In a global pandemic, the Federal Government of Nigeria has not paid her doctors ( House officers) since December 2020. The House officers are the youngest, most vulnerable and defenseless group of doctors and have no one to fight for them yet they are the most overworked member of the nigerian medical profession.

This situation has led to the collapse of an house officer in the University of Portharcourt Teaching Hospital in Rivers state after working for 72 hours straight. Yet as at today 5th March, 2021, these group of doctors all over the federation have not being paid January and February salary. A hungry doctor is a danger to the public and himself.

This is Dr Okorie Ifeanyi Venatus,an intern Doctor in UPTH. He collapsed with his forehead to the ground after a 72 hour shift as the only House Officer in the unit.

He and other intern Doctors all over Nigeria have not been paid for 3 months now (Since December 2020).

I'm literarily crying. God bless you for this Sinach. This country is an eye sore. Please who knows how to get this country to work?

Please why do 'some' nigerians desperately want Trump? Please kindly enlighten me because I don't understand.
Someone that uses any opportunity he gets to disparage your person and continent. He is overtly racist, uncouth and a top notch hypocrite disguising as a christian apologetic to win evangelicals votes.
Please what do Nigerian trump ers see in him?

Hope the USA now knows that nobody is self sufficient. They have been treating the rest of the world like shit. May this pandemic end soonest

This is seriously serious! Strike of more than 400 days. I shudder to imagine what many students of this school have become; an idle hand is the devil's workshop. Federal government should be kind enough to come to the aid of this school

To all the aspirants, try to press your ission in the place of prayers and give your credentials to anybody you know in Unilorin ( especially people going for a very competitive course like Medicine). May God grant you all your heart desires.

Please guys i had 251 in jamb and 78 in my post utme can I get in for medicine?!!! I'm scared

. @ itskhadijah, 78% is a good score. Congrats to you, you have scaled the first hurdle. But UNILORIN medicine ission is alittle complex. Your state of origin and a few connections have parts to play in your ission. What state are you from?

Yes you are right and have only repeated what doctors have been saying. The CEO, AKA chairman of board AKA policy maker of the hospital must not be doctor and that already happens. You further corroborated that the medical director AKA CMD must be a doctor, that's what we are also saying. We have also researched and found that nurse and pharmacy consultants exist but not in clinical/hospital settings. Thanks for buttressing our points! Finally I agree strike shouldn't be a first or middle resort but a last resort and that's why NMA at its wit's end, has resorted to strike. I think it's justifiable and recently in 2012 doctors in scotland went on strike too.

I've sent it

Thank you sir. I'm really grateful.

I was in this shoe once. Reading ahead of pre-clinicals. Now let me pause here to give an observation.

Excelling in Pre-Medical year is much about how well you observe tradition in your school and also about how much you work hard. What do I mean by tradition?

Example, If tradition has it that notes are the rate limiting step for zoology, and you kill yourself with hardwork over some zoology textbook, you are so on your own. If your seniors say note is what is needed, you have no business going outside your notes.

Pre-Meds (especially those just itted) in your various med schools, do well to have someone in the class just above you - to feed you with updated ways of ing each course well and avoiding pitfalls.

Pre-Clinicals is much about how well you are smart to revolve your time about the volumes of Gross Anatomy, the ambiguity of Embryology , the vagueness of Histology and still have a headway in the intense volumes of mechanisms and processes in Physiology coupled with the dense pathways of biochemistry.

You have to be smart with your time. How much time you invest in a course will determine how smoothly it would go for you.

Some people end up doing so well in Anatomy or Biochemistry (because they are perceived as difficult) while their Physiology is very leaky. [b] You must strike a balance. Zeal may not help too much here. You need to be smart.

For those reading ahead of Pre-Clinicals, I recommend that you avoid Keith Moore (for now). Why? It's too voluminous and you will only end up reading too much stuff. Mostly irrelevant stuff. For your Gross, I endorse Snell's Clinical Anatomy. For histology, I endorse BRS Histology. For Embryology, I endorse BRS Embryology. You can get the BRS Books off the net.

I used Snell's, BRS Histo and BRS Embryo. I never had below a 69% in Anatomy and my Physiology and Biochemistry was perfect. I never even read so zealously.

I had people that used Keith Moore and all other popular books but came close with so much zealous work. What if I was zealous? Food for thought.

For Physiology, I endorse either of Guyton & Hall or Ganong or Fox Physiology. BRS Physiology is good. I used Guyton and BRS Physiology and stood a chance at a distinction viva. Medical school politics stood in my way. It's a long story.

For Biochemistry, I endorse Vazudevan Biochemistry. There's Harpers Illustrated Biochemistry and Lehninger Principles of Biochemistry for lovers of hyper-stuff. My combo was Vazudevan and Kaplan Biochemistry. I used Kaplan more.

Your note would be the most important thing you will need. Make sure you copy well.

Managing information in med school is very important. There are too much information you don't need circulating in standard texts. You must be wise in knowing what you need. This is where a syllabus comes in. I have a standard and comprehensive MBBS Syllabus for Pre-Clinical year gotten from a Med School somewhere in Europe. It's a standard syllabus. It's in .pdf. There's an email address in my profile. If you need it, send me a mail.

Good luck to all pre-meds and pre-clinical folks. Even to aspirants. Bless!!!

@Dr lomaxx, thank you sir. Please I need this standard and comprehensive MBBS Syllabus you were talking about but there is no e-mail address on your profile as you claimed. PLEASE HOW CAN I GET IT?

@Dr lomaxx, Please I need that MBBS syllabus you talked about. HOW WILL I GET IT SIR. Please respond.

Happy birthday Dr Charleymed. Wishing you LLNP and many happy returns.
