and you were indeed brilliant amongst us. You graduated successfully with many distinctions at your disposal. You proceeded to the University of Jos to do what?

Most of us asked you with surprise that you are going to study Human Medicine. We all wondered what would have became of you. Unknown to us, you were already determined to get the unexpected done".

God bless you Doctor!

He must be a seasoned medical scholar. More power to his elbow

Nice one, what is life if you can't do the things you want to do.

Oga doctor, you're lying, when it's not as if there's some form of disaster going on.

Be grateful for good health Chief.
Ask any regular doctor working in teaching hospitals especially in the accident and emergency section.
I recently left UITH (university of Ilorin teaching hospital) in July and I was at the A&E for a while, a lot of preventable deaths happened simply because there's no light and water. It was that bad that it was published.

You cant do both....you learn on the job.....

Congratulations!!!
Nothing is impossible when you set your mind on it

He most likely didn't go for the MBBS out of passion for it but because of the non marketability of the Animal Medicine in this part of the world.

Superb. First of his kind

Not really. I know a lady who graduated from Veterinary Medicine in the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, and almost immediately she went to the University of Ibadan and studied Human Medicine. She is among those doctors who just graduated from the University about three days ago. I think it was their swearing-in.

My Oga, medicine is a "noble" profession. We are not politicians, we aren't supposed to lie to the public just because we're tired of the country or we don't like a particular government. I've been busy playing around, but today, I had time going through some journals.
From the journals, people don't die like fowl in our teaching hospitals, dem no born Ilorin well to manage some of the cases seen in Ibadan, yet the death rate isn't that bad. Secondly, Health workers(doctors to be specific), the patients(care givers) with late presentations and some of their funny beliefs, the hospital management and the government all contribute to the high death rate we have here.

A study done in Port Harcourt:
Results: Of the 22,791 patients seen during the study period, 446 died, giving a crude mortality rate of 2 percent. The male to female ratio was 1.5:1; the trauma subset and the non-traumatic subset being 4.6:1 and 1.2:1 respectively. Most of the cases were of non-traumatic origin (79.8%), with the 20-49 age group being the most affected when all the cases were taken into consideration. However, the overall mean age was 33+/-9.4 years. The peak age in trauma deaths was 20-29 year, while that in non-traumatic deaths was 40-49 years. Some of the deaths (3.4%) could not be traced to any cause. Probably due to incomplete records or ignorance to the cause of death. Road traffic accidents and assaults were the commonest causes of traumatic death, accounting for 57.8% and 11.1% respectively. Bulk of the non traumatic deaths (25.2%) was from cardiovascular diseases. Most of the patients (70.9%) died within six hours of arrival in the accident and emergency, while 3.6% (16) were dead on arrival. The average time in the casualty before death was about 22.0 hours. Contributing factors to theses deaths might include poor infrastructures on ground, inadequate transportation to hospital, delay in presentation and inadequate clinical exposure by the first line physicians in the accident and emergency department.

Conclusion: Improvement in management techniques might unravel the mysteries of death of unknown origin. Management of medical emergencies should be emphasized in the training of accident and emergency workers.

A study from Ibadan:
Result: Five thousand one hundred patients attended the accident and emergency department in the year reviewed. One hundred and sixty eight (3.3%) mortalities were recorded .There were 97 males and 71 females with mean ages of 49+/-37.8 and 42+/-30.7 years respectively. 46% of the patients had medical (non-trauma non-surgical) related diagnoses. Trauma constituted 31% of the mortalities with an average probability of survival of 80% at presentation. Head injury and multiple long bone fracture were the commonest causes of trauma related mortalities.

Conclusion: Trauma is a preventable cause of death. The poor outcome of the trauma patients underscores the need to equip the attending doctors in the emergency room with basic skills in trauma care.

Another study from Ibadan:
Results: A total of 4674 patients attended the casualty, with a male: female ratio of 1.2:1. The third decade was the peak age distribution. There was a predominance of surgical cases (61%). In the treatment outcome, 52.1% were referred to other departments while there were ten (0.2%) mortalities. Trauma related cases constituted 45.1%. Road traffic accidents were the commonest cause of trauma.

Conclusion: The largest proportion of patient were in the active third decade of life. Trauma is the commonest cause of presentation in the Accident and Emergency Department. A significant proportion of patients do not require admission. The doctor in the Accident and Emergency Department must be skilled in basic trauma care.
