Lagos State Governor Babatunde Fashola this evening re-instated all 788 doctors that the state sacked a few weeks back after the doctors embarked on a strike the Government called illegal. The leadership of the Doctor's Association met with reps of the Government and they settled their differences. Now alliswell.
We thank God
ReplyDeleteAdupe ooo
ReplyDeletegd progress long live lagos state
ReplyDeletethought he didnt employ them
ReplyDeletethought he claimed he cant recall them since he wasnt their employer
ReplyDeleteThank God!
ReplyDeletePolitics. Politics. Politics. While they were busy striking and playing politics and holding the public to ransom, lives were lost. Were the doctors right to strike? Was the government right in sacking the doctors? The public needs to know. There has to be a public inquiry. In the strike, the public who needed healthcare, lost out. Hopefully legal measures will be put in place to stop this from happening again to the medical profession, the government and to the public.
ReplyDeleteȊ̝̊̅† takes α̲̅ Ǧ☺☺ϑ leader Ƚ٥ over turn bad decisions, fashola swallowed his pride by Recalling the sacked doctors. Jona, unilag ȋ̝̊̅̄§ waiting Oº°˚˚°º! Don't let the court of law disgrace you Oº°˚˚°º
ReplyDeleteƔ☺ΰ re still sleeping beta wake up bcs NUC has made changes already
DeleteSo wat was the point?
ReplyDeleteWe thank God for that
ReplyDeleteSo what will happen to the newly employed doctors?
ReplyDeletethank God.Now,all is indeed well
ReplyDeleteeveryone needs a second chance...
ReplyDeleteNow that's the sensible Gov Fashola that that we all know and voted for. He is back to his senses now, I think he had some brain-waves when he sacked the doctors 2 weeks ago - it's okay, we are all humans and it happens sometimes.
ReplyDeleteVery reasonable man, he is!
BRF is an objective and reasonable governor. He might av made mistakes in d past but he got himself back on the right track.
ReplyDeletei rili do nt knw anyoda reason 4 d sacking at 1st apart 4rm d fact dat d doctors were only fighting 4 dier rites...as a mata of fact i hv decided nt 2 get all emotional abt d whole talk since it was raised,bt i jst nid 2 mke it clear dat am disappointed at fashola 4 having at 1st sacked d doctors dat he ws aut 2 hv engaged in sme sort of dialogue till a profound agreement was reached n am also disapointed on d doctors who decided 2 embark on d strike at 1st being led by dia personal interest dat goes against dier oats on saving human lives.GOD BLESS NIGERIA,GOD BLESS FASHOLA,GOD BLESS D DOCTORS,GOD BLESS LINDA,N GOD BLESS ME
ReplyDeleteY wud he not reinstate them this 3days strike would have crippled the health system all because of selfishness and sturbborness of one man
ReplyDeleteko te le...he no get liver!
ReplyDeleteSo, Gen. Fashola take a HUGE bite outta d humble pie.hehehehehehehehe
ReplyDeletegood. now back to unilag, sorry maulag.
ReplyDeletehmmmmm . . . and the beat goes on . . . .
ReplyDeleteSo what has changed?
Has the Consolidated Medical Salary Structure been implemented yet?
So the family and peoples lives that were lost, jeopardized and traumatized was for what?
All they succeeded is inflicting pain on the poor citizenry of Lagos. Shebi when push came to shove, Fashola's papa was flown abroad for treatment? So in what way was he or the elite rulers affected?
When will we learn as a people?
fashola sef. plenty people haff died cos of this strike o.
ReplyDeleteDat is d fault of d sElfish doctors... Dey left dem in d first place
DeleteKeep displaying ur ignorance. I'm sure u dunno the facts about the case just what u have heard from the biased media. So go ahead and expose ur absolute ignorance!
DeleteMr Know all, pls educate us on the facts! Ur uncle Fashola obviously couldn't find more drs to employ so he saw no way out! Don't hold ur govt to acct, if it was GEJ ud all be bleating...
DeleteOk noted. dey shuld look for a way to wake dos patients dt are dead...#arantnonsense.
ReplyDeleteDs country is full of drama.
MR foolish...what was he thinking. Now its time to sack Inept Jide Idris...His lack of wisdom is the biggest problem
ReplyDeleteLeader that think well. They know when they've gone wrong and listen to the people. Not Leaders like JONATHAN EBELE GOODLUCK that let their pride of being defeated get in the way of their logical reasoning.
ReplyDeleteGov. Fashola is a great man and a true democrat, God bless him..........I.E.E
ReplyDeleteI kno dey must settle cos Doctors ar D no 1 citizens 'Yeah I said it'
ReplyDeleteGood to know he can put his ego aside nd remember dt some of dese doctors vote for him......I knew he was fighting a lost battle from the onset........ok doctors, go back to wrk.....u services are very essential.....tnk u
ReplyDeleteDats d problem, if u knw dat ur services is dat essencial, why den embarkon d strike in d first place?? D doctors hav 2 be considerate 2
DeleteSo because their services are essential they should be treated like crap, abi? See how selfish humans are?
DeleteOur dear boy boy has finally listened to his OGA TIINUBU, Fash is an embarrassment, Im not proud of him, i don't believe he is a true lagosian..
ReplyDeleteSo its only ACN leader that can make u rescind your action. After all the pleading from citizens.
Personally, i can never ever vote for a FASH!!!!
Anyway, congrats to the doctors,
Sharrap
DeleteU r a very biased human, u 4 some psych evaluation
DeleteThank God ooo :)
ReplyDeleteHehehe governance!!!! Na. Waoo irational decisions !!! Y sack dem @ d first place??? *smh*
ReplyDeletehow can all be well when some people have lost their lives
ReplyDeleteNow at what cost to the common man abeg? If this country were one that bothers with statistics, you'd be amazed at the number of deaths stacked since the begining of this unnecessary strike.
ReplyDeleteI wonder when our rulers as exemplified by the likes of His Emperor B.R. Fashola that there is strength and definitely not weakness in backing down. It's not cowardice to make a U-turn. I thought they learnt something from the Occupy Nigeria experience.
Lives would have been saved and injuries or ill-health turned around and healed by now had The Emperor only but not called the bluff of these doctors. They may not be perfect but for crying out loud, doctors too need the good life(now don't think I no get my beef with them).
Fashola, as much as my instincts are powered to bad mouth you and give you a thumbs down, I want to be magnanimous enough to say, thanks for eating humble pie.
Now, that is how you do it!!
ReplyDeleteI beg to differ...these doctors should be allowed for the grief they caused. Do u know how many lives were lost, a friend of mine lost his dad & another lost her first baby cos of the incensitiveness of these doctors *sniffs*, if you go thru their code, their primary objective is to save lives but they chose greed over that. I understand that they are fighting for their rights but then again u caused the loss of hundreds if not thousands of lives. Fashola, in as much as its a good thing u reinstated them, make sure they don't get paid for the weeks they were absent, I know it's notin compared to the lost lives but @ least they shld feel some pain. May the souls that were lost rest in peace but may the blood be on your heads, stupid & incensitve people. *hiss*
ReplyDeleteThe word is 'insensitive' dear. And no, the doctors are not to blame. Have u really read the facts? Ungrateful sombitches! U think drs are spirits? U think they aren't human?
DeleteWhat a sefless Governor we have*love u still even though u increased my tuition fee and baned my sug*nt fair though
ReplyDeleteIt's okay that gov. FASH humbled himself to recall the sacked doctors, but, i still pray for the day when leaders in this country will learn to make the welfare of the citizenry that voted them a top priority...all those that died during the strike and sack time have been sacrificed on the alter of ego and stubbornness. GOD help naija
ReplyDeleteYes! A good leader listens.
ReplyDeleteSo happy about this development. Is there any union or relationship in this life without misunderstanding?
Though some have passed on as a result of this singular action.
"so sad"
Well, I see this as destiny's way of providing job for those new doctors. Secondly, Leanda Lee please provide more details to this, I'd like to know if the increase has been implemented, abi it's same old same old, and another strike lurking around.
ReplyDeleteONOME says.......,..
ReplyDeleteNigerian super story drama part 2.
*whistling and walking away*
It has shown that Tinubu and not Fashola is Lagos Governor. After so many tax payer lives have been needlessly wasted, he has eaten the humble pie. ACN is confused.
ReplyDeleteGood Fashola. U have listening ears much unlike our Fisherman in Abuja.
ReplyDeleteNo hard feelings. Well done.
ReplyDelete@ianhairs u r an ignorant fool for blaming doctors for going on strike...and dat stupid lawyer called fashola is mad for sacking doctors in d first place. Useless black mentality *pissed*
ReplyDeletenah fear catch am and jona when dr nation wide threathen am say all would strike that nah dr power for you yeye governor after how many people died ehhh????
ReplyDeleteThe new doctors were not really employed. Most of them had other full time jobs and they were told not to resign. They were employed as casual workers and worked in four hour shifts
ReplyDelete@Khenind, state your argument / comment without being uncivilised. ianhairs is not a fool for speaking their mind. They don't have to agree with you or/and striking doctors. Don't attack free speech.
ReplyDeletesome of u doctors are so rude n any small thing like dis u wil embark on strike just 4 ur own selfish interest inorder 4 pple to patronise ur private hospitals to the extent u send patient to ur lab to carryout test instead of refering them to the govt lab.u had better change ur ways because u are wasting lives u supposed to protect..... doctors bewarned! u may not have a second chance next time
ReplyDeletekjkhh
ReplyDeleteDoes Tinubu have 2 intervene b4 our dear gov fashola knows what to do ni. its such a shame that he cant make decisions by him sef.
ReplyDeletetoy boi
Thanks God it's all over after over 6 weeks, na wa oh
ReplyDeleteAt least he now knows that the people are greater than their military democratic government.
ReplyDeleteAFter several people have died??? WHat did they gain? Issorai.... God de see...
ReplyDeleteUntil we hear d terms we wont know who ate the humble pie. It could even be the doctors. Trust me before the end of his tenure he will sack half of them
ReplyDeleteJonathan..hope u go listen to Ngozi or OBJ..ode oshi!!...small thing send army to Lagos..don't know how Emperor intended to get 788 experienced Doctors from..9ja leaders and show of strenght..abi na brute!!
ReplyDeleteWhat they were asking for was reduction on the tax government imposed on them. You even ask yourself what do Government use tax money to do.Lagos state government is only planting flowers and they give Tinubu company 2.8 billion naira monthly from tax as consultancy fee. Tinubu owes almost every good thing in Lagos, wait and see when Fashola leaves office you will see how rich he is, he might be richer than Tinubu.
ReplyDelete@Dr.Khenine, they went on strike first!!! only after they refused to go suspend the strike did he sack them. You cannot hold the government, the people and your patients to ransom. Did they expect the government to jump at their every whim just because we all know they are important? They went against the oath they took and they are at fault for all those lives that were lost. The governor even employed new doctors and that is to show that he tried to cushion the effect of their going on strike. People, be objective!!!
ReplyDeleteAll i can say is that: THIS IS TRUE DEMOCRACY. HIS GOVT DID WHAT NEEDED TO BE DONE, NEGOTIATIONS WERE MADE AND AGREEMENTS WERE REACHED, WHICH MEANS HE HAS A BRAIN INSIDE HIS HEAD AND ALSO HAS FUNCTIONING EARS ON THAT HEAD WHICH MAKES HIM LISTEN TO THE POPULACE...UNLIKE OUR DEAREST AND DUMBEST PRESIDENT WHO IS NOW IN LAGOS TO CAUSE ANOTHER ROUND OF TRAFFIC AS HIS SECURITY DETAILS BLOCK EVERY MAJOR WAY SO MUCH THAT I HAD TO WALK ALL THE WAY FROM BONNY CAMP TO MY OFFICE AT BAR BEACH. RUBBISH
ReplyDelete@willadebo
At least now, the fear of God has been put into government employed doctors. They'll forever think twice before waking up to say they want to go on strike. Nice one BRF.
ReplyDeletei think this is the wiseest to do by the Government.If the Government does not call back the doctors, it is the masses who will suffers it.Remember Where Two Elephant Fights,is the Grass That Suffers.
ReplyDeleteThank God it has come and Gone. By now Doctors must have learnt their Lessons.Kudos to Fashola a point proven.
ReplyDeleteFashola fashola....DRs r powerful o...abbi u no been know?
ReplyDeleteThis story is misleading! Lagos state only recalled
ReplyDelete38 of the sacked Doctors
call a spade a spade,, Fashola listens,,, unlike GEJ..
ReplyDeletesome people on this blog think from their anus.u blame d docs for going on strike in d 1st place wn they took an oath.revisit d oath it does not say save a life and kill urself.for d crackhead that said docs send ppl 2 their private lab.wn they send u there don't go.do they have ropes on ur neck?u freakn own ur life.@ fash u fink u tot dem a lesson?
