Medicine has the same issues.

Doctors earn bad salaries, many are leaving for overseas jobs, even consultants,and hospitals are awful.
My neighbor a veterinary with PhD was arrested yesterday. He first sold his car to soften accrued loan charges and his wife relative brought a Toyota pencil light to enable them carry their kids to school but the lenders came back to lock him up in police station and size the wife car.

That devastated my entire narrative about seeking professionalism and as an upcoming Veterinarian struggling with multiple loans.

Why are they complaining? They are the ones aiding and abetting rigging in Nigeria. We all in this together.

I disagree with you, he's quite wise to put his children in the private schools, will you place your wards in a system that is decaying and more or less abandoned by government?
But he is teaching in a system that is decayed or decaying.

Too many professors in Nigeria. Many are not even worthy of being awarded PHD. We can't finance such a huge number of professors. They must use their knowledge to generate income for their university and make money from there
You should add that they should fund research from their pockets too. SMH

Your likes always like demonizing the President.

Let us face the wholesome truth, has it ever been better since 1999 till before PBAT?!!!!

Has ASUU not been going on strike since this democracy started in Nigeria and has any year gone past without ASUU not embarking on a strike ?

What has always been the major concern and issue for such endless strikes that even made some State governors made it possible that the State Universities/Tertiary Institutions within no longer joined their counterparts in FG established institutions in such endless strikes?

Is there anyone in Nigeria who will claim to say that they are well paid given what is paid in those countries that use $$$$ ?
Did they campaign to maintain the status quo or solve the problems? Or what exactly is their job if I may ask?

When I wrote here that a professor in Nigeria cannot afford flight ticket with his salary but a factory worker in the U.S can go on full holiday trip to another country with his salary, some people who are supporting the evil in Aso rock where saying otherwise to justify what the evil has turned Nigeria to.

Just imagine the lowest workers abroad earning more than our professors here in Nigeria and yet they are telling Nigerians that they need to pay tax and price of goods and services like those abroad, also telling us that the evil they support is the best thing to happen to Nigeria

Tax is a percentage of what you earn. So you are not paying aa high as those in the west so rest
