Nobody said there that Nigerian pharmacists are richer. All these big hospitals are owned by doctors. How many pharmaceutical production industries do we even have in Nigeria? It's just few. We import virtually everything from abroad. So, where do we even have those rich pharmacists in the first place?

You're a demented mo.ron. I've been to Emzor and Juhel. The real pharmacists producing those drugs are foreigners, not Nigerian pharmacists. Nigerian pharmacists work there, but they're not the main people overseeing drug production. It's still the same with Nigerian engineers. No Nigerian industrialist can entrust his pharmaceutical production company into the care of a Nigerian pharmacist without first employing a White pharmacist to do the real work.

Most of those pharmaceutical production companies you listed import 80 percent of their drugs. Embassy is an example. Green Life and so many of them import those drugs too. The foreign pharmaceutical company will manufacture it for them, and they'll sell it as sole distributors. There is this particular malaria drug sold by Green Life as the sole distributor. It wasn't manufactured in Nigeria. Only few of them such as Juhel, Emzor, Neimeth, Ranbaxy and a few others are active in serious drug production. The rest manufacture few drugs they can and rely on foreign companies as sole distributors. Besides, some of them are not owned by Nigerians. Pfizer, Ranbaxy, Glaxosmithkline, May and Baker. They're foreign companies who manufacture their drugs here and abroad. Most of the indigenous ones you mentioned are just struggling to survive. I know they exist, bit they're not that serious in drug production. So, most of the drugs consumed in Nigeria are imported. Can you list their products (up to 10 drugs) each of them has ever manufactured and the links to the information? Don't include foreign ones. Exclude Emzor, Juhel, Neimeth and start with those other ones.

[quote author=Period007 post=90383855][/quote]I didn't say that Nigerian pharmacists are not employed in the production section. My point is that most of the people in charge are foreigners. Go there and see for yourself. The only exception is when the Nigerian trained abroad or learnt on the job. But for a Nigerian pharmacist to be appointed outrightly to head the production section after studying in Nigeria or within few years of working there is a fat lie. They do undergo serious tutelage under the care of foreign pharmacists before they may be allowed to do so. So, it's still the foreign pharmacists that are mainly in charge. Those ones you listed are just like 2 in 1000 pharmacists.

Stop being decieved. So, just because it had the highest likes meant that more Nigerians agreed? Ignorant Nigerians liked it and you based your faulty judgement on that? I can now see how intelligent and reasonable you are! Besides, that comment never had the highest likes there. Those people and you who liked it were and are still ignorant of the labour market in Nigeria.

No production pharmaceutical company in Nigeria pays that much. You're even the one that is ignorant and lacks the ability to comprehend. You just picked up an unreliable piece of information from Nairaland and believed it. How much do they make that they pay such huge amounts of money to them? You're out of tune with reality. Show me where those information came from. Give me the links to the companies that pay such huge amounts of money. It's not a lie that they rise over the years. After all, it's a fool that stays on a job he or she isn't promoted, but to be paid such huge amounts of money is untrue.

Moreover, Nigerian-trained pharmacists are employed to learn from foreign pharmacists, so that those companies can cut costs. That's why over the years, they assume the positions the foreign pharmacists were occupying before. This is because the foreign pharmacists are paid more, and those companies would like to cut cost in the future. It's a business strategy.

You talked of government jobs, but it's only resident doctors that mostly want to work for government. After residency, they lose interest in government work. On the contrary, pharmacists beg every time to be employed by government, including you. Show how Healthplus and Medplus earn higher than big hospitals here. Give the link to that here.

So, Nigerian doctors will generate substantial income in medical tourism with erratic power supply and obsolete equipment? Your sense of reasoning is shallow. No foreign medical doctor can do his or her best in this harsh Nigerian environment. Despite that, some Nigerian doctors have distinguished themselves in the fields of cardiothoracic surgery, paediatric surgery, haematology like Dr Bazuaye of UBTH who did the first successful bone marrow transplant in Nigeria. I've not seen the achievements of Nigerian pharmacists here. That's why when you reeled out those humongous salaries as their real emoluments by foreign pharmaceutical companies in Nigeria, I laughed at you. You should have used common sense to know that it's not feasible in Nigeria.

I laugh at you. Provide their pay check or the links to that. It's even illiteracy that pushed you to pharmacy. Most of you in pharmacy didn't make the required JAMB cut-off mark for medicine. I know so many of them like that; even the ones who studied pharmacy first, came back to medicine via direct entry and failed the 2nd MBBS and were booted out of medical school. But I have never seen a medical doctor go back to pharmacy. So, we know the illiterate ones. At least, you have shown it here by believing that crap. You're nauseatingly gullible. I've told you to provide the information that foreign pharmaceutical companies pay that huge amounts of money to Nigerian pharmacists, but you couldn't. You only based your information on unreliable and unreasonable information you got on Nairaland. That's how ignorant folks behave - believing every information hook, line and sinker without using their brains.

You're the confused one. You should have used your brain to know that no Nigerian-trained pharmacist will be allowed to head a drug production section until he learns on the job from foreign or foreign-trained pharmacists. Besides, I never told you that no drug is manufactured in Nigeria. I said that most drugs used in Nigeria are imported. I didn't say that all the drugs used in Nigeria are imported. This shows you didn't comprehend my earlier comments. If I had said that no drug is manufactured in Nigeria, why then did I say that drug production in Nigeria is being overseen by foreign pharmacists? Stop saying what I didn't say.

2 in 1000 Nigerian production pharmacists I wrote, didn't negate my earlier stance that foreign pharmacists are the ones in charge of drug production in those companies. If you get 2 out of 1000 in an exam, did you pass? I take it that you're a kid. Learn how to read and understand. 2 in 1000 is an outright failure.

Therefore, Nigerian-trained pharmacists have failed in the area of drug production. I need not give you any reply again. This has degenerated to a childish thing.

It all boils down to what I said here that Nigerian-trained pharmacists are quacks. 99 percent of them cannot produce drugs.

To give you a benefit of the doubt since you said you work in a pharmaceutical industry, provide the photocopies of your payslip and those of your friends who work in those multinational pharmaceutical companies here as an evidence.

By the way, I went through the thread you mentioned, and the girl was just lying up and down. She even said that after residency, a medical doctor will begin work as a junior registrar. And this is a lie, because a resident doctor becomes a consultant after residency. In fact, he or she begins residency as a junior registrar and ascends the ladder to become a senior registrar, and finally a consultant at the end of the training. You deliberately deleted that part. So, you want me to believe fake information that's unverifiable and lacks in substance?

You're just a pharmacy student; you're not yet a pharmacist. Even your reasoning and written English attest to that.

I went through his profile. He's a medical sales rep just like some pharmacists, biochemists, microbiologists, etc. He doesn't work specifically in a pharmaceutical company. Besides, he has his own private business. So, it has nothing to do with being a pharmacist. That's to say, it doesn't mean that since a non-pharmacist earns this much, pharmacists will earn more. It's strictly his hustles that earned him that. It wasn't only his salary.

So, see what gave him money. He even said that he earned N400 - N450 as a whole, not just his salary alone. He stated that he also sells surgicals. From his post, I can deduce that he's a serious hustler just like any serious businessman wil be, and he had put in a lot of years in his business. He even registered as a distributor for 3 pharmaceutical companies and also has his own business.

Some pharmacists who are sales reps may not earn as he did, because he added his private hustle to it. The medical sales representative job is based on hustle, just like bank marketers. In fact, they can't make it if they don't hustle. So, it's not strictly a pharmaceutical job. Anybody can be employed to do it. Just show me the salaries of pharmacists employed to work inside the multinational pharmaceutical companies in Nigeria.

I was doing a master's degree then. So, I thought of taking JAMB UTME since I still had interest in medicine. So, I came unprepared. Somebody advised me to use my first degree.
