We the dues paying Nigerian doctors are unhappy that our leaders at the NEC meeting in Owerri and Abuja, removed an amendment request for our association to adopt one doctor one vote for our national elections.






The NMA NEC stepped down this item that will ensure accountability in a meeting attended by our leaders in National Officers Council (NOC) and National Executive Council (NEC) resulting in NO ONE voting to give you a right to elect them in that meeting.






One of their reasons, is that you are not matured enough... A medical doctor that makes live and death decisions everyday for patients, is not matured enough to vote their leaders ?






Let's tell them we don't agree.






Let's remind them that we have all the powers.






Let's take our right back.






Let's support this our moves by offering your signature to enable us demand a meeting and ensure we have this put back on the agenda of Calabar ADM in May 2024






One Doctor One Vote is your right(ODOV)









Thanks for your support

I really never expected this groundswell of energy (honestly it feels like people are finally waking up to the absurdity of the maturity argument) but here we are and it is wild to watch this turn into a real movement. It is just so obvious that we need to be heard at the Calabar meeting so let us keep this rolling until they have to acknowledge us.

How can they say doctors are not mature enough to vote? That is very insulting. Put ODOV back on the agenda now.

I stand for one doctor, one vote. No longer should our leaders be chosen through proxies or delegates.

One Doctor, one vote is the Nigerian Doctor's right and must be granted. Those vying for office in Nigeria medical association must know that the individual Doctor matters.

We are tired of the old system. Every single doctor must have a say in who leads us. Give us our right.
