VERSUS

Most actors lives on endorsement, I don't believe they earn like the way athletes earn in my country (Nigeria) but when we talk about celebrity money we are talking about the athletes, they earn enough but artists and actors too earn money compared to teachers and doctors, do not get me wrong, I rated the athletes as number one earners in my country, who wouldn't mingle with them when alot of money is involved.
One of the athletes in my country owns a five star hotel in the federal capital territory and no one will question him because they all know where the money is coming from but can a teacher try that hell NO, the next day EFCC will knock at his or her door.
Teachers are being ridicule in my country, the government do not value them and they are the one doing the biggest job in the country, they impact knowledge unto the student, they work their life out unlike the athletes that earn billions of naira per week not to talk of month.
The way the government are treating the doctors too are very very poor compared to the way they value the athletes, I remembered when my sister was about to gave birth, she was in labor and her husband drove to the hospital where she registered for antenatal but on getting their the security told my sister that the hospital is on strike, can you imagine, hospital on strike, the husband drove out and went to another hospital same story before taking her to a private hospital which charges heavily, it was God that saved my sister's life because I do not believe hospitals will be on strike but they will surely embark on strike when the government are not treating them well.
The government hospitals lack equipment, not all government hospitals can carry out surgery, they will either refer you to another hospital or tell you that is beyond their power, it is because government do not provide proper equipment for them.
When we talked about celebrity money Actors too are in money, they have the money but not all of them, I believe those ones that are rich have another side Hussle apart from acting and all our musician most of them get their money through endorsement and performing outside the country but here in Nigeria government do not pay actor or artist at all, they work for their money.
It is very poor the way the teachers and doctors are been treated compared to actors, when we see most teachers on the street we will not recognize them but let's see any actor on the road we will jumped at them and take pictures with them and most of these people does not recognize us, they will even give you attitude.
After retirement the government will still size their pension and gratuity, they will not pay for what they work their life for, teachers are embarking on strikes as if they are going for weekends, that is because they do not treat them right, can athletes says they are embarking on a strike, it is not possible despite the way our footballers plays we still acknowledge them, despite no trophy, they still earn vigorously.
Yes I know most of the athletes are making us proud like Anthony Joshua, Tobi Amusan, Asisat Oshoala, Mercy Akide, Lucy Ejike despite she is on wheelchair she represented Nigeria at six consecutive Paralympics events from 2000 in Sydney to 2021 in Tokyo, winning medals at each competition, she won three gold medal, two silver medal and one bronze medal, they make us feel like a real Nigeria not all our footballers that they bring nothing to the table. Please no offense.
Let us look at Faith Odunsi who was crowned Mathematics Queen and the best in the world not only in Nigeria but in the world and the
national mathematics centre of Nigeria (NMC) has crowned Faith Odunsi for her outstanding performance in the National Olympiads Competition.
Faith Odunsi represent Nigeria at the Global Mathematics Competition, she defeated representatives from China, United States of America, United Kingdom and others. She solved 19 mathematics questions in just 60 seconds can you believe that, I believe her mathematics teacher will be the one to do justice to that. Let us appreciate our own, the teachers are really trying in my country, let us appreciate them not by stipend but let them earn well and more.
This is my entry for this week episode of #hl-w68e3 and happy new month to us all, I wish us a prosperous month in this new month.
All what you said are true to sincere, thanks for sharing
Thank you for reading
You are welcome
You have rightly said that in our country doctors are not given as much facilities as they want, so it is okay for them to come out on the road and strike.
Yes now, the salary is too low
Therefore, they have the right to strike and get their rights
That's just it, teachers especially needs to be celebrated, those people are suffering in silence. I just wish our government will do something about it.
I was shocked too when I went to hospital sometime ago, only to hear that doctors are on strike, meanwhile we went there for an emergency case, it was God that save us that day oo.
You can see, doctors on strike putting the lives of the citizens in danger but footballers can never be on strike when we do not have anything gaining from them
In Nigeria, Teachers and Doctors aren't appreciated at all. Everyone take their profession with levity. You have really said the right thing
Thank you dear
You are welcome
