THE KSU MEDICAL SAGA.

   So,there is a new saga in the Country presently,apart from the Debate our very own President fumbled at *LOL* . The Students of Kogi State University; Medical students to be precise, has asked the Government to convert the Federal Medical Centre Lokoja, into a Teaching Hospital.

          What were These Students thinking actually!? For Christ sake,we all have to be sincere with ourselves. There is no way a less standard Hospital,with no adequate facilities like FMC Lokoja should ever be made a Teaching Hospital. A Teaching Hospital is where Medical Students practice the theory aspects of all they have been taught, and FMC Lokoja is a no way option for that.

       However,what these Students should be asking for is the accreditation of the Department of Medicine and Surgery. They should be pleading instead,that their course is properly accredited. Instead of asking for an option we all know would never be possible. And no body should give me reasons like I don't know what these Students are going through. That's a lame excuse,they knew what they were signing in for when They still picked the Institution knowing fully well it had no proper accreditation.

    A better option They would have seeked for, would have been the building of a Teaching Hospital by the Government;simple. That is what They should be fighting for!! Do you know how many lives I have witnessed that was lost in my short visit to The Federal Medical Centre Lokoja; a lot. Reason is; the Hospital is not standard enough. Yes I just said that. They deserve better,so They should ask for better.

    Plus,we know  the Government would never grant their heart desires at a time like this. My apologies though,but we All will agree that the Government of His Excellence Yahaya Bello has failed a lot, and this request of theirs is just another "MISSION IMPOSSIBLE".

    Dear Medical students of KSU,I feel your plight,but stop asking for the impossible. You deserve the best,work towards achieving the best. Selah.
