Why do people always compare Nigerian professionals (especially doctors) to those in foreign countries?

Do we use Euros, Pounds, or Dollars in Nigeria? Why not compare the cost of medical school fees in those countries to what is paid here?
A starting salary of ₦400,000 in Nigeria isn’t bad at all when you consider our minimum wage. Why all this focus on doctors as if medicine is the only profession where pay is lower compared to overseas counterparts?

Abeg, make una let us hear word about all dis doctors mata, nobi only doctors de country dey affect.

School fees has nothing to do with the sacrifice put in the practice of medicine, in addition to the overall welfare and working conditions of healthcare professionals.

This is what sets apart the practice and healthcare system as a whole in advanced and organised countries from places like Nigeria.

Arguably, medics pay relatively higher than others in Nigerian universities, but that isn't the basis why healthcare workers have to be well compensated.

I thought he had a dislocated shoulder?

The judges caused that?

Portable was obviously more fit for the fight.

One punch almost sent sent speed Darlington on a 360 rotation spin.

OALandAgents:

Where is the new INEC chairman appointment?

Where is the Comptroller of Immigration Service appointment?
Where us chairman of NAFDAC appointm

where is Minister of Education?

Where is NDLEA appointments ?

NNPC nko?

For me, the most stupid leaders (also extending to the people) are from the South South.
Just imagine the NorthEast or Northwest in the position of the South South. Nigeria for learn new thing.

So what decisive steps should be taken to PREVENT such attacks on communities across the Country?

Clearly, the law enforcement agencies are not up to par.

Imagine Nigeria not larger than 2 states - California and Texas being under siege by bandits, terrorists and criminal herders for over a decade, but such can never be heard in a Country such as the US which arguably is the most hated Country on earth.

What the heck, even Ghana you no fit see this kind rubbish!

Nigerians need to wake up!

The least you can do for yourselves is clear all these idiots out by 2027.

Why weren't they arrested and prosecuted?

No confidence in law enforcement and judiciary?

Noisemaker

In 2017, idiots like this folk started sectarian crisis in Kaduna. KD youth taught them lessons in a language they understood within a very short period. Since then, no such crisis.

Now basically threatening the whole Country? Real idiot!

ALL those terrorists will be flushed out of the forests!

Clown

Where is the president?

Where are the governors of Fulani stock to make statements and visit these victims?

Why are these terrorists allowed to roam within the forests kidnapping, killing, raping and making tiktok videos?

And you expect these people to remain cowards until they die!

Ndenomy:


If aboki start retaliation now you go begin cry terrorist . You go dey only dey use your hand find wahala. I don’t jungle justice of any kind. Whether its the Deborah’s or The hunters that were extrajudicially killed. If dem begin kpai your edo people for Kano now the same you go come here to cry foul. Hypocrite

Retaliate against who? From Kaduna to Taraba to Adamawa to Benue, Platueau, Ondo, Edo, Ogun, Enugu, Bayelsa, Delta, etc? Who exactly? Every other Nigerian?

It's approaching the point where citizens in every one of the States mentioned above will decide to flush out the criminal elements in their forests.

BEFORE THAT, the killers of Deborah, the teenage sons of the police officer killed in Yobe a few days ago, and killers of women and children in Ondo, Enugu, Benue, Plateau, etc MUST be paraded.

Senseless oaf!

In fact, ALL the Fulanis perpetrating crimes in our forests MUST be flushed out.

Antoeni:
Nice One , That's The Only Language Those Evil & Heartless Killer Fulani Herdsmen Understand, They Will Come to a Village ,Go to The Farms Of Farmers Internationally Destroy Their Crops And Inflict Injuries On The Farmers in Most Case Kill The Farmers, Or Kidnap Them

If true, he probably did so out of retaliation to losses incurred by cattle grazing on his farm and apparently did not get any assistance from the so-called NGOs, government or law enforcement agencies, and resorted to such action.

It may also be unintentional.

From occurrences across the Country over the last few years, it's obvious the farmers and victims of criminal herders are not paid attention to because they choose to be peaceful and law-abiding.

When Nigerians are ready, they will focus on allowing competent, intelligent and bold individuals into governance, not the double-dealing opportunists seen today.

P1PrinceKT:
The assailants need to be brought to justice and, cos if we continue this way other southerners will not find it funny in the North we will continue to educate every bit of malicious things that happen to any Northerner in the South for reprisal.

Oh really? With this logic, and the number of Southerners being kidnapped and killed in the North, the South is sure lagging behind in of reprisals.

dederocs:
Mr Governor your work is to serve Edo people and protect them and their property, your work is not to serve Tinubu.

A vigilante member was stabbed, the vigilante men were defending themselves from 39 armed bandits. Mr Governor secure Edo forests, declare all Fulani and northerners leave the forests of Edo State,if you want to live somewhere rent a house In the town, only animals, terrorists and bandits live in forests.

Create a forest guard to patrol Edo forests, these bandits have sorrounded Edo forests, we must go in and flush them out by any means necessary.

You're one the few on this forum to state what actually escalated the situation. We're waiting for the 'investigations'.

During the search, there was resistance and one of the occupants stabbed a vigilante personnel. This led to what happened.


But even more importantly, with the level of lack of confidence in the government in saving lives and properties, coupled with their apparent inability in neutralising these kidnappers and killers in the forests, this incident would be replicated in many other States in no time.

SporaD8:

I carpeted all Southern leaders including Tinubu, Obasanjo, Obi, Akpabio, Gej, Amaechi, Soludu, Ezekwezili, Natasha, Osinbajo, All Pastors, Ezes and Obas.
Tinubu is one voice and will not lead Nigeria forever. Holding one man, who is possibly a sellout, able while excusing others is what box the South in this currently corner.
Atiku has spoken from Adamawa, Kwakwanso from Kano, United Northern Governors forum have spoken in Unison. Pray tell, who spoke for Enugu? Any protest for the abducted and executed bishops?
Has any Southern leader lend his voice to the protest against the waves of insecurity in Ondo?

Three days ago, two boys were murdered by a mob in Yobe because they were sons of a police officer; the officer who escaped was warned to return to wherever he came from the South. No statement from any of these funny people. No manhunt.

As for Southern leaders, I've always maintained most of them are just opportunists whose only priority is themselves. Many of them with even questionable characters and criminal records.

The government should buckle down on their primary responsibility of providing security to Nigerians, or else, frustrated Nigerians will replicate such incident in various parts of the Country. Such has never happened in Edo, but the menace of persistent kidnappings and killings in recent times has caused some agitation amongst the people. People will begin to react.

Destroyerofyeeb:
Edo bastards, they must be caught before we retaliate. Una think say nah una dirty cult fight Abi . Una don price una must pay

Do you know why this is a critical security issue?
The so-called 'retaliation' would be met with even more brutal response from the Edos. That's what every smart person is trying to curtail.

But the failure lies with the government. Such incidents would soon be replicated in various parts of the Country in no distant time as the government has proven to be unable to protect the lives and properties of law-abiding citizens; Nigerians will begin to act for themselves in respect to security matters.

Citizens also have to be aware of their environment. It's unwise to travel with weapons in present Nigeria where practically most parts of the Country suffer from insecurity, kidnappings and killings.

The government has performed woefully in securing citizens. People are now agitated.

People are frustrated and agitated. This is unfortunate.

Edo Central has been experiencing a high incidence rate of kidnapping and killings, and the government has failed in protecting lives. People are beginning to take laws into their hands.

At 65!

This is serious!

Na collabo

onatisi:

Damage has been done already

It can't stand.

Even in the kingdom of wild animals, there is some level of sanity and decorum.

The exercise was actually criminal and will be probed.

tuoyoojo:
Politics is a dangerous and dirty game

Imagine the deceit

Only in Nigeria where low-life rogues are allowed to steer affairs of a largely debased population.

Rich4god:
El Rufai have been crying of recent. Complaining about the president. He even talked about the Chicago issue that we were shouting about before election. Now he's forming a repented sent.

When he was following tinubu upandan during campaign, he didn't know that the man has a questionable character.

It's obvious, tinubu is not dancing to the music of the northerners and they aren't hiding their displeasure about it. Am very much sure that this recent outbursts by el Rufai is part of the northern plan to unseat the president.

Let the south not fall for it, the north will try to lobby aggrieved southerners especially those from south east and south south to coalition with them.

I am not er of president tinubu, but for the good of the south, let any part of the south not any form of coalition with el Rufai.

Okay.

What if El Rufai and co intend to another candidate from the South?

The government of the day should take criticism and complaints from citizens in good faith. Attempting to intimidate or gag anyone would not only be futile, but counterproductive especially to their already dwindling popularity.

The criticisms they receive today are child's play compared to their condemnable activities against GEJ's government when they were desperate for power.

Homeboiy:
I am 500 Meters away from the place of incident

As I am typing now, another one will still happen

Traders are putting their goods at the center of the road

Come ring road now, them shade cover major road

And the place is a bend the corner

Edo State government needs to sensitize residents in the State to abide by the laws of the State.
The disregard for laws, safety and even common sense is at an appalling level.

Notably, commercial drivers deliberately violate traffic laws by ignoring traffic lights, driving against traffic and stop in the middle of the roads to drop and pickup engers. This can be tackled in a multifaceted approach. Just a few: i) engage the public through sensitization and awareness campaigns via the ministry of information and orientation regarding laws of the State and penalties
ii) place sanctions on the State NURTW whenever any of these drivers violate the laws. The agencies should just make video recordings the vehicles and the licence numbers. This would be a plausible way to generate revenue for the State while enforcing sanity
iii) ensure perpetrators are brought to book; penalties should be stringent;
iv) ensure corrupt personnel of the agencies face the full extent of the law; there are multiple cases of some of these personnel extorting law-abiding citizens, thereby bringing disrepute to the agencies and their colleagues who put in a lot of effort in their duty.
v) investing in networks of surveillance cameras, etc. If this is not feasible presently, recordings can be made by phone cameras and video recording devices installed in vehicles.

As for 'traders' who occupy the roads, Edo State government Must take full responsibility for whatever mishap happens there. For a government to be in a State and people flagrantly violate the State right in the capital city is gross irresponsibility.

Agencies such as PSRT and EDSTMA need to have their personnel trained for the tasks ahead of them, and those who compromise their efforts should be purged out of the agencies.
The military may have to be engaged at key spots to personnel of these agencies; they have our full .

Edo State government has to tackle this menace deliberately perpetuated by a few, which poses great risks and inconvenience to citizens of the State.

I don’t know the reason why deleted the initial thread created by @@@@

Someone may have reported the thread.

With our evolving world and improvement in information technology, the era of dependence on lies and fables will soon be extinct.

She's being witch-hunted because she is an Igbo minister.
What is 138M?
Whereas others steal millions and won't even get efcc invitation.
Leave that woman alone.
What is 138M?

You'll be shocked it's a fellow Igbo orchestrating the witchhunting.

What is your problem with South-South? Who told you it was named based on geographical coordinates? We choose to call it that - South-South and nothing anyone can do about it!

There are places in the world called South-Central and North-Central, with no funny characters asking stupid questions.

Ikwerres and co say dem no know una, una no go rest?

maivd:


This is what they are breeding in the north,now they have closed so for head slammers,some will not return to school again. They will momentarily begin the journey into the underworld. Boko Haram is a good case study. To hell with Islam.

Many of those perpetuating these things in Abuja are not Northerners. I've managed cases of victims abducted from this same Area 1 in the past.
Many are abducted through 'One Chance' (Along).

Attempting to portray an ethnic coloration with a few paid hungry folks?
