But the National Assembly can get special allowances...

Then let the doctors resign and join politics.

That is not too hard to do.

Jeje247:
You don't much about what you are talking about.
Residents are not undergraduates. They are actually workers without whom the teaching hospitals would stop working. They are already doctors that have multiple certifications but seeking to become a fellow in a specialty.

By passing the part 1 exams, they become senior residents and perform roles that consultants would perform. They only have to do research, right papers and lecture undergraduate students in some cases till they get fellowship. Asking for a certificate after part 1 isn't totally out of place.
The specialist allowance most likely is supposed to cover research work and others since government wages are barely enough to cover living expenses.

Mind you, when government officials start using bogus figures, they are trying to buy public sympathy. If you split those billions among the thousands of residents in the country, you will see how meagre it is.
This is in a country where politicians steal trillions of naira and get away with it.

I used the word undergraduate to refer to as not being certified yet by postgraduate medical college. I have a professional cert and I was refered to an undergrad in the school until I wrote and passed my final exams. Even though I already have my first degree.

According to the standard of the Medical college, you cannot be issued a cert after part1 exam, you ain't qualified yet. Finish all your exams bro, do the needful. You ain't a specialist yet, you can't jump the line bro.

And that's not a bogus figure because the union representatives signed on the agreement and have never come out to deny it.

Putindbutt:
After the Government has reviewed your allowances by 90 billion, the 90 billion has already added more expenditure to the budget every year. That one never do you, you still asking for specialist allowances?, Resident doctors o, these are still trainees o, asking for specialist allowances?. People who are not yet consultants o. E be like these people are not normal at all.



Look at another useless demand they are asking for, Lol. How can you be asking the medical college to issue you a certificate after Part 1 examination?. I just want someone to tell me these guys are not sick, biko. How can undergraduates be asking for certificate after only passing part 1 exam?. Do you enrol to only sit for part 1 exam, is certificate not supposed to be issued after you have fully passed all the exams to the final class?. Is like law students asking for certificate after stage 1. But I get it, they want the certificate for japa, so even if they couldn't finish the post medical courses till the final class, they can use the one they have to apply for japa, very useless people.

And some ignorant people who do not know what's going on will be quick to insult the Government when these doctors threaten the Govt with strike. They don't know that many of their demands are unreasonable and useless. But because they know the people are always sympathetic to them, they use that opportunity to exploit their crazy demands.

Doctors and lecturers be acting as if they're the only two professions we have in the country, always threatening the Govt with crazy demands. The Govt should also learn to sack them and replace them with those willing to work. Other professions do not disturb the country like these two greedy professions

Bad belle.... Lol so people shouldnt demand whst they feel they are due... but when the buy jeeps and houses for judges its fine. When they allocate 4b for vp lodge its fine..
Pls allow peope who can hold govt to do the needfull do so.. you collect tax from citizens like developee nations buy the govt doeesnt want to provide, pay salaries and cater for the same citizens like developed nations.
If you feel the govt is paying your profession well then fine keep quiet. Other that feel they are short paid have right to demand. Nonsense

Please keep quiet... Typical black man syndrome.. in this country dont they issue cert for junior waec... why are you pained if Doctors want to leave... pay them and they will stay. Black man and jealousy

Emzedz:
All the machines used by these greedy doctors were produced by engineers yet engineers dont get paid these much.. greedy drs

Thats the problem with black man.. lets all of us suffer syndrome.. who stoped enegineers from demanding more pay..

MoneyMan5:
If Nigeria is a serious country Doctors should have been banned from leaving the country. If anyone want to leave they must return the money the government used to subsidize their training and education.

Greedy Nigerian doctors are eyeing the thousands of pounds and dollars being collected by doctors in UK and US but what about the thousands of pounds and dollars they also spent on their education to became a doctor in UK and US?

Most Nigerian doctors are quark with no skills it is only the one with a little skills that migrate anyway.

You don't even know how to hide your hate

You must be one dullard who couldn't make it out of the medical school

Are you confusing results with cert, I don't know any school that issues certificate for JSS. Because the certificate is useless anyways. By same logic, the recognized certificate is the SSCE/WASSCE. The JSS cert is useless.

Alliswell248:

NO THE SENATORS should resign and start treating you

Corporate2020:
Greedy thieves. Doctors are the greediest people on earth. From UK to US, Germany, Australia, doctors are always on strike despite earning too much compared to other professionals.

iswr... Na dem dey go strike pass, yet they earn more than everyone

No be only doctiors dey this country, take the 90 billion Govt has approved or resign and leave, greedy people.

if you comparing to politicians, there are medical doctors who have transitioned into politics, you can as well follow suit. A politician do not work alone, he has a number of aides working for him, that he pays them for their services. He has responsibility to his constituencies many of whom he offers scholarships and pays their bills. Including doctors, whereby these politicians build hospitals and clinics and furnished them with equipments for the benefits of their constituencies. But as a doctor, you're oy responsible to yourself and immediate family, the allowances you're asking for is only meant for you and your family. So stop comparing to an average politician.

Why are you barking because some professionals are demanding what they think his due to them?


As a non greedy person you are,enter medical school,become one and start working for free

MoneyMan5:
Go and become house of representative if you want the payment. You think you can become an house of rep member in Nigeria without serious investments? As much as I hate these politicians collecting humongous money and embezzling money, the money they spend on campaign and before they get to that position is also not small. You must already be very rich before you can fight for an high position in Nigeria politics.

If you want to be like politicians maybe you should go and face politics as a career not being a greedy doctor.

I guess becoming a medical doctor, does not involve resources.

So...HOR are meant to do all that from their salary?


Nigerians truly deserves the type of leaders they have

No amount of blackmail or hate can stop doctors from forging ahead with their demand

It is only a greedy people that after the Govt heavily subsidized their training, after being one of the highest paid profession in the country, they are still greedy AF. Abeg leave and go away and let's see if another person won't replace you.

Judolisco:

THIS IS A BIG LIE.

THE HIGHEST CIVIL SERVANT IN NIGERIA ARE KN FIRS NOW NRS,CBN,DPR,NNPC etc


Again,No amount of blackmail can stop doctors. If it pains you enter medical school,come out and start treating for free...or even sponsor your children and hope hospital for them to start treating people freely.
If you can't do that,shot the hell up of your mouth !

Thinking Doctors are the highest paid professional in the country is the hight of your Ignorance

The fact that your are pleased with your own slave status doesn't mean others are !

If you cant demand for a better pay from this wicked demonic government for your own profession,let those who want to do,do it!

Putindbutt:

Why didn't you become one?

Why is Tinubu not even believing in the capacity of the medical doctors in Nigeria, who have been heavily subsidized but prefer going abroad for his medical needs?

Who is the greedy one?

jeff1993:

We are not talking about civil servants, we are talking about Profession. Aso rock doctors are earning crazy salaries and they're civil servants. And all these agencies you listed have medical departments and the doctors earning as high as hell.

I won't encourage anyone to study medicine in Nigeria unless he wants to remain poor and desolate ,at the mercy of wicked employees
Rather travel out become a citizen of another country and study medicine and surgery
If you are done you can come back to this God forsaken country and practise
Nigerians and Nigerian government are not ready to refine Their healthcare system

How many times has the President told you he went abroad for medical?. Most times, it's even doctors themselves that refer you abroad.

U go jst open mouth dey yarn nonsense, I'm sure u r not a medical doctor, but if you are... then I wonder what type of doctors dey train dis days.... bunch of lazy lots....

If you think medicine and surgery is easy,then go and study it...
I'm not a doctor but I have one who's about to japa, and another one undergraduate and the expenses no be here, naija no help ministry, as a consultant he's made abroad....
Doctors should demand anything they like,the risk is very high joor

The likes of lanretoye, yarimo and helinues are blaming peter obi for not doing what Tinubu is now unwilling to do.

My guy, u might be spitting gibberish and think u are making sense. Audio 90 billion or the 90 billion that cuts across all FMIs? Do u know the neglect they have suffered after series of agreements with past,present governments? Health, Education and Agriculture are a major sector every serious country does not joke with. U want to rub shoulders with Doctors? Which profession deals with Human beings treatment and the various health conditions and life? They are supposed to be paid minimum of 1million sef. U open your mouth wa.. to cap rubbish while an average politician steals billions and u turn a blind eye. If u don't like their demands, u ignore

we have other professionals that don't go on strike every market day.... Nobody is getting paid in Nigeria, but doctors are still up there on d food chain in terms of their take home... If everybody say dem Wan go strike, for example engineers working in telecoms..u think you will have Internet in house? Even if they start paying dis doctors what they pay abroad, they'll still go on strike next month... Enough of dis rubbish
