You just said nonsense. Next time if you aren't sure of what you're saying , just keep quiet.

Who told you commisoned officers don't do battle? Below is the picture of a brigadier general on the battle field fighting Boko Haram some years back . He was killed. Yes you heard me right, a whole brigadier general

Mr nonesense. U ended up saying nothing because all u said doesn't negate anything I said. U ended up living up to ur name which is Mr. Nonesense

Dude I spent time in the Military and I still have friends there.

Doctors have been killed by Boko Haram, and others have lost their limbs due to land mines.

One of my friends just left Borno, and he was at the front!

Once again, congratulations on ur achievement of spending time in d military & having friends there.

This is exactly what my daughter had always wanted, combine her medical practice with a stint in the armed forces.
But with the way our armed forces has been so bastardised, we are trying to get information on how she can achieve that abroad.

Do you think it's easy to Get a job in Canada or USA as a doctor. The cost of moving there and other professional courses to do before being able to practice is ridiculous. Please have sense


Can't you humbly make your submissions and contributions without insults.

I think u are mistaken. D medical personnel u are referring to that are attached to units on d battlefield, aren't medical doctors. When medical doctors enter d military, they enter as commissioned officers and are very unlikely to handle a weapon in battle.

D set of military personnel that are attached to battle units on d battlefield, are non commissioned officers (NCOs) who do most of d fighting. What happens is that when recruitment is done for NCOs, d recruits don't enter d military with any formal tertiary qualifications. After recruitment, they are posted to different corps in d military, like infantry, education, MP, medical, engineering and so on. There, they are trained on d various skills according to d demands of their various corps. So it's d NCOs trained in d medical corp that are attached to battle units not medical doctors

things don't work that way in Nigeria.
Nigeria treats its professional armies like conscript, so don't be surprised to see one medical professional in your unit

How does that make them underfunded...close to a quarter of the national budget is spent on the armed services, these guys are getting the cash but it's not going to the right places. The average Nigerian General is a billionaire, these days.

Boko war is big business
they were underfunded because the money is always going the wrong route. The money not collected by you but was said to have been given to you isn't your money yet.

You can't be a self confessed dunce and be smart at the same time.

Again, you seem to say that you're usually battling hangover...

When a dunce is continually drink-sodden, the result is a disaster!

And you obviously are!

Lol.

UK army was head-hunting a while back... and they were offering freebies.

A military Doctor who is a consultant and a Major General earns about 2 million per month.

That gives you about 100m in 4 years, not even 5.

Go figure, dunce!

i have read about our armed forces, but my brother, even a military guy was suggesting she can go abroad because of nepotism and the treatment that people get in the Nigerian army.
I was shocked.
I was told that there are ways though, genuine ways that we are considering
