Properties / Re: Pls Help, Is Lusada A Good Place To Buy Land. by DisGuy: 3:01pm On Dec 08, 2023
2dmax:
my 2 cents.
Alagbado is for now more populated than lusada but both have same proximity to main towns in lagos(imo).
But for real, u cant beat the pop and infrastructure explosion that will hit lusada and environs when the 10 lane road will be completed and commissioned.
If i was in your shoes, would buy an acre @ lusada (in one of d estates) with dat money and fence it 3 coaches round den sit tight for the next 3-4 years, resell 3 plots and use the pay to build my desire on 1 plot and use 2 plots for ma self. That's how enterprenuer thinks.
No disregard to mum and uncle idea though, but u should ask urself if u r an investor or a retiree, den dat should fuel ur decision.
Lusada is more akin to lekki in infrastructure, than alagbado, which is more like a potential iyana ipaja in future.
As i said, ma 2 cents

Things have changed, you might see some trust still offering but most of them are in deficit so all the perks dried up.

Once you move that's if you do, you will come across better offers even within your trust once you're settled in. Once you're in the NHS and with the right attitude ( work and social) the possibilities are endless!!

Good luck with whatever decision you take

From raw cow's milk, one can produce butter, cream, cheese, among others.

Family / Re: How Important Is A Son In Igbo Tribe by DisGuy: 4:16pm On Mar 03, 2023
Romanoff:
Hmmm.

Even if the man is woke, if his extended family isn't woke, I pray you have where to get male child guaranteed.

Cause in many cases I've seen, a wife who doesn't have a male child for her igbo husband is sitting on a one legged chair in that marriage.

It's even worse if the wife isn't a fellow Igbo woman. Igbo women can't inherit their father's property culturally and even when it comes to their husband's property, they are thrown out if they don't have a son.



In all these what do the women in the other family think? The wife of the 'wicked' uncle that is going to takeover their late brothers property, the daughter of the wicked uncles...do they support it, they look away or they just don't have a say in the matter concerning another igbo woman like them?

Health / Re: How Much Do Doctors Earn In Nigeria? by DisGuy: 11:46am On Dec 14, 2022
Sweetvie:
Like seriously
I thought we have doctors on nland? grin
We do but it's seems there's a lot of trauma they're dealing with themselves going by this supposedly simply question.

I see a lot were describing how difficult it is to study medicine, some thought people were envious of them and some even question the motivation behind the questions.

Funny how Emeka in abakaliki can open the Internet and get information about pay in Los Angeles but Fred from New York would sweat before getting answer to a simple question like this about Nigeria on the most popular forum in Nigeria

Depends on experience and the facility at which they work.

Housemanship - 180K (150-220K, depending on facility). Heard Hazard Allowance has been increased, so if implemented, that should increase these figures.

NYSC - 33K plus salary from the facility to which they are posted. Federal facilities pay about 60-70K, while state facilities range from 10K to 90K (average should be about 40K). Those posted to less busy facilities in capital cities may also be able to get extra income by taking locum private practice jobs.

Fresh doctor in a private hospital (GP) - 200K (Few facilities pay less, minimum 180K, while some pay more, 220-300K).
This pay increases with experience (with 2 years experience getting about 250K) but peaks at about 350/400K. At this stage, most doctors will have started their own private practices or moved on to residency.

Some GPs start their own private hospitals.
Small "blue curtain" clinics in small towns outside major cities like Lagos, Abuja with auxiliary "nurses" where the owner GP is the only doctor there, would earn the doctor about 400K monthly.
Bigger practices would earn more.

For residency, junior registrars earn 270-300K, while senior registrars take home 380-420K.

Consultants at federal hospitals start at 700K. Those at state hospitals and those employed as honorary consultants by universities may earn slightly less.

Consultants employed at private hospitals usually earn more. Here, the pay also depends on the speciality. A neurosurgeon will earn more than a family physician. Low end specialities can earn about 700-800K, while high end specialities like neurosurgery can earn up to 2M.

Consultants at government hospitals usually supplement their income with locum private practice where they take on part time jobs at private facilities (on paper, the government job is full time, but in reality, it's more of a part time job (Nigerian civil servant attitude) so they tend to have ample time for private practice even while practising at government hospitals). Extra earnings here also depend on specialty. Surgeons tend to earn more than physicians, since they can charge per procedure. These extra earnings can range from 300K-2M monthly.

Consultant owned private practices earn depending on the specialty. Orthopaedic surgeons and neurosurgeons would very very easily net well over 2M monthly, out-earning a rheumatology focused practice for example. These figures are for single specialty private practices which are quite rare. In reality, most practices offer several other specialities in addition to that of the owner, by hiring other specialists on locum basis when the need arises.



Thank you so much for taking time to actually answer the question asked and contributing to the discussion.

One person went on and on and on abusing everyone before attempting to namedrop some big specialist hospital as if they're the average hospital in the 36states on Nigeria!
