Health / Re: Federal Doctors In Lagos Begin Solidarity Strike For Sacked Colleagues by reindeer: 10:58pm On May 19, 2012 |
@Kdular You spoke out of grudge and maybe i detect a tinge of envy in your statements. That seems to be the angle you're taking from. Get over your grudge and pettiness and see the facts of the issue and you'll feel a lot better. I wonder why these other health workers dont compete with doctors in better health systems. People should let go of their inferiority complexes and face issues, a government who signs agreements should have enough integrity to go through with it and notresort to cheap public blackmail. |

I've been advising my doctor friend's in LASG service to leave ASAP. Im happy i took that decision several years ago. It is obvious the government is undeserv ing of their service. .and worse still the people who should keep the government on their toes and demand good service are also castigating doctors for going on strike. Please if you're reading this as a doctor, don't hesitate to write your exams and get out ASAP. Leave for places where you're appreciated, where you work hand in hand with Nurses, Pharmacists and Lab technicians without envy or strife. There are jobs in the UK, loads of it. If in doubt check out www.jobs.nhs.uk, the pay is stipulated with each post and often comes with banding supplements(up to an extra 50% of the quoted salary). Nigeria needs doctors but it wont happen till doctors get their dues, till the government and the people realise the need for proper renumeration of people looking after their health. |
Politics / Re: ACF, CPC, CNPP, & Some Nigerians Defend Buhari's Statement by reindeer: 6:50pm On May 16, 2012 |
lukkie: Buhari spoke the minds of a lot of people. Nigerians are frustrated with this criminal enterprise calling themselves the govt. They have realised how dumb they were to vote the dumbo based on religious and ethnic sentiments.Thank you o! Everyone can now see GEJ has failed and continuing to fail. . .only problem is he has a retinue of failures following and deceiving him for money. Buhari spoke the minds of honest Nigerians. I will keep supporting him, we know where he stands. GEJ=PDP=BOKO HARAM=Bamanga Tukur. . .no be so? |
Health / Re: Lagos Issues Quit Notice To Sacked Doctors. by reindeer: 8:50pm On May 13, 2012 |
beneli: Well said.Most of us sign the opt out forms with the NHS when we resume any new post. This frees us to make a lot more money from locums. I think Nigeria's problem has to do with some people wanting exactly the same income without the same inputs with doctors hence the bad-blood. As a SpR with one of the northern deaneries, income from locum agencies alone gross me about 2.5k monthly(average £60-80) an hour, sometimes more. This is why we left the country and sadly more people will leave with this rash decision of the Lagos state govt. I only hope people will realise early enough and call the government to other. Fine, we all know the civil service needs reforms in nija. This would have been an opportunity for the LASG to make far reaching changes. i believe they can decide to pay more than the doctors demand but then ask for increased productivity. No more 'lifetime' employment. Make it renewable contracts and set targets. Contracts will put an end to incessant demands and contracts will be tied to performance. If indeed they are interested in making Lagosians enojy better services, this is the way to go. |
Health / Re: Lagos Issues Quit Notice To Sacked Doctors. by reindeer: 3:19pm On May 13, 2012 |
Just heard the locum doctors are paid 20k for 8hours and 30k for a night call. . . . Hmmm....not sure if the doctors would have gone on strike in the first place if they paid them at these rates. One then begins to wonder why the goverment is playing hardball. Obviously they realise the work doctors do is worth a lot more than they currently pay. Just read on a blog about Fashola's father being flown abroad for treatment, this is exactly why they can afford to toy with the lives of Lagosians by playing hard with doctors. Unfortunately the very people who should be applying pressure on the government to resolve this crisis. Eko o ni baje. |

kaz4sure: infact it was a sad news today in the campus, He died of cardiac arrest after which he was rushed to lagos university hospital in Idiaraba, how i wish we have the type of hospital where muamba was treated in Nigeria, it would ve been anoda news......May his soul rest in peace This is sad. . . .and the country is still sacking doctors instead of spending money to train and retrain medical staff. I hope someday people will realise that all the money you have will not save you in an emergency. God help Nigeria |

princey83: 10,000 applications? Do you have any idea the total number of doctors ever trained in Nigeria since inception of medical training and regsitration?Are you aware of the number practicing outside Lagos as a state? This is not counting the number who have died, left Nigeria, and those not practicing anymore. . .You sure need education before commenting. 1 Like |

princey83: You are so ill informed. I've been working in the Uk several years and every unit i have worked have taken new Nigerian doctors, 2 of my current SHOs in paediatrics are Nigerians, one was taken straight from LUTH(after passing his exams of course). So my dear, forget the propaganda they're feeding you with. Any Nigerian Doctor worth his salt will have absolutely no problem working in the Uk and you can drown your inferiority complex. 1 Like |
Health / Re: Lagos Sacks Striking Doctors by reindeer: 10:35pm On May 07, 2012 |
Oh great! More excuse for even the local govt councillors to take your money and come to the UK for treatment. The doctors will go to their private hospitals or finally leave the shores of Nigeria, afterall their services are better appreciated in saner countries. The losers?well, most of those applauding the silly government, these folks along with their friends and families will be the victims. Until people realise the politicians are their real enemies and not those demanding for their dues, you'll be the footmat in this titanic battle and unfortunately the only losers. 1 Like |
Politics / Re: Security Agencies Set To Expose Sponsors Of Terror by reindeer: 11:18am On May 05, 2012 |
So they know them? Why are they not prosecuting the sponsors? Is this some kind of charade to keep the gullible masses happy? Or just something to appeal to a section of the country by appealing to their paranoia about certain personalitites? Whatever the case, it is obvious this clueless government is getting worse and their lies are running thin. Azzazi said it, this is a PDP phenomenon. |

The norths r born to rule, since there r not in power, it makes them sad to the extent that they formed bgoko haram that is killing our profesos. Lol.

Donbrig: Some Nigerians could be very very foolish. All those that voted for Jonathan and not PDP are as guilty as boko haram. Pls, we should wake up and learn that there is nothing wrong with Nigeria but PDP. They are the party drawing Nigerians go their early grave.. GEJ once said we should learn to cope with bomb blast, of course we are learning to cope. We must accept things the way they are till 2015 where we're going to have another chance to choose PDP the party of DEATH or a new party for change and more united Nigeria. For now, we will continue to lose innocent souls till we make the right choice in 2015. Unfortunately they won't agree with you. A president who says it's ''our turn'' to be bombed has no right to be in the state house. Unfortunately again, they will come insulting you now cos you spoke the truth. Its a pity Nigeria is in a catch 22 position. 1 Like |

If Islam truly is the religion of peace, i expect a demostration from the muslims against all these killings. If a cartoon was published in denmark people will demonstrate,now is the time to see those peace loving muslims coming out openly to condemn this with public demostrations, except inwardly they enjoy a sadistic satisfaction from seeing innocent christian lives being taken. That being said, the useless government of GEJ needs to resign if he cant fulfil what he swore to do. I am tired of excuses of Boko haram being a ''northern'' invention to scuttle his presidency. For heaven's sake GEJ has all the apparatus of state at his disposal to do his wish. He is simply spineless to take on people he is afraid of. Nigeria at this juncture doesn't need a docile, uninspiring leader. He should either grow a pair or resign. 2 Likes |

Ah! i see! Reminds me of a particular clueless president who was quick to say ''it wasn't MEND'' after the oct 1 blasts. I see it's becoming the norm these days. He may be right though, since his government and the NSA know for sure who the real ''boko haram'' guys are. A very useless government |

Guess this makes it obvious GEJ and his men kow those behind the BH problem. They have refused to bring them to book because they are GEJ's friends and bosses. So much for those trying to pin the evil acts on Buhari and CPC. The hatred for the man will always make them mention his ame in something that clearly has nothing to do with him. He has never been a member of the PDP! There you go GEJ=PDP=Boko Haram. Hope we kick them out at the next election. 1 Like |

Once again, supporters of corryption will try to derail this thread from a fight against corruption to a tribal war. It is obvious though, anyone making illegal money from the status quo will fight tooth and nail to support the crime and sweep things under the carpet. The point though is that this corruption is selling out the future of the country, it is sinking the lives of the ordinary people of Nigeria regardless of where they live. This wanton wastefulness should be fought to a standstill and this SNG action hinges on the presdident doing 'nothing' about it. If GEJ is a honourable man, he will follow through on his promise to fight corruption and ensure everyone mentioned faces justice. If he does his job well then the SNG will be irrelevant. Folks, dont't let this degenrate into name calling as supporters of corruption will have us do, it pays them to totally avoid the subject matter and talk about persons, unfortunately for them people have long seen beyond this ruse, seems to have stopped working a while back. I may not always agree with ''rhino's posts but he sure deserves to be called T.B Rhino on this thread! |

Anyone will have to be severely mentally retarded, or plain incapable of sound reasoning to vote for ineptitude once again. Anyway, seeing the reasons people voted him last time, i would be surprised if evolution has caught on that much, i think some pre-historic reasoning will make some still vote for him. It will be a shame on Nigeria. |

I have to give it to the Yorubas. Your case(s) have been well summarized and stated. I'm not into tribalism but reading through these posts. They have it spot on and the people attacking them are just being mischievous and self delusional. To be honest, if this integration thing succeeds, it will be a model for the whole country to follow. That cannt be a bad thing, can it? Anyone who loves Nigeria will champion the cause of true federalism. I've been wondering about the whole fixation thing with the southwest and their governors in all the stories on this forum, methinks it's probably because they are active and achieving. One this is clear though, love them or hate them, there's one thing you can't do and that is ignore them. Wish i could say that for other governors in the country presently. 1 Like |

The real enemies of the Niger delta people are their elite who plunder them and then redirect their gullible minds at other ethnicities.

The general can have my vote this time and any other time. Only the foolish do the same things and expect different results. The country has been under the jackboot of the PDP for what?13yrs? All we have to show for that are the dashed hopes, worsening economy, increasing corruption and worse still an inept and unprepared man for President. I suspect it won't be a long time before the unsubstantiated and false accusations start to roll out against him. Any right thinking soul will understand these lies stem from ethnic and religious hatred, not sound reason. Nigeria needs a departure from the current and i believe the General can offer just that. |

If this story is true, then it's quite sad. Right now i've got niggling worries about the whole set up and i may be wrong. Maybe it's just that the proponents of action in this case are not getting their points accross accurately. If 'stagger'' suggested UNTH why won't the family of the patient run down there if thats where they'll get succour? Asking the person who suggested UNTH to get you contacts doesn't show any seriousness on the part of the patients. If anything im sure parents of a child in need will not hesitate to go to sokoto if that is where their baby might be helped. It is also quite easy referring from one teaching hospital to the other, letr UBTH refer her straight to UNTH, most specialists in teaching hospitals know each other especially in the same fields. The parents could also ask their consultant in UBTH to refer them to the specialist in UNTH, surely this can't be hard, its just one more letter. I just hope someone isn't trying to scam people by playing up the health of a child, that will be the lowest of lows. I just hope that isn't the case. |
