The next time you go for an appointment especially in a public hospital, remember
that many healthcare professionals are relocating abroad . The ones left are over worked ,owed and underpaid. Imagine 1doctor to 50 patients …. You better give them respect and grace.

So if Alex Onyia didn’t decide to take these kids to Rome, you mean the world would not have seen us win gold?

Some other country would have won and we would have thought they were the brightest on earth?

Bad Governance is hiding the greatness of Nigerians.

I’ve said on previous tweets that Nigerians are the brightest and smartness people on earth. No enabling environment to showcase that brilliance.

[Nelson Mogaka @NelsonMogaka_]

As a young doctor, my dream isn't to be the smartest person in the room.
It's to be the doctor patients trust, colleagues respect and families remember long after the treatment is over.

[Ayo @Alhajirostova]

fuel is no longer subsidized. even federal universities, which are supposed to be affordable, are now expensive. we're paying a fortune for gas. housing is out of reach for many people. security is non-existent.

so what exactly is the government doing for us?

I don’t know man, I think still going on with the ojude oba celebrations is quite tone deaf.

[DR. STRONG @UkwuezeEmmanu15]

A 66 yr old retired Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgeon was kidnapped about 5 days ago and the kidnappers are demanding for a ransom of 70M .

This is someone who has trained thousands of medical doctors during his career of over 40 yrs.

This is not the Nigeria we envisioned 💔💔.

Teargas in a Hospital, a Thoughtless Act.

I have just read the recent troubling reports of how the operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) allegedly stormed the University of Uyo Teaching Hospital in a bid to arrest Professor Eyo Ekpe, a professor of cardiothoracic surgery and deputy chairman of the hospital’s medical advisory committee.

While I understand and respect the fact that the EFCC, and indeed, all other government agencies have their constitutional rights to do their jobs without interference, the manner in which some of these jobs are carried out is often deeply troubling.

Reportedly, the EFCC operatives who stormed the hospital shot some teargas canisters within the hospital premises which sent medical staff and patients running for safety. This thoughtless act greatly compromised the general safety in the hospital environment and further jeopardised the health of the medical personnel and the sick people in the hospital.

I have always said that the most fundamental intangible asset upon which any nation functions effectively is the rule of law and order. The disorderliness allegedly demonstrated by the EFCC operatives at the hospital must not be encouraged. Nothing justifies the use of teargas canisters in a fragile hospital environment. Do we not realise that our hospitals are part of our most critical contributors to development?

We must also learn to respect the lives and dignity of our citizens. If a Professor of Cardiothoracic Surgery is arrested in such a demeaning manner in a hospital environment, what signals are we sending to other medical professionals working hard to keep our health sector afloat? It is reported that Nigeria has only 80 cardiothoracic surgeons serving its 230 million people, and the Prof Eyo Ekpe is the only one in Akwa Ibom State.

Let us learn to do better. Let us condemn and eschew the rascality and disorderliness that have continued to characterise some of our public offices and bring in civility in the discharge of our duties.

A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO

I’m just so hurt that this is the future I’m in.

I really had high hopes as young girl.

lol I really thought we would have made significant progress as a nation. Couldn’t even imagine it any other way.

I’m so disappointed in the Nigeria we have today.

utterly bitter

Idk how to put this but Doctors are genuinely oversharing on twitter now. That’s exactly why people feel they can get tl consultations.

Doctors on this app talk too fucking much.

Tomorrow when they come to accuse us of doing trial and error you’ll start twerking your lips.

Our profession is SACRED ffs!!!

[Atiku Abubakar @atiku]

The Nigerian Association of Resident Doctors should not have to beg for what has already been agreed upon. The Federal Government signed a deal on the Professional Allowance Table, and now it wants to abandon it. This is not governance; it is betrayal.

Our resident doctors are the last line of defence in hospitals that are already collapsing. They work gruelling hours, in impossible conditions, for pay that insults their sacrifice. And now, the government seeks to take away the little that was promised? The Tinubu administration must demonstrate commitment to the issues: 19 months of unpaid Professional Allowance arrears; promotion arrears gathering dust; a Medical Residency Training Fund stuck in bureaucratic limbo; and a government that treats its doctors as an afterthought and remains unconcerned as they flee the country in droves.

Every doctor Nigeria loses to the UK, Canada, or Saudi Arabia is a failure of leadership, not a failure of patriotism. You cannot ask people to serve a nation that refuses to honour its own word.

I stand with NARD. Pay what you owe. Honour what you signed. Or explain to 200 million Nigerians why their hospitals will go dark on Tuesday. -AA
