Same single story. They should trace the root cause of the massive exodus of healthcare professionals and address them first.
These are the people we call “A fe a je ma fe a yo” in Yorubaland. Enemies of progress.
Where were these politicians when Adewole and Ingige were saying all sort of things. Ingige literally said that Nigeria has enough doctors to look after them.
Healthcare has always been underfunded because it will take a huge resources to achieve a good healthcare system in Nigeria and these criminals we have in govt won’t do it.
And I wonder what he meant by re-integration. Into which system? Recently, I visited a state hospital where I worked for over 5 years before I left. I felt sorry for the doctors because nothing has changed since 2017.
My sister and her hubby were earning a combined salary of 130k naira as nurses back in 2020. They were essentially living from hand to mouth back in Nigeria. They’re now living their best lives in the UK. She was just laughing after reading these thing.

Am the fellow that first worked for this boss but unfortunately, I don’t know what happened, he’s not picking up his phone.

I’m sorry you didn’t hear from me. My wife was not so impressed with the performance and she informed me of 2 red flags
(1) Hiding your face when you wanted to teach my son
(2) Asking personal questions from him.

Good morning dear Nairalanders

Last year three of us were employed in a private school earning 25k a month, which I hardly managed. Considering the increase of price of goods and services, last week we decided to write a letter demanding for pay review.

As a result of this, the school administrator terminate our appointment and refuse to pay us our June salary uptill now. Can you imagine the wickedness happening in this world even in this hard times which I hardly eat twice a day but this happened to me, I don't know where to go now in fact this life tire me I swear.

Please i need advice on how to handle this issue with the school. Is it a crime to ask employer for pay rise? Can we take him to court for breach of contract?

It’s not an offense to ask for a pay rise the management can either agree or say no. And in case they want to terminate you, they should have done it the right way and they are supposed to pay you all that is due to you. They’re exploiting the lawless system in Nigeria.
I currently have 2 teachers teaching my little ones online. They do about 6 hours weekly and I pay 50k monthly each.
Lemme know if you can do this, and if you can teach early years.

Thank you sir .. not to be funny, what if the tear was noticed after three to four strokes? Sorry I'm asking this, I'm not used to playing unsafe

I am somewhat reluctant to offer these sort of advice on a public space as many people will come across it and this may be counterproductive. Just be rest assured that this event that you’re worried about is nothing to be worried about.

What are you worried about? HIV? The chances that you will be infected with the hiv virus is very very low in this situation.
Hepatitis b? Also very low.
Other STDs? Can’t tell.
There’s no need to worry about anything. You can visit the nearest hospital for advice.

She needs an urgent CT Head, not photoshoot.

The labour leaders need to be realistic. They’re negotiating based on the minimum wage that very minimum percentage of the workforce are getting. An increment of 30k will significantly impact on their earnings, many will get nothing less than 400-500k more than their current salaries.
Maybe the FG should propose a consolidated salary increase then….minimum wage of 200k, the ogas that are already on 500k and above can get a moderate raise of like 500k, making 1m take home.
The fg also needs to give the reasons for making this 60k offer. They need to give the breakdown, like; what’ll be the take home for those on minimum wage, what percentage of Fg workforce are on minimum wages. What will this increment mean for those on top of the ladder. What’ll a teachers between level 8-14 be getting? How much will this impact governments spending? Can the state government afford it? Will the employers in the private sectors be able to pay? Will there be any support from the government? Are we now going to kukuma ignore them and face the FG hoping that others will follow suit?
Anyway, Naija is in a big mess. We need a dedicated government to rescue that country. I don’t think that is achievable with any politician.

Cooking, her advice and encouragements when things go rough.
Why we didn’t get married was because of my circumstances at a time she was ready. She had a suitor who was mounting pressure on her from different angles. She got confused and I was in a position to tell her what to do. I almost failed my part 3 MB that year but I survived.
We are both happily married and doing well in our own right.

This is as a result of abuse of privilege by Nigerians in UAE ranging from Cult killing to fraud........ it's a good measure coz UAE cannot sit down and allow some bad elements to destroy what they build.

I was in that country for over 5 years. Nigerians did so badly that every dark skinned man with antisocial behavior would be tagged as a Nigerian until proven otherwise.

Dubai visa wey you go apply today and get the visa within 24 hours

Nigerians in uae really showed them shege

I guess they are wiser now

Nigerians showed them more than shege o.
I’m a witness to what Nigerians did to them back then.
There were many incidents of criminal activities perpetrated by other nationalities but Nigerians did their own and also make noises about it.

Nigerians did what other nationals did not even understood and would not do.
Broad day robberies, cultism, killings(worst), the prostitution was common among every nationalities but Nigerians did many unthinkable crimes using prostitutions; Orosko, pit, abductions. Heard an incident where they set up a local Emirati, harassed him and took his 22k dirham in Alain.
Among many others.
I knew they would do something about it but I didn’t imagined that the door would be shut for this long. It’s been 2yrs now.

Good one Mujahid Asari. He always stands with Asiwaju. He always talked about how Asiwaju stood by him and many others.
Professor Wole Soyinka, a Yoruba scholar and freedom activist was in jail for over 22 months for supporting Biafra agitation. Today, a certain movement is trying so hard to dent prof’s reputation because he didn’t take side with them on a single issue.

Nigerians should forget dubai for now!

This is the bitter truth, based on the current reality.
Plenty plenty stories these days.
Guys planning to japa should look elsewhere.
Agents are now using Bahrain visa to chop people money. To me, nothing de that Bahrain.
I miss UAE of 2018 sha.

This kind of story is the reason I've been working my ass out. My daughter won't be at the mercy of someone like this.
I may end up not owing a conglomerate of businesses but hey! my kids have got everything they will need prepared for them, as they move on in life.

So I received a nomination letter for the golden visa from the DOH. How do I take things up from there?
I thank the doh and the government of UAE for the opportunity.

badaoyeyemi:
thanks sir. But I don't have up to 2 years experience. can I still proceed with DOH

You’ll need 3 years experience before you can apply for any of them.

badaoyeyemi:
badatayo@gmail.com. thanks .I plan doing DHA

I'll send it to you tomorrow.
I don't know your plans but I'll strongly recommend DOH.
you can even process both.
I came here with DHA but I eventually did DOH, based on the reality on ground, then.

badaoyeyemi:
thanks sir. Is there a way I can get Prometric examination past questions for doctors . Google isn't helping at all

I can send the ones that I used back then in 2017 to you but they'll probably be outdated by now.
Kaplan's USMLE step 2 ck note is equally good.

For clarification, DOH(HAAD) is conducted by PEARSON VUE, not prometric.

BUHARI

badaoyeyemi:
Good morning nairalanders. Kindy help me with this

I am a medical doctor . So I met this agent who said he can help me with job in Dubai .

First he said I would get a visiting visa of 3 months

Secondly he said I would get a job with his connect in a week or so

Thirdly , he said after the securing a job, I will get a work permit of 2 years, and then during the course of the job I can apply for their medical license and continue wth my life .

Please how legit is this. Kindly help a brother

Hi doc,
Unlike what is obtainable in Saudi arabia, where recruitment agencies like Onyva are helping guys to secure jobs with MOH KSA, there's no trusted agency that does that here. You'll need to initiate the processing of your license, write the applicable test and come over to search for job.
Dubai is one of the most difficult places to get a job as a Nigerian trained med. doctor.
If you wish to migrate to the UAE, I'll suggest that you apply for DOH license and come to abu dhabi. you can download the updated PQR and go through it, if you meet all the requirement, apply for the license. You can appear for test in Lagos. You can then come around for a visit to search for job. You have a good chance in abu dhabi, in terms of job and salary.
The agent is not legit pls.

Oh my God!
Nigeria has become very unsafe at this time. May God continue to protect us.

Lol, illegally recruited doctors that you directed the CMD’s to employ. To capture them na wahala. Without those “illegally recruited doctors “, some of the departments in those hospitals will not have a single Junior reg.

Elcid1:
No wahala, just that paying any amount above 100usd in Nigeria one needs an alternative mode of payment

you can book through wakanow or through the airline directly. might be a bit more costly.

losky83:
No,am not saying you should not get a better life for your kids,all am saying is take it easy.your salary as a doctor is not bad,your paid in time(doctors are not owed salaries except on striking situations then the government may hold on to their salaries).doctors are far above the poverty line and they do not lack jobs so please tell me,why do they really leave to the US and Dubai if its not because of greed.
But answer me this question and we shall know if really doctors in Nigeria are sincere to their people.IF ONE NAIRA WAS EQUIVALENT TO ONE DOLLAR,WOULD DOCTORS HERE STILL TRAVEL.

Doctors are paid ontime? They’re above the poverty line? They don’t lack jobs? Really? Are these your own assumptions or the reality you see around you?

Bros, I am a doctor and I can categorically tell you that many of our colleagues are not doing fine financially, especially the newly-graduated ones. I relocated to Dubai over 3 years ago. Before I left, I was in practice for some years. Those were the most horrible periods in my career.

An average doctor loves his job but The condition under which we practice in Nigeria is the reason why many were left frustrated and they had to leave.
The financial gain is just a side attraction in most cases.
Sir, you wrote about dollar and Nigeria . Well, that’ll always remain an assumption because with the reality of Nigeria today, things can never get better unless we change these sets of corrupt mofos we have at the helm of affairs in naija. You need to see how the kleptomaniacs waste our money abroad.
And if we are to consider doctors salary in Nigeria, compere to what we that practice abroad receive, the difference is too significant. With a very less work load, my 1 month salary will pay at least, 7 month salaries of my colleagues in government hospitals back home and maybe over 1 year salary for those in some private hospitals.
What about taking blames for the problems caused by lack of medical equipment? Lack of adequate manpower? I was once beaten because there was no emergency pack in the emergency, for me to attend to an injured person following an accident.

Do you know that most of the fatalities that we record in our hospitals are preventable?
Many people die in our hospitals for minor reasons and some of us couldn’t just continue with it anymore.
I opened my own hospital, the business could not thrive because I was milked dry by different agencies while I kept funding the hospital with the salary that I was receiving from my main job.
I was at home earlier this month and I went emotional when I saw some patients condition in the hospital. It can NEVER happen here in Dubai.
Make I drop mic abeg.
