miketayo: If what you are saying is true, then another chairman can come and stop paying that extra salary. Plus a phc doesn't have much doctors. This particular chairman is leaving this year.
One thing they do best in Lagos state is continuity.
miketayo: They receive about 170k for level 8- to 600k plus for level 17 But the chairman doesn't pay their salary, it comes from Lagos state. I don't understand this article. Only the state government can increase their salary
The Chairman of Ikoyi-Obalende Local Council Development Area (LCDA) in Lagos, Mr. Fuad Atanda-Lawal has approved a 100% pay raise for medical doctors associated with all primary health centers within the council area.
The announcement was made on today after thorough deliberations, emphasizing the imperative of ensuring comprehensive, quality, and affordable healthcare for all residents in the council.
The pay increase
The pay increment is slated to come into effect from February 2024, reflecting the chairman’s commitment to addressing the prevailing brain drain in the nation’s health sector and grappling with the challenges posed by the current rise in inflation.
Atanda-Lawal underscored his confidence in Nigeria’s skilled doctors, stating that with the right incentives, they could compete globally, fostering sustained commitment to the country.
The decision coincides with the initiation of the construction of a state-of-the-art primary health center aimed at catering to a larger segment of the community.
Atanda-Lawal reiterated the council’s dedication to supporting the endeavors of President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Governor Babajide Sanwolu in delivering quality and affordable healthcare to all citizens.
The chairman expressed the belief that investing in healthcare professionals is a crucial step toward achieving this collective goal. Why it matters
The decision to increase the remuneration of doctors aims to tackle the issue of brain drain in the nation’s health sector while retaining skilled medical professionals, preventing the loss of talent to other regions or countries.
Recognizing the consistent rise in inflation, the pay increase serves as a response to the economic challenges faced by healthcare professionals. It helps mitigate the impact of inflation on their income, ensuring financial stability and motivation.
AyakaDunukofia: Clientele wise, Access bank is not Yoruba. It would be a strategic error to have a Yoruba head the holding company. I hope this is just an interim position.
They probably have more branches in the SW than in the SE.
The Chairman of the Board and head of the leadership team is Yoruba.
Out of the 12 members of the leadership team, 6/Half are Yoruba.
Out of the 12 members of the leadership team, the only decision-making Executive Board member after the CEO and the Chairman is Ms Agbede.
There's nothing soley Igbo or Yoruba about access holdings because it's a major and widely spread out business entity in Nigeria and Africa in general.
The best and the most experienced talent also based on the company's succession plan are picked to lead, not based on tribe or ethnic considerations.
1. Access Holding is the parent company, the apex, and leadership of everything Access.
2. Access Bank is a subsidiary under Access Holdings, the subsidiaries including Access Banks report to the leadership aka CEO of Access Holdings.
3. Roosevelt Ogbonna is the head of Access Bank, a subsidiary of Access Holdings, he reports to the CEO of Access Holdings, the parent company.
4. Ms Agbede as an executive director is a decision-making member of the Access leadership but Mr Ogbonna is a zero decision-making executive director, basically a ceremonial position because he is the head of a subsidiary while Ms Agbede is a decision-making member of Access Holdings, the parent entity.
5. Ms Agbede has been involved in the day-to-day running of Access Holding including Access Bank, a subsidiary under Access Holdings, even since 2003.
Now, Ms Agbede is the overall Boss of Access Holding and has been in a leadership and decision-making position since 2003.
Ms Agbede as the CEO of access holdings is the overall Boos and Mr Ogbonna serves under her.
kettykin: if you can't read this and understand the meaning then I rest my case, you can go ahead with your assumptions
Access Holdings Plc on Monday announced the appointment of Ms. Bolaji Agbede as the Acting Group Chief Executive Officer.
This follows the death of its former Group Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Herbert Wigwe.
Seriously, your problem is beyond inability to read and comprehend, read the above quote again if you are capable.
Mrs Agbede is the head of the group while ogbonna is the head of a subsidiary under the group, ogbonna reports to the head of the group that he's under.
kettykin: In 2010, the Central Bank of Nigeria revised the regulation covering the scope of banking activities for Nigerian banks. The universal banking model was discontinued, and banks were required to divest from non-core banking businesses or adopt a holding company structure. FirstBank opted to form a holding company, FBN Holdings Plc., to capture synergies across its already established banking and non-banking businesses. The new structure resulted in a stronger platform to support the group's future growth ambitions domestically and internationally.
What is the meaning of this and what's it got to do with the topic or the fact that Mrs Agbede is now the Boss of Access Group?
If you've ran out of sensible things to say, abeg just move on.
kettykin: Nnamdi Okonkwo is the MD of first bank holdings, does it make in charge of the banking business of first bank? Holdings companies are not core banking businesses. Please read why holding companies started
Holding companies are always the head of the subsidiaries under them, Access Bank is a subsidiary under Access Holding company, Mr Ogbonna reports to the CEO of his parent company and must now report to Mrs Agbede.
Why are you torturing and embarrassing yourself like this? You are not making any sense
Access Bank is just another subsidiary under Access Holdings and he must report to his corporate boss, the CEO of the parent company.
kettykin: Access bank and access holdings which came first or gave birth to the other. Herbert wigwe has been md/ceo of access bank since 2014, he had to step aside 2022 because of cbn policy that requires the ceo of a bank not to stay more than 2 tenures.
Have you asked your self who was Herbert wigwe reporting to when he was the MD of access bank aside the board. Was he reporting to any MD of access holdings prior to 2022?
Access Holdings is the parent company. Yes or No.
Access Bank is subsidiary under Access Holdings. Yes or No.
Mrs Agbede is the CEO of Access Holdings. Yes or No.
kettykin: The holding company handles non core banking business of the access group like pension, investment, stocks, insurance. The core banking business is not distracted by the non core banking business of the group.
Just talk to an investor who has more than 20 years in the market place and you will understand it better.
Access bank is too big and systemic for the lady, if you handover the bank to her , investors and depositors will pull out tomorrow
Access Holdings is the parent and corporate company while the bank just like many other entities under the holding company is a subsidiary, Access Bank is a subsidiary under access Holdings, meaning the head of Access Bank answers to the CEO of the parent company .
The head of the Bank, Roosevelt Ogbona used to report to the late CEO and he must report to his new boss and the CEO of the parent company, Mrs Agbede.
Was the late CEO under Ogbonna or the other way around?
Mrs Agbede is the new Boss of everything under Access Holdings.
kettykin: There is a difference between access bank and access holdings , the bank is being run by Roosevelt ogbonna and the holdings was run by Herbert wigwe. The holdings encompasses all other auxiliary businesses like insurance, stocks etc.
I don't really think Herbert groomed a successor , this woman is not looking fit , no background accomplishments, no credentials, just out of the blues
You can't be serious.
She's been in leadership position with Access Bank since 2003, over 2 decades, she's a member of the board and she's responsible for many mergers and acquisitions.
AbaganaMiracle: Your stupidity is smelling to high heavens. South Africa's total domestic electricity generation capacity is 58,095 megawatts (MW) and this is for 60 million people of the country, while your cesspit with over 200 million people generates only 4,594.6MW. Some of you are actually daft and dumb.
So, you mean generating more than Nigeria and still experiencing the same power cuts and depending on the same generator means SA is better?
Of what use use is your high power generation if at the of the day, you still don't have power.?
