Senator Ben Bruce as usual took to his Twitter handle to lament why Nigerian doctors are underpaid. The ‘common sense’ senators said while doctors in Canada are protesting that they are being paid too much, doctors in Nigeria are on strike for not being paid enough.
The senator probably aiming for a ‘thumbs up’ from Nigerians for the tweet got the exact opposite as many Nigerian twitter users blasted him for being a ‘hypocrite’ who should have done what the Canadian doctors did, by protesting the N13.5million as extra running cost amassed by he and his colleagues.At a time Canadian doctors are protesting that they are being paid too much (your eyes don't deceive you), doctors in Nigeria are on strike for not being paid enough. We can't pay our doctors well, but we can budget ₦1.1 billion to clean a government office. Which way Nigeria?— Ben Murray-Bruce (@benmurraybruce) March 8, 2018
Sir,you and your colleagues in the senate and House of assembly can also protest that your allowances are too much…what do you think?— Izuchukwu (@Izzo_Hova) March 8, 2018
When you and your colleagues take N13.5 million every month without protesting, what gives you the audacity to even hold this position?— TheNigerian (@UgohTersur) March 8, 2018
Why can't Nigerian senators emulate the Canadian Doctors?…. then we will know you are fighting people's cause… You can lead by example too..not just to attack presidency all the time … National Assembly is part of the system and problem sir.— adeniye ayokunle (@ayoadeniye) March 8, 2018
You seem to be oblivious of the fact that you're a
part of the all these inefficiencies & insensitivities! Why have
you not refused & stopped your colleagues from amassing N13.5million
as extra running cost as revealed recently by Senator Shehu Sani? Tell
us your part in it.
