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,
But we can’t watch evil and say nothing.
Please don’t let this young doctors suffer in vain, they have families who depend on them for support and survival,
It will only take you 2seconds,
Kindly retweet this post. This is the little we can do to help these doctors from the evil injustice done to them by the Ministry of Defence.
Pls share and retweet. Thank you.
BREAKING NEWS: Nigerian Resident Doctors have threatened to embark on total strike and industry shutdown by 31st, as Federal Government fails to keep to agreement.
Just for your information, Nigerian doctors are still on strike and people are dying in droves. The poor people who depend on the general hospitals that are affected are not saying anything. The rich keep using private hospitals and are not concerned.
And I like how we are all pretending like Nigeria is not in serious trouble.

DAY 24 OF OPERATION TICS
Dear Nigerians,
“…I hope Nigerians will understand that we need safe, effective, well-rested, well-compensated, well remunerated doctors, to continue these God-sent services…”
Tired doctors cannot give their best.
Unpaid doctors cannot stay motivated.
Overworked doctors cannot remain safe.
If Nigerians want doctors who save lives,
Nigeria must give doctors the conditions that protect theirs.
This strike is not against you
It is for a healthcare system that works for all of us.
Stand with us. Demand better.

They can borrow to buy jets.
They can borrow to buy yachts.
They can borrow to renovate the house of the Vice President.
They can borrow to buy new Toyota and Lexus SUVs every term.
But they can’t borrow to pay Doctors and Health Workers a proper wage.
We’re unserious.
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.
This is a Public Service Announcement.
Over 11,000 Doctors in 90+ teaching hospitals are going on strike starting on the 1st of November.
Here are the 19 demands 👇🏾 🧵
Grateful to say that after 7 years in medical school,
I swore the physician's oath yesterday and I have been officially inducted into the Medical profession.
Officially a Doctor!
God did!
