As insincere as the Nigerian government

The Nigeria Association of Resident Doctors has said its nationwide strike scheduled to commence today (Monday) will go ahead because the Federal Government has yet to invite its leadership for a meeting.

NARD said the Nigerian Medical Association, Pharmaceutical Society of Nigeria, National Association of Nigerian Nurses and Midwives and others should support the struggle for upward review of its hazard allowance from the paltry sum of N5,000.



The National Publicity Secretary, Dr Stanley Egbogu, told The PUNCH on Sunday that the government had not invited NARD for a meeting despite notifying them.

He said, “The Federal Government has not invited us to a meeting after we notified them that we will be proceeding on strike. We have directed all our members across the country both federal and state institutions to recommence the strike we suspended on June 22, 2020.

“We call on all other unions in the health sector, the NMA, PSN, NANNM to support this struggle for upward review of our hazard allowance from the paltry sum of N5,000.

“The truth is that the current hazard can’t be compared to the daily risks of hazard we face every day from the current coronavirus to the Hepatitis B and C viruses. The risks is just too much for N5,000.”

Recall that NARD had resolved to commerce an indefinite strike with effect from Monday September 7 2020.


The organisation was demanding payment of the medical residency training funding to all its members as approved in the revised 2020 budget and payment of the outstanding April/May and June COVID-19 inducement allowances to all health workers, among others.

Op, so u be man of God? Something bemuses me about the title.

It seems op is the one having inferiority complex mentality.

Wait o, is Magu a Muslim or Christian?

The speaker of the HOR is much more active than than the Senate President. He's always the one intervening to keep things to check, even during strike actions by unions in the country.

Each senator received Covid-19 palliative allowance of 20million naira each, 15 million naira went to each HOR members. Then the core workers in the health sector left to their fate. God curse them all authorities!
Meanwhile the hazard allowance for doctors regardless of cadre is a meagre 5000naira. Haaaa!

Tribalism too much in the South east, see the caveat nurses of the state’s origin
U see many Igbo health workers in other regions but shut out other tribes when recruiting on their side even in federal establishments.

Nigeria is a damned state
See the federal legislators appropriating 15 to 20million naira to themselves as covid19 palliative.
Now in Ogun, the state teaching hospital doctors are on strike, resident doctors nationwide have declared to go on strike in few days time, now Ogun civil servants declaring strike too. Nigeria is in trouble.

Euthanasia should have been given after the first week or thereabouts.

Euthanasia is unethical in medical law, the doctors might even be charged for murder.

What of Ebola patients?

People attacked Obasanjo then when he said even Jesus cannot conduct a perfect free and fair election in Nigeria.
Omo even Jesus becomes Nigeria President today, it'll be very difficult for bros Jay o as this country seems irredeemable.

What u call experiment is actually treatment, doctors were still treating him till he finally died.
It is unethical for them to have let him die even though it was obvious he would most likely succumb. Euthanasia is not allowed in medical practice.
Commend and not condemn the doctors.

SCAM! Plateau state just started cashing out now. Doesn't it feels strange how Lagos went from having 400 to 20. I remember when Lagos health minister predicted August as the date when the curve will be flattened, and truly the curve is flattening. If u don't see the scam here then u must be one of those people who believes buhari can make Nigeria better.

U are a dullard but unfortunately, I don't have the time to educate u.

E good

I'm sure the guy is suffering inside and showing off outside. His entire skin is mesmerised.

The appropriate authority should do the needful and repair of pay for the damages done.
RIP to the departed souls.

Mad people in uniform full Africa

Car keys in the pocket could be very discomforting u know. At times I just subconsciously see it in my hands after I already put it in my pocket.
And I don't blame those who clip it to their belt as it is even safer there.

Wonders shall never end
I don't know what's worth complementing in this, it's plain rubbish.

No comment as I understand manpower isn't it problem, democracy is. This system of govt is not working.

A little learning is a dangerous thing. Where on earth did Nigerians get the idea that medical training is free (or almost free)? This is complete rubbish. I am a medical doctor (almost a consultant to be precise). I paid school fees, exam fees, paid for text books, projects, etc. In fact, I paid more than my colleagues in other courses. So where is the "free" that you're talking about? In residency training, I paid almost 100k each time for primaries exam till I passed. I then was lucky to get a place for residency almost immediately (some of my colleagues had to travel far and wide for interviews before getting, and some had to sign to pay with the first 3 months salary before getting). While in residency I've travelled for several update courses costing over 200k each and writing books all at my expense. I recently passed my exam which cost 160k minus travel, accommodation, feeding, etc expenses all paid by me (I was blessed to pass first attempt. Each exam costs almost 500k in total and I know doctors that have had to write up to 6 times before passing not because they're not good but because frankly speaking our residency in this country is almost crap and filled with many sadistic examiners). Government pays nothing so forget the lies they tell you on tv. I owe Nigeria nothing, Nigerian doctors owe this country nothing. Even consultants are fleeing, I have considered it several times but I have a lot to consider.

We ain't talking of the post graduate level sir. The fact is medical school at the undergraduate level is almost free when compared to the cost in the advanced countries. U stated u paid school fees in medical school, how much was it?

kowalsky:
Finland

And what the average tuition of medical schools there?

kowalsky:
Stop using America as a generalization for the rest of the world!

There are many 'advanced' countries where medical degrees are close to free of charge

Give examples please

FFK remains the most irrelevant, paper weight politician I ever know and he only reasons after he finishes talking.

Nigerian leaders are daft, u train doctors almost for free and u lose them to other nations that run medical schools very expensively.
The govt should find a way to tie down the doctors by improving their welfare.
Medical schools in Nigeria are almost for free but in the advanced countries, it is a multimillion naira project that graduate doctors have to spend years paying off student loans after graduation.

FFK is useless home and away, no one even associates with him in his Ife home town.
