the country tire me..

The ruling class of thieves in Nigerian government have ruined this country on all levels. Thirty plus years of stealing and stealing has taken its toll.

Perm secs, directors, managers, ministers, governors, IG of police all nah thieves.

You're staying 8 yrs and you're complaining? How about students of Imo State University Teaching Hospital that stay 10 yrs + x??

tohpahz:
sorry..

This is pathetic.medicine in uniben takes a minimum of 8 years.UI should be better.

Modsenemy:
Uninteresting piece. Even d graduates are still roaming d streets .
Graduate full ground throway. So jst chill ! God is in control

u mean medical grads?

0gbeni:

0gbeni.. there's no crisis in OAU

did I mention anything relating to crisis? The school is currently on break due to the academic leave demanded by Lecturers. And the resumption date is june 24, OAU resuming 2015/2016 session in june 2016 is a sorry case.

You shouldn't be sad bro, it happens almost everywhere. In UNIBEN, the current 600L (graduating 600L cos there are two classes in 600L, old and new) have spent 8 years in school. . Even without strikes, it would have been the same so its not just strikes that extends the normal duration., the calendar Is just fvcked up..

The problem is simply over admission, your class size should be 25 then you push in 100 and expect a miracle. The space is for 25 ~ 50; Nigeria is a strange place.

did you even read the post?sometimes I wonder where we put our brains.

over admission isn't the problem in any medical school.it is strikes that make classes pile up,not overadmission.

Bro or sis,over admission is one of the problems.
In my set in 100L lautech,they were about 600/700 students admitted,den about 40 of us joined in 200L after crossing from various departments.
Den moving from 200-300L dey dropped about half and another more than half dat was dropped from the class before us,repeating the class,joined us,so we were about 600 in 300L! And ds was a class meant for less than 100 students. In order to graduate the number allowed for the school,classes piled up,and at some points,accreditation was threatened due to excess numbers and ds also slowed down the academic calendar.
I don't like remembering those days mehn!
Person eye c no b small!

I agree as a medic....and I would add that we do need to expand places for medical training.

Hey nairalanders, for the sake of privacy, I omitted the writers name

I was reluctant about sharing this post when I saw the my last post on patience but I want o share it because something's are very painful.
So let's do this...
My name is **** ****.The thing is_ there is a good news and a really bad news. The good news is that am done with all my postings after a six year training that lasted eight years in my school; University of Jos. It is supposed to be an accredited faculty and department but we spent eight years to complete all the postings. We had crisis but those in Maiduguri had worse. Oh... I remember, we also had strikes... so many from many angles. Thank God the postings are over.
The really bad news is that our exams has been postponed till further notice because there is an ongoing strike in the hospital. When the news came yesterday night, many of my mates cried. We had hoped that they would consider our plight and conduct the exams in other hospitals but they had made what we termed " the mean choice". Most of us have become apathetic about many things, the zeal that we once had has faded into insignificance. They have lacerated our emotions. Some of us are so confused now. Our rents are expiring, our parents are worried and guess what? No one has come to speak to us. Everybody complains of the falling moral and knowledge standard of doctors but look at the way we are trained; a training that makes us loose our minds. If we become strange kind of doctors, who have lost all empathy and emotions, who will blame us? God help us


It's really pathetic when I think of it, that this is happening at this time. This is the same University that went on a four month strike from last year October.
That's aside from the 4 months strike it went on in 2014 to 2015 because of students protest.
Thats just counting the recent ones oh.
How do you expect the zeal of the students to remain the same.
Presently, the set going to 400 level cannot start clinicals because there is no space in juth, so they have to wait for the final year guys to leave before starting. They've been at home for more than 6 months now.
I wonder when the education sector in Nigeria will improve.
I hope this reaches the right people, and something is done about it.

dats y i like UNN med sch....UNTH.......bros chill ...it wil.soon b over....#proudly medic#

This is disheartening. I graduated from Unilorin med school and I think that's the only plus they've got... stable calendar. While I'm aware that this problem is generalised for most med school in Nigeria, but I think JUTH is worst hit. The VC/ provost really needs some brain. The calendar in unijos is a crawling one. Pls guys keep sharing on all platform possible till the so called leaders of that institution perceive their irresponsibility!

Unilorin COHS?! WHat year?! MAT No. XX/47KCXXX?!
