MDCAN rejects PhD as prerequisite for lecturing on HWN SPOTLIGHT
The Medical and Dental Consultants Association of Nigeria (MDCAN) has rejected the alleged imposition of PhD as a prerequisite for teaching medical students and career progression in the university.
The association made this known in a communique issued at the end of its national executive council meeting (NEC) held on Tuesday.
MDCAN also proposed a single tenure for chief medical directors (CMDs) as well as Medical directors (MDs).
The association also asked the federal government to implement the Yayale Ahmed presidential committee report on industrial harmony in the health sector in Nigeria so as to restore sanity in the health system.
During the meeting, various points were brought up concerning the health care delivery of the country citing the continuous disruption of service in hospitals adding that currently the National Association of Resident Doctors (NARD) is on a nationwide avoidable strike action at a period Nigerians needs health services the most, the communique read.
The members were not pleased with the way people entrusted with leadership position in the hospitals were refusing to pay allowances to medical doctors while paying all non-medical doctors the same.
They added that this is in spite of the clear directive by the supervising ministry blaming this for the avoidable and recurrent disruption of service; thereby depriving Nigerians the much needed health care services.
There were also claims that some authorities in Nigerian universities attempt to discredit the honour of medical lecturers by falsely accusing them of receiving double salaries and embarrassing them by petitioning them to Independent Corrupt Practices Commission (ICPC).
The practice of paying medical lecturers salaries in the universities and honorarium for work done in the teaching hospitals is enshrined in the regulations of the civil service of Nigeria.
