The Medical and Dental Consultant’s Association of Nigeria (MDCAN), says its members will pull out from all Teaching Hospitals in the country if the National University Commission (NUC), fails to withdraw the circular issued to Nigerian Universities that all medical doctors lecturing in the universities and medical colleges must possess PhD certificates before they would be allowed to lecture. https://www.dailytrust.com.ng/doctors-to-embark-on-nationwide-strike-over-nucs-phd-directive.html 8 Likes

There is trouble in virtually all our national institutions. No harmony anywhere. Anyways, the benefits of having your business registered are quite many. For CAC Company or Business Name registration, Foundation, Schools, Church, NGO, Trademark, TIN, SCUML, NAFDAC number etc, talk to us at www. Lawlab. Com. Ng 3 Likes 1 Share |

Maybe NUC actually goofed by allowing them lecture and become Professors without PhD in the past but it seems they realized their error. The consultants want to continue becoming Professors without PhD. I laugh! Do they actually know the rigors of becoming a PhD holder? They are not bigger than NUC that regulates them so if NUC says they cant become Professors without PhD then they should either join their colleagues who go on to acquire PhD or get out. 146 Likes 9 Shares |

NUC just wants to cause unnecessary discord. The rigor involved in getting fellowship with the paper work and research is more demanding than getting a PhD. A 5 to 6 years residency program that some spend a decade to finish. 30 Likes |

But that's the right thing to do now. Must everything in this country be solved with strike action? How can you be a lecturing medical doctor without PhD. Common sense should tell us that it doesn't work that way. Mtcheeew 74 Likes 5 Shares |

What a bunch of illiterate medical doctors saying "PhD is cosmetics" All over the world, a PhD or equivalent is required as a minimum qualification to join academic positions at lecturer level and above at any University. A PhD exposes one to a narrower field but at greater depth and understanding. Most medical doctors that are teaching our medical students are just holders of MBBS which is a Bachelors degree equivalent to having BTech or BSc in Engineering. However, with residency periods, we can subjectively agree/disagree its equivalent (but not) to Masters. Irrespective of the aforementioned, to be a lecturer in a proper University you need to have a PhD, there is no shortcut about it. 66 Likes 4 Shares |

The NUC had on December 24, last year issued a circular directing all University Vice Chancellors and Registrars, National Postgraduate Medical College not to allow doctors who were not PhD holders to lecture in the universities, a decision that was vehemently faulted by the doctors.We @[color=#006600][/color] know what Doctors go through first hand, PhD certificate though relevant but “ it doesn’t add value to any kind of treatment”. The NUC’s decision is punitive and acting in error, We believe that having fellowship acquired through residency was more vigorous, which could be equated with PhD certificate, That is residency training is purposeful, while PhD is cosmetics'. Only Medical Doctors in the house can comprehend our posts. Spuggie:....and who cares if it is for once or for a million times? Keep your agreement to yourself please. Rubbish! 26 Likes 2 Shares |

With these our doctors going on strike at the slightest provocation, is this the country to be evacuating, quarantining and managing coronavirus suspects from China? In fact, how we were able to deal with ebola was nothing short of a miracle. 6 Likes |
