A Call for Inclusion and Review of Bonding Scheme for Healthcare Professionals in Adamawa State

Your Excellency,

I write this open letter with utmost respect and in the spirit of dialogue, on behalf of concerned healthcare professionals and students from Adamawa State. This letter seeks to humbly bring to your attention two crucial matters that demand urgent consideration and redress: the exclusion of key healthcare professionals from the state bonding scheme and the inadequacy of the current financial support provided under the scheme.

Inclusion of Radiographers, Nurses, and Medical Laboratory Scientists in the State Bonding Scheme

Your Excellency, it is commendable that Adamawa State has taken the initiative to bond medical students as a way of investing in the future of our healthcare system. However, it is disheartening to observe that other equally essential healthcare professionals like Radiographers, Nurses, and Medical Laboratory Scientists have been excluded from this initiative.

These professionals play indispensable roles in the diagnosis, treatment, and overall management of patients. Radiographers ensure accurate imaging for diagnosis and treatment planning; Nurses are the backbone of patient care; and Medical Laboratory Scientists provide critical diagnostic data that guides treatment decisions. The effective functioning of the healthcare system relies heavily on the synergy of all these professionals.

Excluding them from the bonding scheme not only undermines their value but also discourages students and professionals from these disciplines, many of whom are willing to serve the state but lack the needed support. We therefore appeal for their immediate inclusion in the bonding program to ensure fairness, equity, and the strengthening of the healthcare workforce in Adamawa.

Secondly, Review of the Monthly Bonding Allowance

It is with great concern and a deep sense of responsibility that we raise the issue of the current bonding allowance of N8,000. While we acknowledge the state government's effort to provide some form of support, we must respectfully state that this amount is grossly insufficient in today’s economic reality. The rising cost of education, transportation, learning materials, and basic daily needs has rendered this figure inadequate and, frankly, disheartening for students who are striving to become future healthcare providers.

Many students rely solely on this allowance for survival and academic progress. A review of the amount is not just a matter of financial adjustment but a show of goodwill and recognition of the sacrifices these students make. Increasing this allowance would not only ease their burdens but also serve as a motivating factor for loyalty and commitment to serving the state after graduation.

Your Excellency, as someone known for your commitment to the development and wellbeing of the people of Adamawa, we trust that you will give these concerns the attention they truly deserve. We believe that through inclusiveness and fair support, we can build a resilient, effective, and compassionate healthcare system for the benefit of all citizens.

We remain hopeful and confident that your leadership will consider these issues and take the necessary steps towards addressing them.

I really don't understand why you mentioned Peter Obi

Richtaiwo:
Good you have the video footage. Can you post the video footage of soldiers killing people in lekki tol gate? But I have pictures of slain people thrown into dirty water under Peter Obi watch.

Well, in effort to continue regurgitating the same lies that have never worked, you may refuse to post the non-existent video while ignoring the people killed and thrown into water by Peter Obi.

One of the difficulties I am having is figuring out how a Nigerian abroad can have a big investment in Nigeria. How to monitor the business, who to trust and how to put an effective structure in place.
Please I need your opinion..

Laff wan finish me... Portable don jam, but I trust him to hit back.

NeckingNgulping:
You can't compare Nigeria to UK. There in UK, you have value for your money no matter how high is the tax and deductions. I'll go there any day, any time.

And work are available to make this amount of money anytime any day. In Nigeria where are the work. People think it's all about the money, but it's all about the availability of work.

Double0h7:
Have you seen her post and celebrate other men other than her family members?

I haven't seen her celebrating any guy since we met 6 months ago

PartnerusIsBack:
For me, it won't seem so but if you feel so, then you can let it slide. Sometime later, you can bring up conversations that tilts towards that. You can also watch her antecedents going forward as regards posting others on their birthdays and then it would be a good opportunity to bring the question of why she didn't post yours. The bottom line is, don't reach a hasty conclusion here. Not trying to hold brief for her but I am saying get to hear from her first before making your decisions.

I understand. Thank you

LoveFayfay:
If I had, of course I definitely would🙃
Reading all your comments I'd say she is your girlfriend but you're not her boyfriend.
But you know that already... Don't deny it any further.

🤣🤣 I am her boyfriend. Why do you think I am not

Fiscus105:
A lady you haven't done ordinary introduction for, you want her to posting you and tag all her friends and followers about you. If today, you abandon her, what would be her faith,.....yet army of foolish guys, who only think about useless anaconda in btw their legs, hailing you and say rubbish.


IF YOU WANT TO POSTING YOU ON EVERY SOCIAL MEDIA, INFACT WRITE UR NAME ON
HER FOREHEAD, GO AND PAY HER DOWRY IN PRESENT OF EVERY MEMBER OF HER FAMILY AND YOUR FAMILY.

We wish our friends happy birthday right, this are friends o ..... Talk more of someone we are in serious relationship with.... She doesn't even need to be romantic, she doesn't even need to post it on her Facebook or IG, just WhatsApp status. Is it too much to ask? Be sincere

PartnerusIsBack:
Communication is key in a relationship. Yes, you can bring it up in a more relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Get to hear her response and that way you can then decide for yourself.

Wouldn't be like I am begging for attention or something?

LoveFayfay:
Must she post you to know that she cares?
If she really cares about you bro, you would definitely know; post or no post.

Birthday blessings. Channel this energy into something positive.

You have never posted your guy on his birthday? Even on your WhatsApp status to wish him something as small as " happy birthday"

PartnerusIsBack:
Please don't generalise. It depends on the individual. Not everyone like to bring their personal matters on social media. The real relationship likewise marriages that lasts aren't on social media. Like I said, it depends on the individual. That she didn't post him on social media doesn't point to the fact that she is seeing someone else. For some, if they love you genuinely and don't want someone else taking you away, they will jealously guide you from the public space. Everyone has their own way of doing things. Speaking from experience.

So what do you suggest I do?
Ask her about it or let it slide?

Aaaaarghmed:
Your relationship is dying.i speak from experience

I feel same too. It's barely 8 months

Natbrowny:
Be a side nigga for once, you’ll be amazed by how sleek these chics are.

By the way. Who's SHE

My girlfriend of 6 months. This wouldn't have been a big deal but she's been acting suspicious. I don't want to conclude because I haven't caught her

Double0h7:
That’s a young lady with self respect. If you don’t marry her at least her people won’t be counting the notches on her bed post. Women can’t be flaunting different men up and down. If you are serious about her then you will play your role otherwise you will move on and nobody will know you ever existed.

And that justified why she can't wish a simple happy birthday? Her aunt knows about us tho

IamFINESSE:
Una dey expect too much from people

So just posting is asking too much? This is our first birthday together. I celebrated hers which was on 7th April like mad. I made it special. I am not asking for anything but at least a post, she doesn't even need to be romantic about it.... Just post a simple happy birthday. It felt awkward my friends posting (males and females) but my babe didn't. In Fact a friend sent me a happy birthday message before my babe. Truth is I wouldn't have taken this seriously but she has been acting suspicious and this doesn't feel right.
Maybe I dey ask for too much sha

JOACHINpedro:
So what? I wouldn't post myself on such occasions.
SM madness is real

In order words?

tanigororo:
It seems you are taking it too serious, don't take it serious or if she ever existed and see how she sit well.

I don't understand

rinaballa:
U didn't even say if she's ur wife or gf u just said she

She's my girlfriend

Today is my birthday, she text me but didn't post me. Should it be a big deal?

The problem with Nigerians is, no one looks at things from a clear angle anymore. No rational thinking..... Just bunches of tribal and religious individuals.

As a young man from a poor background, your back is almost on the ground. Get an education if you can, get a skill if you can't get an education..... And even if you can get an education, if it's not skilled - based education like medicine and other health related courses or engineering you still have to get a skill.
We all want to pass on a better baton. You don't want a situation where you tell your children to endure what they pass through because you have passed through it also. This shows you didn't do anything to change anything. You have to give them better than what you had.
At the end of the day it all goes down to the man. If you can't provide for the family, you are a failure.... If you can't live up to responsibility, you are a failure. It's always the man!!! Face this reality and do something about it.

Nah... I just think that you are not going to see the other side of the argument.
Regardless though, make girls try dey get sense

Kobojunkie:
LOL...I see my questions there further rattled you as they are meant to.

Resist what is foolishness and embrace commonsense aka wisdom abeg!

Looks like u can't look at others view and understand except yours..... Seems like you are a self acclaimed feminist

Kobojunkie:
You lot and your use of "culture" as cover for the obviously foolish!

How have these "cuiltures" which are set on unfair standards helped responsible mold you as an individual?

This is the year 2022 in which you all still complain of how unjust your Nigerian laws are, how even your police disrespect and treat you like garbage, yet you sit here justifying what is an unjust act in the name of culture, proclaiming how you were responsibly molded by it?

Well, like I said it could be a culture, we all have one and even though some cultures are bad but we can't deny the fact that some of these cultures have/had mould us to become responsible.
Now I don't want to be judgemental but you might find out the lady got some questionable characters.
I get your point but I want you to look beyond what the lady posted online

Kobojunkie:
Why did her own son fail her own "test"?

The lady was a visitor he brought to his own home, right? So why did her own son stand and watch as his own mother swept? What audacity does she have to judge another's child on standard even she does not judge her own child?

See ba babe you have to be calming down,it could be the mother way of testing the lady... In my opinion the lady should have collected the broom. It is just like me seeing someone elderly lifting a log of wood but I just passed by, morally speaking it's bad
I still maintain it has nothing to do with standard, look every gender have their own characteristics and it is lack of respect for these differences that are causing problems.
A woman expect her guy to wash the plate, cook the meal, do all the wifely duties but in reality she wouldn't want her brother to do same to any lady
A man will want his wife to take up financial responsibilities and all of that but he wouldn't want that for his sister
Sorry if I deviated but these are essentials

UyaiIncomparabl:
If they could sweep before my presence, it tells me that they are very dirty, have no emotional intelligence on how to treat guests regardless of the relationship, and the son needs more home training from his mother because he should have been the one to collect the broom from her.

Stupid culture.

What don't you agree??

UyaiIncomparabl:
I don't agree with you. Sorry.

Look babe, you are wrong. I feel like you are saying this out of share hatred or pains you have for the male gender. Just like the way a lady will not want to settle less for a guy beyond her standards so do guys. This whole stuff had nothing to do with standard, the girl is not well groomed. This is Africa and the female gender should understand that certain culture still holds

I should be asking you if you know what you are talking about. It is insolence to sweep when a guest is around, especially with the entitlement mentality that she should have taken the stress off you. Who asked you? Wait and let me be gone then you can sweep your house.

It simply tells the guest that you don't welcome them. Learn simple manners. Why must it be when a guest is around the mother chooses to sweep?[/quote]

Mehn... Nigeria is a real ghetto
