Complete the treatment. Take lots of fluids, eat and rest well.

Suspended by the management of the hospital. Definitely not her license.

Better, meaningful jobs ahead for her.

I strongly doubt your figures. Also, based on information available to me, doctors in federal hospitals earn more than those working in private hospitals. Note: I am not talking about doctors who own private hospitals. That is not to say that a very few private hospitals in Nigeria do not pay more than government hospital.

A simple google search shows that consultants in government hospitals earn between 800k and 3 million monthly.

By the way, I did not relying on google search for my previous information.

You can get the CONMESS Salary Structure and have a look for yourself.
This is just for Doctors. It's equally poor across the healthcare sector which should be a critical sector in any Country.

DoTheNeedful:
The minimum wage in both countries is the most appropriate metric for wage countries.

I personally have problem with what you posted. The salaries of doctors depend on various factors in Nigeria. For example, doctors working in government hospitals generally earn better than those working in private. Besides, the 250k you posted up there was the salary of a registrar (senior resident doctor) in a federal hospital 12 years ago. I have very strong reasons to doubt those figures.

A young consultant in a federal hospital does not earn less than 1.5 million per month.

The info provided is current and accurate. That's the basic salary of young medical officers in government-owned hospitals. Allowances barely make up to an additional 50%.

Private hospitals generally pay better than government-owned hospitals today.

No young consultant receives 1.5m per month from any government-owned hospital. What CONMESS grade Level would that be?

Edo debunks claim of selling 14,000 hectares of land to 17-year-old

The Edo Geographic Information Service has dismissed reports claiming that a 17-year-old boy purchased 14,000 hectares of land in the state.

A viral post on social media alleged that Governor Monday Okpebholo suspended the issuance of Certificates of Occupancy after the purported discovery.

However, the agency, in a statement signed by its Director of Press, Tunde Egbiremonlen, on Monday, described the report as false and mischievous.

Egbiremonlen said no such transaction exists in the agency’s records, noting that a 17-year-old is legally a minor and cannot register land ownership under Edo law.

The statement read, “The Edo GIS system will automatically reject such applications due to age restrictions.

“In the first place, a 17-year-old cannot apply for registration of land in Edo State because he is a minor; the Edo GIS system will automatically reject the application.

“To compound the objective of the rumour-mongers, the peddlers of the story did not explain where in Edo State, such 14,000 hectares were purchased by the minor.”

Edo GIS urged the public to disregard the claims, which it said were being circulated by individuals who allegedly spent large sums of money to spread misinformation.

Okpebholo has in recent months taken steps to reform land administration in the state, including the revocation of a contract with a private firm that previously managed the software for Certificates of Occupancy.

Many are mad bro

MistyDense:
Same thing I asked myself. God bless you for this comment honestly. I wish I could shake hands with you seriously. I was just asking myself if this lady was ok. You can imagine such nonsense o

It's actually more rampant than you think. It's more of a psychosocial issue in the society today.

oz4real83:
the Oba of Benin is the father of them all. Izoduwa that was corrupted to Oduduwa was a Benin Prince who migrated to Oyo after being banished from the Benin empire. It was he that became the first Alaafin of oyo and gave birth to the first Ooni of ife and his last born also became the Oba of Benin. The yorubas will never agree that Oduduwa came from Benin. They would rather tell you either fell he from the sky or he came from Egypt using Air peace, uber cab or tesla🤣🤣🤣

Izoduwa (Oduduwa) migrated from Benin to Ile-Ife. One of his descendants, Oranmiyan, was sent to Benin from Ile-Ife in stead of his father, Izoduwa who was supposed to be the successor to the last Ogiso.

Oranmiyan's administration in Benin was not long-lived before he migrated to establish the Oyo empire. He left behind his son, Owo mi ka (corrupted to Eweka) who later became the Oba of Benin.

Uzoamaka, Ajokpeeiniovo, Tenebe, these are Igbo, Urhobo and Ijaw names all in Edo. niger Delta is truly the melting pot of the South.

The first two names were the chairmen of the party electoral committee for the respective elections, representing the APC. They are not from Edo.

Meanwhile, Tenebe is an Edo name.

muyico:
I thought naira gat no value, where Igbo gat money to buy 50 acre of land??

Probably better a economy/ business environment to thrive.

At this point in human development and evolution, installation of 'kings' in foreign lands is outright senseless. Only leads to suspicion and strain in relationship with the hosts.

How about the Hausas, Yorubas, Igalas, Edo's, Ijaws living in Ghana installing their own 'kings' and building palaces?

How many Ghanian kings do we have in Nigeria?

Both men are commendable performers, but Wike has just spent TWO years as FCT minister.

It's quite illogical to compare TWO years of Wike's administration to FOUR years of El Rufai's.

Ablesam171:
Why do people always compare Nigerian professionals (especially doctors) to those in foreign countries?

Do we use Euros, Pounds, or Dollars in Nigeria? Why not compare the cost of medical school fees in those countries to what is paid here?
A starting salary of ₦400,000 in Nigeria isn’t bad at all when you consider our minimum wage. Why all this focus on doctors as if medicine is the only profession where pay is lower compared to overseas counterparts?

Abeg, make una let us hear word about all dis doctors mata, nobi only doctors de country dey affect.

School fees has nothing to do with the sacrifice put in the practice of medicine, in addition to the overall welfare and working conditions of healthcare professionals.

This is what sets apart the practice and healthcare system as a whole in advanced and organised countries from places like Nigeria.

Arguably, medics pay relatively higher than others in Nigerian universities, but that isn't the basis why healthcare workers have to be well compensated.

I thought he had a dislocated shoulder?

The judges caused that?

Portable was obviously more fit for the fight.

One punch almost sent sent speed Darlington on a 360 rotation spin.

OALandAgents:
The list even ommitted all the Minister of state appointments for the SW.

Where is CJN?

Where is Minister of Youth?

Where is Chief of Staff?

Where is Attorney General / Minister of Justice?

Also where are the Permanent Secretary appointments?

Where are the Vice and Pro Chancellor appointments for federal universities?

Where is the new INEC chairman appointment?

Where is the Comptroller of Immigration Service appointment?
Where us chairman of NAFDAC appointm

where is Minister of Education?

Where is NDLEA appointments ?

NNPC nko?

For me, the most stupid leaders (also extending to the people) are from the South South.
Just imagine the NorthEast or Northwest in the position of the South South. Nigeria for learn new thing.

So what decisive steps should be taken to PREVENT such attacks on communities across the Country?

Clearly, the law enforcement agencies are not up to par.

Imagine Nigeria not larger than 2 states - California and Texas being under siege by bandits, terrorists and criminal herders for over a decade, but such can never be heard in a Country such as the US which arguably is the most hated Country on earth.

What the heck, even Ghana you no fit see this kind rubbish!

Nigerians need to wake up!

The least you can do for yourselves is clear all these idiots out by 2027.

Why weren't they arrested and prosecuted?

No confidence in law enforcement and judiciary?

Noisemaker

In 2017, idiots like this folk started sectarian crisis in Kaduna. KD youth taught them lessons in a language they understood within a very short period. Since then, no such crisis.

Now basically threatening the whole Country? Real idiot!

ALL those terrorists will be flushed out of the forests!

Clown

Where is the president?

Where are the governors of Fulani stock to make statements and visit these victims?

Why are these terrorists allowed to roam within the forests kidnapping, killing, raping and making tiktok videos?

And you expect these people to remain cowards until they die!

Ndenomy:
If aboki start retaliation now you go begin cry terrorist . You go dey only dey use your hand find wahala. I don’t support jungle justice of any kind. Whether its the Deborah’s or The hunters that were extrajudicially killed. If dem begin kpai your edo people for Kano now the same you go come here to cry foul. Hypocrite

Retaliate against who? From Kaduna to Taraba to Adamawa to Benue, Platueau, Ondo, Edo, Ogun, Enugu, Bayelsa, Delta, etc? Who exactly? Every other Nigerian?

It's approaching the point where citizens in every one of the States mentioned above will decide to flush out the criminal elements in their forests.

BEFORE THAT, the killers of Deborah, the teenage sons of the police officer killed in Yobe a few days ago, and killers of women and children in Ondo, Enugu, Benue, Plateau, etc MUST be paraded.

Senseless oaf!

In fact, ALL the Fulanis perpetrating crimes in our forests MUST be flushed out.

Antoeni:
Nice One , That's The Only Language Those Evil & Heartless Killer Fulani Herdsmen Understand, They Will Come to a Village ,Go to The Farms Of Farmers Internationally Destroy Their Crops And Inflict Injuries On The Farmers in Most Case Kill The Farmers, Or Kidnap Them

If true, he probably did so out of retaliation to losses incurred by cattle grazing on his farm and apparently did not get any assistance from the so-called NGOs, government or law enforcement agencies, and resorted to such action.

It may also be unintentional.

From occurrences across the Country over the last few years, it's obvious the farmers and victims of criminal herders are not paid attention to because they choose to be peaceful and law-abiding.

When Nigerians are ready, they will focus on allowing competent, intelligent and bold individuals into governance, not the double-dealing opportunists seen today.

P1PrinceKT:
The assailants need to be brought to justice and, cos if we continue this way other southerners will not find it funny in the North we will continue to educate every bit of malicious things that happen to any Northerner in the South for reprisal.

Oh really? With this logic, and the number of Southerners being kidnapped and killed in the North, the South is sure lagging behind in terms of reprisals.

dederocs:
Mr Governor your work is to serve Edo people and protect them and their property, your work is not to serve Tinubu.

A vigilante member was stabbed, the vigilante men were defending themselves from 39 armed bandits. Mr Governor secure Edo forests, declare all Fulani and northerners leave the forests of Edo State,if you want to live somewhere rent a house In the town, only animals, terrorists and bandits live in forests.

Create a forest guard to patrol Edo forests, these bandits have sorrounded Edo forests, we must go in and flush them out by any means necessary.

You're one the few on this forum to state what actually escalated the situation. We're waiting for the 'investigations'.

During the search, there was resistance and one of the occupants stabbed a vigilante personnel. This led to what happened.


But even more importantly, with the level of lack of confidence in the government in saving lives and properties, coupled with their apparent inability in neutralising these kidnappers and killers in the forests, this incident would be replicated in many other States in no time.

SporaD8:
I carpeted all Southern leaders including Tinubu, Obasanjo, Obi, Akpabio, Gej, Amaechi, Soludu, Ezekwezili, Natasha, Osinbajo, All Pastors, Ezes and Obas.
Remember Tinubu is one voice and will not lead Nigeria forever. Holding one man, who is possibly a sellout, accountable while excusing others is what box the South in this currently corner.
Atiku has spoken from Adamawa, Kwakwanso from Kano, United Northern Governors forum have spoken in Unison. Pray tell, who spoke for Enugu? Any protest for the abducted and executed bishops?
Has any Southern leader lend his voice to the protest against the waves of insecurity in Ondo?

Three days ago, two boys were murdered by a mob in Yobe because they were sons of a police officer; the officer who escaped was warned to return to wherever he came from the South. No statement from any of these funny people. No manhunt.

As for Southern leaders, I've always maintained most of them are just opportunists whose only priority is themselves. Many of them with even questionable characters and criminal records.

The government should buckle down on their primary responsibility of providing security to Nigerians, or else, frustrated Nigerians will replicate such incident in various parts of the Country. Such has never happened in Edo, but the menace of persistent kidnappings and killings in recent times has caused some agitation amongst the people. People will begin to react.

Destroyerofyeeb:
Edo bastards, they must be caught before we retaliate. Una think say nah una dirty cult fight Abi . Una don price una must pay

Do you know why this is a critical security issue?
The so-called 'retaliation' would be met with even more brutal response from the Edos. That's what every smart person is trying to curtail.

But the failure lies with the government. Such incidents would soon be replicated in various parts of the Country in no distant time as the government has proven to be unable to protect the lives and properties of law-abiding citizens; Nigerians will begin to act for themselves in respect to security matters.

Citizens also have to be aware of their environment. It's unwise to travel with weapons in present Nigeria where practically most parts of the Country suffer from insecurity, kidnappings and killings.

The government has performed woefully in securing citizens. People are now agitated.

People are frustrated and agitated. This is unfortunate.

Edo Central has been experiencing a high incidence rate of kidnapping and killings, and the government has failed in protecting lives. People are beginning to take laws into their hands.

At 65!

This is serious!
