@Dr_Afo They have probably counted the retired and the unborn ones

@Deizwa_ Smooth transitions
I hope the gloves used to adjust that operating light was not the same used for surgery though

The person seated beside me in church today asked if i do a 9-5 or run a business
My response: “I am a doctor”
That definitely doesn’t qualify for either
Only if she knew i was still headed to work after church 😩

@dr_afo I will say it’s inappropriate to make such a generalized statement especially since i don’t think you presently work in UCH. While that might have been the narrative in the past which does not even apply to all specialties, it is not the current state of things
My own 2 cents 👌🏽

[Bukade @BukadeF]

@drpepple_ Peace of mind is subjective. Professional dissatisfaction can take away your peace of mind. You can doctor well in a role even if it isn’t what you would have preferred.
I will say it’s still a difficult trade-off.

NARD is not even asking for anything new, they are fighting for PROMISES ALREADY MADE AND BROKEN.

Our doctors are being owed
​Months of salary/allowance arrears, many are made to work in very unholy conditions.

When the strike starts, people might turn on the doctors and make them the enemy, meanwhile, the FG who should be held accountable thrives on the sidelines, meanwhile this strike is a symptom of a dangerously SICK HEALTH SYSTEM.

Healthcare has always been costly, very expensive actually, but the government needs to show the people that it cares about their healthcare and make sacrifices, explore other funding options for our healthcare.

You can't expect a healthy country if you treat your doctors anyhow.

A PASSIONATE CALL TO ALL NIGERIANS TO STAND WITH NARD

Fellow Nigerians!

Warm greetings from the Nigerian Association of Resident Doctors (NARD).

We wish to address you at this critical time as we embark on a total, comprehensive, and indefinite strike, a decision that did not come lightly, nor was it ever our desire. We are fully aware of the pains and inconveniences that accompany any disruption in healthcare services, and we deeply regret the situation.

However, this action has become inevitable, following the repeated failure of the Federal Government of Nigeria to honor its promises and implement the agreements reached with us after several rounds of dialogue, appeals, and ultimata.

Our demands are not selfish, neither are they politically motivated. They are genuine, germane, and patriotic, centered on the survival of the Nigerian health system and the well-being of every citizen who depends on it.

We fight not for personal gain, but for the creation of a system that allows resident doctors to deliver safe, effective, and compassionate care to patients in an environment that supports their mental and physical well-being. A resident doctor who is overworked, underpaid, and mentally exhausted cannot offer optimal care to the patient who needs them most.

Our demands include issues of excessive workload, fair remuneration, payment of arrears, improvement of working conditions, adequate staffing, and the provision of essential medical infrastructure, all of which directly impact the quality of healthcare delivered to Nigerians.

A nation’s health system can only be as strong as the hands that sustain it. If resident doctors are broken, under-motivated, or forced to seek survival abroad, the patients suffer most. This is why we have taken this painful stand to secure the future of Nigerian healthcare for every man, woman, and child who deserves quality care here at home.

We therefore call on all Nigerians; our patients, civil society groups, labour unions, religious and traditional leaders, and every citizen of conscience, to stand with us. Add your voices to ours in appealing to the Federal Government to do the right thing.

This is not a fight between resident doctors and government; it is a struggle for a functional, just, and humane healthcare system, one where your doctor can attend to you with a clear mind, a motivated spirit, and access to the tools needed to save lives.

Together, we can rebuild a system that values both the caregiver and the cared-for. We appeal to you to weigh in and urge the Government to address our demands urgently, so that hospitals can reopen, resident doctors can return to their duty posts, and Nigerians can once again access the care they deserve.

We always stand with you, and now we ask you to stand with us in solidarity and service to humanity.

Dr. Mohammad Usman Suleiman
President, Nigerian Association of Resident Doctors (NARD)
1st November, 2025.

@Cleverlydey4u Obviously he does have hope, unlike you. That you heard of one failed case does not mean there has not been many successful cases. Are all cases flown out too all successful? Do your research and speak with more tact next time! ❤️ and 💡

@tsamade @LagosVis Not even my plate number on both images

[Bukade @BukadeF]

Am i the only one receiving messages from @LagosVis about traffic offences committed by my car when I don’t even live in Lagos?
This is the 2nd time in 2 months, and both times the images on the website isn’t my plate number and a totally different car model? 1/2

[Bukade @BukadeF]

@tsamade @LagosVis No, different car and plate numbers both times

[Bukade @BukadeF]

@tsamade @LagosVis They were text messages

[Bukade @BukadeF]

Both times, my car was parked at work in a different state. To make matters worse, they don’t pick up their calls, emails do not deliver and their official handle has been inactive for almost 3 years. How can i get this harrassment to stop please? @jidesanwoolu
