Doktorcizzle: Phantom r u @ dis meeting? Let's hook up if u r here

i am not sir, i have an informant there.

strike may be suspended.

joker5180: is the voting over?

theyve not even voted. just oral submissions but its as good as a vote though

a representative of the SGF pius anyim is in the meeting now and is saying that anyim is pleading we should call off.
the same anyim who has gone to the media saying negotiations have stopped.

sorry its senator mark that sent in someone and also called. please disregard the bolded.

maestroferddi: I can see that you are not informed.

For your information, I followed the mediation by the National Assembly on the resolution of the strike/impasse.

I witnessed the negotiations/sittings among the representatives of NMA/NARD; the Director, Budget Office - Dr Bright Okogwu; the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Health, Mr Linus Awute; the Minister of Labour and Productivity - Chief Emeka Wogu; the National Assembly led by Hon Ndudi Elumelu and other stakeholders.

In the above parley it was explained to the doctors the fiscal and budgetary impossibility of acquiscing to their demands at this stage of the fiscal year.

The government made several immediate concessions while praying the doctors to await the beginning of the next fiscal year for budgetary provisions to be made to capture their new demands.


There and then, the doctors agreed in principle after seeing the true picture of things. All the negotiating parties left the sitting happy that the strike soon would be called of.


But when the doctors went back to their constituency, unseen hands got to work. They became unduly intransigent and unreasonable, rendering all the time and resources expended to reach a truce futile.


I am sure it was the unseen hands that cajole them of the availability of non-existent powers. They forgot that when push comes to shove, the government would default to the position of an employer.


Please tell us why the NMA president resigned amidst the strike...

dude have you had a lobectomy stop going on and on and tell us how NMA=APC.
I won't indulge you any further. its obvious arguing with you Is like scooping water with a basket.

nma is APC - maestrofferdi. .....

maestroferddi: You have a way of sounding grievously preposterous.

Jonathan is a politician in case you have chosen to develop a selective amnesia on that.


You chose as NARD cum NMA to deploy all means and avenues within your purview to press home your demand. Infact you went the whole by embarking on what is generally a self-serving strike to paralyse, in all intents and purposes, the national health architecture.


Jonathan, as the boss of all bosses, on his own part elected to serve you a dose of your own medicine by exploiting some intricate nuances in the national employment laws.

You forgot that there are sundry privileges you guys are enjoying at the instance of the government which are withdrawable should political considerations be factored in.


Dude, stick with what you know as you apparently dont know jack about politics and political expediency.

Some of you guys were initially bragging about how the government was going to come back to you cap in hand.

I am sure reality is gradually sinking in as some of you guys are presently scurrying from one media house to the other to whip public sympathy and sentiment. The rest, like you, have been shouting themselves hoarse while trying to drum support from whoever cares to listen.

It is so ironical that you guys are falling back to the rest of society for support. The same people you guys, in rather egotistical vainglory, deem of lower intellectual capacity.

you are the one sounding preposterous. what does APC have to do with the doctors strike? you said it,not me. the burden of proof is on you.
by the time one begins to reduce everything to PDP-APC, they have often times run out of ideas.
leave the NMA wahala,and prove to the rest of us how NMA has become APC, otherwise you are just another e-thug that should be relegated to the background.

goldfish80: Rumours have already started flying? If he has drinking problems shouldn't it be his kidneys affected and not his heart?

Google alcoholic heart disease

maestroferddi: Quite true that we should be using of internal resources.


But our doctors should also shun dabbling into partisan politics.

In Germany doctors remain doctors and not tools being manipulated by opposition elements to undermine the government.


Nigerian doctors really need to sit up. It is not only Jonathan as most Nigerians would readily patronise foreign doctors were it not for cost considerations.


It is goes beyond attacking dissenting opinions...

you see why I refused to take you on on the other thread? a PDP thug,that is what you are.
you lose all objectivity and you want people to take you serious?? you and your president are a sick joke!

a thread is started about your president hopping of to Germany for healthcare, and the only post you make on the issue,you mention that doctors are being used by the opposition, the exact same thing Jonathan was said to have complained about according to senator mark.
must we politicise every damn thing in this country

the NARD president is a northerner doing his residency in AKTH. does it now mean you sack 16000 resident doctors because their president lives in an APC state?
dear Lord, deliver us from Jonathan and the I.diots in his government.

doctors strike for legitimate reasons and you brand them APC? is this how low we've gone in this country?
when gbawe,berem and co. complain, one is tempted to think they are just crying wolf but this one has hit closer to home and I find it disgusting.

lord have mercy!

Demdem:
When doctors demands for a surgeon General of the Federation, it's because of reasons like this and others. What has Jonathan gone to Germany for medically that aso clinic that billions are budgeted for every year shouldn't be able to tackle?

if you dey wait answer,you go old!

r.etarded Nigerians!

maasoap: When are we going to be honest in this country? She didn't die as a result of THE CIRCUMSTANCES UNDER WHICH SHE WORKED, but just that it was too late by the time they realised that they were dealing with EVD. You even made looked like the late doctor's death is the only death recorded so far.

if you had a proactive government,that man would have been isolated from the airport.

maestroferddi: What exactly are you driving at?

You are beginning to get on nerves with your tactless remarks.

Stay on track and stop deflecting issues or else keep mum...

you cant get my point,then relax and meditate on the post till you get it.
my comments are getting on your nerves and you think i care like seriously

candy: Alert on what, pls? Is it NMA or NARD?

i am sorry,i wont divulge more than i have. call your local executives to enquire

Late Patrick Sawyer was rushed to First Consultant Hospital, Lagos, on arrival. It was reported that Sawyer was initially assessed and treated for malaria, hepatitis, etc. The assessment and diagnosis of Ebola came later. The junior and senior doctors that managed Sawyer at the First Consultant Hospital FAILED at this level. With history of acute fever (plus other symptoms) and recent arrival from Liberia, the diagnosis at presentation ought to have been ebola viral disease (EVD) UNTIL PROVEN OTHERWISE.


with all due respect the above is rubbish

Since when did any reasonable professional start comparing their pay with corrupt politicians if not GREED in the making? They keep comparing their pay with other developed countries like there is any profession in nigeria that pays the exact amount their counterpart pay in those developed countries.


look at the above quote and you will see why we are in the mess we are as a nation. citizens that have butter for brains!!!

Demdem: Eediotic talk. so Doctors now are in the business of drugs development. i knew from that thread that u are one daft murrafucker. Did u evn read the opening thread at all?

dem dem abeg no kill me with laugh. these are all people who reason like the retardeen himself. are you shocked at their reasoning?

thandii1: Feel free to spend it with relish, but stop crying all over the forum that the government is not treating you well, we are tired of your tears . You arent different from the senators because you are excited about receiving salaries for the services you didn't render? Yours is worse because you swore to protect lives.

@bolded, I hope you are also wise enough to save part of your last salary from FG so you can at least afford to send your parents to india too when a truck hits them to a near-death state.

your maturity is glaring at the bolded.

thandii1: Dude has been trying so hard to avoid engaging you in a conversation, which only means one thing-he has read in between the lines and realised you are not one of those he can talk down on, and call names, he realises you are well informed about the matter and you are reasonable and sound. Had it been it were a random guy who types in text format or a johesu member(who they always feel threatened by but mask with their false sense of superiority ), you'd have seen him engage you with epistles full of insults, threatening and cursing out.

I just laughed at him when he kept spamming everywhere with politicians pay as if politicians just started receiving such allowance in nigeria. Since when did any reasonable professional start comparing their pay with corrupt politicians if not GREED in the making? They keep comparing their pay with other developed countries like there is any profession in nigeria that pays the exact amount their counterpart pay in those developed countries.

Everything starts and ends with enriching their pockets like they are the only important sector in nigeria , but when you raise the issue, they try to tell you they are fighting for better healthcare services.

Nigerians are mot kids, they can tell clearly a union fighting for her pocket from one fighting for improvement in their sector. See how they are trying to blackmail onyeabuchi now?

So far 2nurses have died, but we are yet to receive a blackmail message from the association of nurses.

Another thing that has been baffling me which I keep saying is that is that these same greedy people received their july salaries(including call duty allowances) and wouldn't have minded receiving more for the subsequent months of no services rendered had FG not terminated their appointment.


Are these who nigerians should take seriously? Yeye dey smell.

they are making plans to pay august salary and i will spend every dime with relish.

@the bolded.....but your senators,just for sitting on their as**es all day can make what POTUS makes in a year in 2 months and you see nothing wrong? 23.5 million/month and you have the b.alls to defend them

i hope you can afford to fly your kids to india when they fall ill?

and yes,i have been avoiding him because...... im no reash(like my warri peeps will say )

Judah1986: It's truly unfortunate. But I was impressed that even in the midst of his pain and loss, he still did not view doctors as the enemy. It shows that there are still honest people in this country. May God comfort him.

exactly!

in other news,unconfirmed reports have it that alerts have started coming in...

aluta continua

it is well sir! may the good lord give you peace.

Blockus: @ Phantom..


Highlighted above are the ONLY points in the OP's post..

1. Hazard Money.

2. Residency

The rest are just rants and curses like I said.. Can you tell me if I missed anything else?!

wow...... you picked a second point.we are making progress.

nigerianvenom: Typical example of nigerian doctors.no sense ,no nothing.just an abusive habbit and mindset

your president is in Germany getting treatment for indigestion.what does that say about you a Nigerian?
a beg,move over you re not worth it.

Blockus: Atleast I comprehend the above post enough to spot the Poster cynicism.


Well, if you feel I havent properly understood the message the OP is trying to pass across, feel free to point them out to me. All I saw was a passage filled with rantings, swearing and cursing.

but I am yet to understand your own long epistle on the matter. you seem to be saying that doctors should not emphasize on a hazard allowance because they are not the only ones exposed to WORK PLACE HAZARD.

Blockus: No sir..


I am reacting to the OP's post sir. Of everything she wrote there, I only was able to isolate the part about '5000 Naira' Hazard allowance. The rest of that post was just filled with pointless rantings.

so you only picked out the issue of hazard allowance

comprehension in the English language curriculum must be emphasized.

anonimi: You can EXAGGERATE our situation as much as you and others like you want. It does not change the FACT that the Jonathan/Sambo federal administration has done much better than their predecessors and those LIARS and PROPAGANDISTS jostling to replace them.

To that extent, I am committed to supporting them as much as possible IF they decide to run for elections again next year so that the slow but STEADY progress we have since under their administration can continue.

......STEADY PROGRESS. okay o,whatever floats your boat. as soon as the doctors call off,I will try and see an ophthalmologist to look at my eyes cos I can't see any progress. so let me rule out ocular pathology first.

blockus, its quite difficult taking you seriously with a moniker like that but I will try.
can you furnish us with a link where the NMA is clearly asking that hazard allowance not be given to JOHESU?

secondly an insurance plan is definitely welcome.

anonimi: My post was in reply to yours, which included this:



and in the context of the TOPIC of this thread.......so.......

BTW, I suggested clearly that she should be honoured with a national award by the FGN while the LASG and other relevant organisations immortalise her work & selfless legacy in order to promote similar values among us.
Do you have a better suggestion

this is the first reasonable thing I have read here today. thanks

esere826: You are correct in this ^^^ ooo
but the issue at hand is the NMA strike
(I have assumed that you are a doctor)

1) Are the nurses and other health professionals happy with you guys?
2) If they increase your salary to 2million a month will you guys drop the strike action and forget about the ammenities you're fighting for?
3) If after increasing your salary to 2 million, they also increase the salary of other health profs. to 2 million or more will you guys embark on another strike?

....think carefully about this from the perspective of the wider Nigerian doctors viewpoint
maybe it will provide some clue

abeg no vex. I no fit argue with you.you obviously are UNINFORMED. don't take it the hard way.

anonimi: I thought she worked in a PRIVATE hospital
Am I wrong?

but her action ended up saving a great part of the PUBLIC.

esere826: Phantom, phantom, phantom
Have you noticed that no one on this thread is supporting the government?
In fact, you'd be appreciated if you go over to germany where GEJ's security is low key and take him out

If you swat a tsetse fly perched on a man's scrotum
you'll have the man to contend with and not the fly

..thats the reason for the mentally deranged nigerians you laugh at
try hard to decompose issues into its various strains

please don't tell me that.
Nigerians support their govt with silence! when you don't ask the right questions or ask for accountability,why won't your leaders continue with the ra.pe?

Nigerians are not just weaklings,but poor,ignorant weaklings.

tit: You forgot one little thing.
Dr Adadevoh did not go on strike. She kept doing her job which society appreciates.
Small girl dey worry you.

she kept doing her job till she died. has it not ended in "eyahh" "pity""so sad""she was brave","you died so that we may live","you are an icon","god bless you sister"

how many of you give a hoot what she earned there?

how many of you have suggested what govt should do for her family?

you are quick to remember she was doing what she was trained for but very slow to review THE CIRCUMSTANCES UNDER WHICH SHE WORKED.
