Do you even have sense? You're not a health practitioner and henceforth should shut up as you don't have a single idea how nurses and pharmacist especially are being underrated in Nigeria. Get the point. They are not seeking for equality but for fairness and pay relativity as they all have direct contact with the clients/Patients

I know that I don't have sense but Mr wisdom, always try to compare your working conditions with others in Nigeria not outside the country. If you don't want to work again, fine, you can simply fly out. Everybody want a pay increase. Do even even know how much they are paying an average Engineer in Nigeria? 50k-80k. And try to refrain from insulting people you never met before.

U see, so is high time u people call off the strike.

CeoNewshelm:
At least 19 members of the Joint Health Sector Union (JOHESU) sustained injuries in an accident along the Benin-Auchi Road on Saturday.

The workers are said to be staff of the University of Benin Teaching Hospital (UBTH) chapter of the union.

According to Channels, 40 of the health workers were on their way to a function in Auchi when the accident occurred.

The injured victims were subsequently rushed to the Otibho Okhai Hospital in Irrua, Edo state, where they were being treated by doctors and consultants on duty.


Esteem Tagar, president of the association of resident doctors at Irrua Specialist Teaching Hospital, who confirmed the incident, said no life was lost in the accident. The union has been on strike since April 17.

Part of the health workers’ demands include upward review of their salaries to be at same level with the doctors, a request both the federal government and the doctors kicked against.

Others are improved facilities, employment of additional health professionals, implementation of court judgments, upward review of retirement age from 60 to 65 years, and harmonisation of salaries of all healthcare workers in the country.


The National Industrial Court in Abuja, on Thursday, ordered the health workers to resume work within 24 hours but JOHESU asked its members to continue with the strike.

The union has “relaxed” its strike in Lagos, Kano, Yobe and Niger states, but called on President Muhammadu Buhari to sack Isaac Adewole, minister of health, for allegedly taking sides with doctors in the ongoing strike.

"This is to inform all comrades that non of JOHESU members or Executives in UBTH was involved in the said accident that occurred this morning along Benin - Abuja road. Those involved are contract staff employed by the hospital to sabotage our effort. I want to use this medium to appreciate all for their concern. Thanks."

They ain't' JOHESU Members!

hardywaltz:
U sound pained
Take a chill pill

, you are right because its not the biz of the witches (doctors) how I negotiate with my employer. I was not employed by the doctors. What is their problem. Useless doctors that can't even do cs without killing either the baby, the mum or both. The only thing that is exclusively at their care(surgery) they can't do, yet they shout doctors as it's a big deal, am not part of the striking doctors but my course mates are, am currently studying genetic engineering in Canada because medicine is not challenging for me. I did a bch course with those medical students in school which the failed massively that forced their faculty to organize the course themselves for future students. Now tell me what's challenging about medicine. Nonsense

Biochemistry can't be a challenge to any medical student. Quote me anywhere

Paperwhite:
See now I pray you. So why can't JOHESU treat its own member but went to meet doctors in the same hospital they went on strike from
This useless egocentric fight should stop.Doctors need the JOHESU & vice versa but let everybody remain within his/her area of speciality.

People have the right to fight for their rights, don't Doctors go on strike too?

My friend, you're wrong. It's not the doctor's normal job to suture wounds without the proper instruments, handling needles with just bare hands. It's hazardous to the doctor. They endangered their lives. And that's because the suturing packs necessary for such procedures were locked up by the JOHESU members. No one pays the doctors to kill themselves. They're not the equivalent of suicide bombers.

Deltayankeeboi:
so because the accident victims are doctors career rivals, you are trying to stress the fact that they were still treated by the doctors they have issues with.

really? were they treated for free? won't the doctors get paid for doing their job.

so the doctors deserve accolades for doing their normal job by treating johesu accident victims even when they are not at peace with themselves.



the doctors will get paid for their work. I see no reason for your sarcastic post.


you must be a very foolish blogger.

would it kill you to say "accident victims treated by doctors" why stress the point that they are johesu members as you claim.

inciting hatred and contempt with your nonsense twisted story.

Take your eye-service post and shove it in your asshole.

You are just another Hungry blogger

Qasaforlife:
you know the Truth about the situation on ground but you want to join your colleagues in fighting an unjust war. That is the problem in Nigeria. Seeing the truth but difficult to voice it out because of victimization. Am not in the health sector but I have followed this problem and Nma has had an upgrade in their salary 3times in one year,,why can't others have theirs no matter how little

please use this to judge and see for urself how Doctors are being shortchanged in termed of salary relativity in Nigeria compared to those other countries. And our ingrate brothers wanna earn the same thing .check the website and judge urself

shutup Doctor is not superior to any health worker, mumu when security and Gardner dey among health workers?

u sound so bitter n angry. sorry o

bbxxxxxx:
, Since the DOCTORS claim they can do without them why are they transferring patients to private hospitals, let me see how they will work without medical test results. Daylight witches, how does it affect them if government increase the salary of the workers on strike, a doc spent just 2 yrs more in school than me and its salary is 4yrs ahead of me yet they can't even treat gonorrhoea without running to me. Even Cs they can't do properly, patients keep dying because of their carelessness. Witches

chai!.... e pain you o. U know u can take jamb again n apply for medicine, right?

# Fowardedasrecieved .
# COPIED #
Our attention has been drawn to news making the round that UBTH JOHESU EXCO members were involved in a road traffic accident today 19.05.2018 on their way to Auchi in Edo state.
While there was indeed a road traffic accident:
** the victims are neither UBTH JOHESU EXCO
NOR MEMBERS**
We understand the desperation of the sponsors of this false news to always seek ways to score cheap points but we are saddened by the fact that they could descend so low as seeing the pain and anguish of the accident victims as something to be celebrated to the extent of uploading the pictures of this NIGERIANS IN PAIN to the whole world.
I want to state here again that this news is not correct as no UBTH JOHESU MEMBERS were involved in any kind of accident today and we shall by the GRACE OF GOD NOT BE INVOLVED IN ANY.
We want to advise ARD/NMA members to always check their facts and avoid rushing into conclusions so as not to continue spreading falsehoods to the general public.
They could have asked questions and get correct answers before painting the social media red with this lies.
I advice the NMA to avoid wishing JOHESU MEMBERS evil as evidenced by the way they celebrated this falsehood on the social media.
WE WISH THE VICTIMS OF THIS R.T.A A VERY QUICK RECOVERY.
WE ALSO APPEAL TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC TO PREVAIL ON THE MINISTERS OF HEALTH AND LABOUR TO QUICKLY PUT AN END TO THIS STRIKE BY DOING THE NEEDFUL.
GOD WILL CONTINUE TO PROTECT JOHESU MEMBERS.
OUR DEMANDS ARE LEGITIMATE.
GOD BLESS JOHESU.

Is not legitimate....Don't tell me that as a medical lab. Scientist or a physiotherapist....that you passed thru all the rigors that a medical doctor went thru? How many MBBS exams did you write and how many resit did you had.your works are always on shifts....while doctors are always on calls....what stoped those agitating from studying medicine? Lol

Are you okay at all? Did you actually read my post before mentioning me? Who told that other healthcare professions including physiotherapist did not write professional exam at every stage? how should one year extra in school make physician to be alpha and omega in health sector? if you don't have any valid and objective points to marshal out instead of these petty sentiments and trash, why not keep mute and learn by googling how most developed health system in the world runs with their physicians working as team member with other health care givers in the sector. Do it fast and thank me later

Ingrate brothers? You see, thats the problem we are talking about. So Pharmacists should be grateful to doctors for allowing them to earn wages? You guys are pathetic. it wont always remain this way, that i know.

Thank you later greedy man Abi?...you sabi do operation?
You are lucky you didn't follow your cohorts to that function,that is why you have the gut to argue with me Abi?Pls go and argue with you village pple abeg.

ozo13:
thanksfor ur observation. I don't think dr is any thing like victimization here.lets jus educate each oda.first dr is this thing dey call salary relativity.nma discovered that relativity is what ds guys r trying to abolish stylishly. Dey wait for nma to go negotiate, they in turn go behind close door to go negotiate too and nma discover that after negotiation dr is always pay parity between a Doctor and oda guys instead of the usual relativity WC should be 2:3:4 ( nurse:pharmacist/lab guys and other bsc holders: doctor) meaning if a nurse is to earn 80k (due to her nature of work which is base on shift and she also enjoy 12 to 15 free days in a month) , a pharmacist is to earn 120k and a Doctor to earn 160k .this is what relativity is all about.in advance clime, the relativity is 1:2:3 I think(I stand to be corrected). So u can see Nigeria kinda relativity favours them than Doctors originally. What this guys r now asking for from the government is for them to be stepped up by 20% in such a way that the pharmacist and others earning around 120k will now turn to around 150k(WC is what we theDoctor termed pay parity).please judge for urself .will it be fair on the Doctors whose work in d hospital is more demanding than ds other professionals. So NMA is now trying to remind the FG to also remember us when they are implementing the 20% increment for others (this is what johesu guys so don't want).u can see bro.by the time u start hearing people saying things like dey all went to d same university that dey dont see why dr should be salary difference.please tell me is dis not parity dis guys want.it is also worthy of note to let ppl know that mbbs degree is a combination of 2 bachelor degrees (medicine and surgery degree together- no pride intended.smiles).so our brothers with Bachelor in dr various field of study know how difficult it is to achieve that bachelor degree let alone someone/Doctors DAT had to be patient to obtain 2 of such bachelor degrees. it is important we educate dem that all are not the same certificate even though we all went to same university.bro am waiting for ur reply

Am a female. I think they just want the government to increase their salary because of the high cost of living at least a top up .

Laughable
You are daft and responding to you again is a waste of resources. The garbage and riddle you vomited out here shows that you are a liability bent on wasting the resources and energy of your kith and kin in training you in school. So they better give you a corner of your village so that you can practice your herbalism and quackery. I am an enthusiastic Physiotherapist with a singular aim to rub ideas with intelligent fellows in health team and not a complete illiterate like you.

Topping up their salaries without topping up doctors salaries would erode relativity. And that is not acceptable .

Mobsync:
Eye service.

Have the doctors not been treating other patients?

And when doctors go on strike, don't JOHESU attend to other patients?

So why is this news?

In what capacity do Johesu attend to patient when doctors go strike?

God should lay his hand on them

You're just another ignorant fellow.
Would it kill you to use your small brain for two minutes and understand something? You're spewing all these rubbish because you've never been a victim of these incessant strikes by JOHESU. why should they demand to be at par with doctors?

Deltayankeeboi:

one thing is clear herein.

many of these non- doctor comment writers have not seen the document revealing the anticipated salary and how they compare to those of doctors. most comments here are based on heresay. Get the facts and spare your energy.

The FG would do the needful. No argument.

I can see another johesu member dying of anger. What about the strike they went on, were they not been paid for the services they rendered? I don't even understand your point here.

Glay:
Wait this is news? Doctors doing what they are being paid to do?

so before the johesu members embark on strike were they not being paid by the patient or what are you saying? Do you think money is everything? Even if they are going to pay the doctors, what if the doctors said they won't treat and they don't need their money? Do you know what millions of people went through as a result of their greed? Or you think people who were looking for the medical attention were going to receive the treatment for free?
