Atleast we now agree that doctors are wicked, egotistical, unprofessional people like every other Nigerian. We are not called by God. We are normal people that want to work, sleep, eat and get paid and go home just like Bukola from marketing.
This exam still haunts me…
This is ABUAD ANATOMY (2026)
Me sef know say I write EXAM.
Before you say anything remember “Exam is only easy when you’re not the one in the hall”

There is no dignity in suffering, and medicine is not martyrdom. Nobody should be Ambu-bagging a baby with recurrent apnea for six hours and calling it heroism. That is not standard care. That is waste, exhaustion, and predictable harm dressed up as virtue.
The standard is simple: when apnea is recurrent and you cannot stabilize the child on conservative measures, you intubate, you mechanically ventilate, you secure the airway, and you do your actual job not perform a six-hour manual-resuscitation circus while the unit runs on vibes and prayer.
Six hours of Ambu bagging is total rubbish because:
- It burns out the doctor who should be thinking, not pumping a bag until their arms fail.
- It abandons other neonates who also need attention one baby gets a marathon, the rest get neglect.
- It does not fix recurrent apnea; it delays definitive management.
- The outcome you’re gambling with isn’t “grateful parents on Twitter” it’s hypoxic brain injury, cerebral palsy, and a lifetime of disability because oxygenation was treated like a stamina contest.
No junior doctor will tell you six hours of Ambu bagging was a good experience. It’s a bitter, traumatic experience nobody should have to witness or repeat. Praising it doesn’t elevate medicine it normalizes dysfunction and tells owners of broken units: “Keep understaffing, keep missing ventilators, keep praising manual heroics we’ll clap instead of fix.”
Stop applauding exhaustion.
Stop romanticizing what should never happen in a functional neonatology unit.
Call the owners of that unit facility managers, hospital administration, state health leadership to equip, staff, and protocolize: working ventilators, trained personnel, and clear escalation to intubation and mechanical ventilation on time, not after six hours of manual bagging for likes and pity posts.
Praising a doctor who Ambu-bagged for six hours isn’t respect. It’s complicity in a trash system that leaves no room for improvement because everyone’s too busy clapping martyr theatre instead of demanding dignified, standard neonatal care.
Do the needful. Intubate. Ventilate. Fix the unit. Or shut the unit.
Anything else is noise and the baby pays the price.
URGENT CALL FOR HELP!!!!!
This is a young medical doctor called Dr Innocent. He’s working as a house officer at the Nigerian Navy Reference Hospital in Calabar, Cross River State.
Dr Innocent and his other doctor colleagues who are also house officers have NOT been paid for 290 days.
Yes you read that right.
A whole 290 days of working as a medical doctor with ZERO pay. That’s about 10 months work with NO pay.
According to Dr Innocent,
The Ministry of Defence has refused to pay their salaries for no reason. This young medical doctors are being worked like slaves while receiving ZERO pay.
They have nobody to speak for them.
They have nobody to fight for them.
They are suffering and dying in silence.
Please if you see this tweet,
Kindly retweet, share and tag General Christopher Musa the Minister of Defence, and also please tag the Ministry of Defence,
I don’t know these doctors personally,

Pls share and retweet. Thank you.
The @TheBMA agenda committee in the ongoing ARM has rejected all emergency motions by IMGs. It has instead accepted 7 emergency motions on the SAME TOPIC that has been extensively discussed during the conference.
@TheBMA is showing itself to be loudly&proudly anti-IMG.
I'm sorry but if I found out that my child was going to have some congenital anomaly or a severe birth defect, I would pick abortion.
I cannot willingly bring a child into the world to suffer.
Guys, I have retrieved my ₦100,000 from those lawless group of officers.

Hi @PoliceNG_CRU,
We made real progress today.
One of the notorious trigger-happy police officers was apprehended this evening.
He disguised himself as a concerned prosecutor right inside Akinpelu Police Station in the Oshodi Arena area, but my staff quickly recognized him. They caught him secretly taking pictures of me and forwarding them to his cartel members while simultaneously asking me to provide my home address, office address, and phone number.
We did not want to take the law into our own hands, but the DCO immediately ordered his men to detain him, seize his phone, delete all the pictures of me that he had secretly taken, and have him remanded.
His cartel members are still at large, including those who pointed an AK-47 at my head.
I will not rest until they are all brought to justice.
Thank you for your swift coordination and response to this matter.
These Police Officers just parked me at Bolade, Oshodi, pointed guns at me, and forced me to transfer N100,000 them. When my bank app showed "exceeded transfer limit", they dragged me to a nearby POS to do it with my card.
They initially demanded 150k each.
They were 4 in number.
These are the names I could copy:

Okay
This is the phone number of the notorious Officer Friday Ikpe 09136237110. I got it from his opay
