Leader of Opposition against the General Medical Council , Doctor Joseph Chikelue Obi, publicly notes the Recent Regulatory Publicity (and Kangaroo Hearings) which have wrecklessly been surrounding Dr Andrew Wakefield.
Dr Obi warmly wishes Dr Wakefield a Profoundly Satisfying Career elsewhere ; most especially now that many other Organizations like the Medical Licensing Commission (MLC) currently have Dedicated Professional Retraining Programmes for Embattled Medical Doctors.
Dr Joseph Chikelue Obi is therefore not surprised (in the very least) to have just been reliably informed that the (Highly-Publicized) Regulatory Investigations into Dr Mohamed Taranissi were all part of a Horrific Racist Vendetta .
To this effect , Dr Obi hereby unreservedly supports Dr Taranissi's Current Campaign for a Thorough Independent Public Probe into All Aspects of such Colossal Regulatory Shortcomings.
I hereby humbly request that all (well-meaning) Individuals urgently visit the Official MSF Website ; to see whether there is anything which can be done to Save Life or Optimize Health.
Thank You.
“The Doctor’s frequent role as Head of the Healthcare Team and Commander of Considerable Clinical Resources (fundamentally) requires that Greater Attention is paid to Management and Leadership Skills ; regardless of Specialism.
An Acknowledgement of the Leadership Role of Medicine is (becoming) increasingly evident.”
Professor John Tooke , Aspiring to Excellence, 2008
Dr Chikelue Obi is avidly working (behind the scenes) to see whether the Incoming UK Government will be minded to Order a Thorough Public Probe into the GMC's Colossal Regulatory Shortcomings.
Please therefore ensure that all official business is appropriately sorted out before the 30th of December 2009 ; or it will have to wait till sometime during Late February 2010 - since Professor Obi will be Graciously Holidaying Abroad.

Medical Council Regulatory Remodernization : Fundamental Strategic Element [ 6 ] : Do Not Emulate The General Medical Council
" The Current Regulatory Model of the General Medical Council is Fundamentally Flawed.
Any Medical Council (or Medical Board , or Regulatory Authority) , which foolishly emulates the General Medical Council , must be totally prepared to handle the Profound Consequences of such Wreckless Regulatory Treachery . . .
The major reasons why the GMC has easily got away with it (so far) consistently tend to have far much more to do with Systematic Judicial Bribery and Epitomal Governmental Corruption - rather than Good Professional Regulatory Practices. . . . "
* Professor The Rt Hon Laird Obi of Kincavel , Doctor Joseph Chikelue Obi FRCAM(Dublin)
If you Hear Something . . . then please kindly (at least) Say Something about it. . .
If ever you are privileged to See Something . . . then (for Heaven's Sake) you must unfailingly (actually) Do Something . . ."
This is to publicly confirm that the General Medical Council Opposition Leader and Chief Regulator of the Medical Licensing Commission (MLC) , Dr Joseph Obi , has privately backed the Newly Appointed Chairman of the Office of the Health Professions Adjudicator (OHPA) , Mr Walter Merricks ; who is officially scheduled to take over Full GMC Adjudication Powers with effect from the year 2011.
Before the OHPA formally begins its new role in 2011, Mr Merricks will comprehensively oversee a wide public consultation about its procedural rules ; to ethically ensure that all stakeholders are able to participate in the development of how it will operate.
Walter Merricks has been Chief Ombudsman at the Financial Ombudsman Service since 1999. He has been chairman of the British and Irish Ombudsman Association (BIOA) and a member of the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority, where he briefly acted as interim chair in 2007-08.
Further Public Statements on this issue will additionally be made (by Doctor Joseph Obi) ; over the next few weeks or so.
Medical Council Regulatory Remodernization : Fundamental Strategic Element [ 5 ] : The Role of the Medical Council Opposition Leader
" The Fundamental Political Role of the Medical Council (or Medical Board) Opposition Leader is to Ethically Amplify significant amounts of Grassroots Democratic Power ; with the Ultimate Professional Aim of Eclectically Optimizing (Top-Level) Positive Regulatory Policies.
Any other roles are Purely Discretionary. "

Medical Council Regulatory Remodernization : Fundamental Strategic Element [ 4 ] : Separation of Powers
"Every Statutory Medical Council or Medical Regulatory Board (wherever it may be in the world) must unfailingly ensure that all of It's Core Adjudication Functions have already been comprehensively transferred to an Independent External Body ; (most especially) BEFORE it either commences or conducts or executes any Statutory Regulatory Investigations (whatsoever)."

PRESS STATEMENT
This is to make it abundantly clear that GMC Opposition Leader , Dr Joseph Obi , will not be entertaining any requests whatsoever to serve as an Honourable Minister in this Current Cabinet Government of UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown ; most especially in the wake of the highly predicted exit of Lord Ara Darzi.

" I have said this very many times before . . . and I will boldly say it again .
In my exceedingly humble regulatory opinion ; all UK Medical Doctors must urgently seek Independent Legal Advice before foolishly signing away the bulk of their Professional Practising Rights ; under the New General Medical Council Licensing Scheme.
Please also fundamentally note that there is currently More Than Enough Legal Evidence to Summarily Halt the whole Damn GMC Licensing Process Altogether ; via an Extremely Thorough ECJ (European Court of Justice) Assessment of the Totally Disgraceful Amended Medical Act of the United Kingdom .
Do not be Deceived (or Swayed or Hood-winked) by the GMC's Utterly Shameless Bunch of High Profile Doctors ; as almost all of them have already Selfishly Bartered their Support for Rabid GMC Policy in Sordid Exchange for Lifelong (Behind-the-Scenes) Immunity from GMC Investigations.
Once you foolishly sign up for the GMC Practising License , you must henceforth be perpetually prepared to rightfully lose many Future Court Cases relating to the General Medical Council's Stalinist Discretionary Powers in all key areas relating to your Professional Medical Career.
If you have not fully read the Current Version of Medical Act of the United Kingdom , then please kindly do so - Without Delay .
Posterity will never ever forgive you if you spinelessly fail to Comprehensively Reject the GMC License Now . . . "

General Medical Council Opposition Leader and MLC Boss Medical Licensing Commission (MLC) , Professor Joseph Chikelue Obi , has privately disclosed that the International Clinical License for Qualified Medical Graduates will still not follow an Annual Subscription Format.
Commenting during a brief phone conversation, the exceedingly jovial Professor Obi said :
" The International Clinical License will be issued on a One-Off (Fifty Year) Subscription Basis .
There will be a Simple 2-Tier Licensing System . . . Specialist and Generalist.
Those who have already completed their RCAM Fellowship Appraisal will remain on the Specialist Register - while all New Applicants will be admitted as Generalists.
Any Generalist can either happily remain at that level - or ethically upgrade to the Status of Specialist subject to Prevailing Specialist Appraisal Criteria and all of the Associated Upgrade Fees.
All Applicants will get expediently their 50 Year Clinical License right from the onset ; and this Clinical License will be lawfully used to obtain Appropriate Annual Professional Indemnity Cover from our Statutory Insurance Provider.
Those who economically wait till they have already been suspended before coming to us will have to pay a (Massive) Additional Discretionary Fee . . . So it is best that everyone applies early - as the cost of entry onto our Generalist Register for a 50 Year Period is set to be far much less than the annual regulatory cost of being a GMC Licensed (and Registered) Medical Practitioner . . . Yet the ultimate professional benefits of the International Clinical License could be absolutely amazing indeed . . . "
The latest batch of International Clinical Licenses (for Qualified Medical Graduates) has since been duly sent out to those UK Doctors who are totally dissatisfied with the {Monstrous} General Medical Council (GMC).
Chief Regulator of then Medical Licensing Commission , Professor Joseph Obi , is currently ardently attending to the next huge batch ; which will hopefully be formalized before he proceeds on Extended Summer Holiday.
Professor Joseph Chikelue Obi would like to warmly thank all those who have defiantly chosen to Stick Two Very Fat Fingers Up To The Obliviously Racist (and Morbidly Corrupt) General Medical Council.
Further details will be made available shortly.
" In my exceedingly humble professional opinion; the Newly Appointed Chairman of the General Medical Council , Professor Peter Rubin , does undoubtedly have the Fundamental Eclectic Potential to possibly become one of the Greatest GMC Presiding Officers of all time.
. . . My only grave concern is whether he innately possesses the Profound Regulatory Guts to judiciously read the writing on the wall ; and comprehensively dismantle the Crucible of Corruption which has been shamelessly holding back True Progress at the GMC . . .
Although almost all GMC Presidential Careers have ultimately ended in some sort of Failure or another ; I very fervently pray that Peter Rubin maverickly bucks that Nasty Trend and formidably goes on to do this Great Nation proud."

General Medical Council Opposition Leader
General Medical Council Opposition Leader , Dr Joseph Chikelue Obi , has maverickly brushed aside recent attempts to discredit him based on Politically-Sponsored News Articles.
Speaking in Belfast where he is currently enjoying a wonderful week Dr Obi said : " When I was told that the General Medical Council had recruited a Team of 5000 (Five Thousand) Idle Bloggers to widely disseminate rubbish about me 24 hours a day , ( every single day of the year ) , I heartily chuckled and said OK . . . Let's wait and see precisely what they will say . . . (Because in my view , it is a perfectly Good Military Tactic to sit back and watch them all come creeping out of the woodwork , so that I know precisely what their capabilities are). They Googled . They Wriggled. They Spat. They Cursed . . . and They Left. Now , after carefully surveying almost everything which they have incompetently written , the bottom-line is that they have sadly just wasted their time - and gloriously thrown away over one million dollars (worth) of Search-Engine-Optimization (SEO) Cash.
So they came all creeping out like Filthy Little Vermin . . . All 5000 of them.
These Racists have woefully achieved nothing . . . absolutely nothing indeed . "

" Christmas is one of the most important times of the year.
For many of us , it is an absolutely perfect time to comprehensively reflect upon whatever the Christian Faith actually means ; while for others it is simply a very good opportunity to compassionately relax with Friends , Foes and Family.
One of the greatest strengths of GMC Abolition Campaign is the ground-breaking manner in which our humble movement has ethically leveraged an exceeedingly wide range of issues from very many different sectors ; while still formidably maintaining our Fundamental Political Ethos as an Anti-Discrimination Network.
Christmas is a time for communities to lovingly come together, to give and to share and to be at peace ; a time to build the kind of respect for each other which ultimately helps us to be stronger.
My affectionate hope for 2009 is that a tinsy winsy little bit of the profound goodwill and mutual respect which we all enjoy at Christmas will eclectically last (at least in part) ; all year round and possibly beyond .
Merry Christmas , Everybody . . . and Happy New Year."
Professor Joseph Chikelue Obi
Leader of Opposition against the General Medical Council
Chief Regulator of the Medical Licensing Commission (MLC)
Undisputed Leader of Opposition against the General Medical Council and Chief Regulator of the Medical Licensing Commission (MLC), Professor Joseph Chikelue Obi , has dropped exceedingly subtle hints as to what his Political Modus Operandi will be as from the year 2009 onwards.
Speaking in response to direct questions posed during a Private Luncheon Party , a totally relaxed Professor Obi said :
" Over the past few years we have been loudly alerting UK Doctors to the profound dangers relating to the General Medical Council (GMC) and it's Abusive Regulatory Powers.
As things currently stand, hundreds of UK Doctors are now being unfairly deprived of their livelihoods every single month.
This is exceedingly interesting news for the Medical Licensing Commission ; as the General Medical Council Racism now seems to be indirectly recruiting Embattled Medical Doctors for the Medical Licensing Commission . . . on an exceedingly grand scale indeed. "
Firebrand Black British Human Rights Campaigner , Joseph Obi , has staunchly defended his public criticism of Archbishop John Sentamu over his recent attitude towards the lawfully re-elected Zimbabwean President , Dr Robert Mugabe.
Speaking during a Private Discussion on Global Affairs , Professor Obi categorically said :
" John Sentamu always takes pride in boasting that he was a former political dissident in Uganda during the time of Field Marshall Idi Amin.
But what the Infallible Mr Sentamu will not tell you is that he was formally detained (and affectionately kicked around like a football) for only a few months , in a relatively comfortable prison cell , before gleefully being allowed to gracefully hop onto the very next flight to the Land of Milk and Honey ; while his fellow Ugandans were alarmingly dying of hunger.
Lord Sentamu never for a single moment , ever went back to Uganda with the view of contesting for high political office for the ultimate betterment of his people.
As far as he seemed to be concerned , Almighty God would formidably take care of all those whom he left behind in Africa - while the UK Taxpayer would lavishly take care of him.
Sentamu never took up arms in any Freedom Fight at all - and neither did he ever put his own fabulously precious life on the line to defiantly ensure that due Justice was ever done.
John Sentamu was not a grade one dissident (of any kind whatsoever) : He was (principally) just a self-serving, Junior Ranking Ugandan High Court Judge who was never seen to be a threat to Idi Amin ; otherwise Idi would have definitely made an exceptionally palatable dish out of him - and publicly chewed on his flesh for almost everybody to see.
Robert Mugabe however , patriotically chose never to cowardly abandon his Noble Country , and painfully spent 10 (ten) whole years in prison (without Trial) during White Minority Rule , at the peak of the Rhodesian Liberation Struggles ; and even sorrowfully lost his beloved son during that very same extended racist incarceration in question.
But the ungrateful Bishop Sentamu will hardly ever mention this ; even though he knows (fully well) that it was Mugabe's Landmark Rhodesian Struggle which sensationally paved the way for better democracy in Uganda , Zambia , Tanzania , Ghana ,Botswana , South Africa , Kenya, Nigeria and almost every other African Nation at large.
Under Mugabe, Zimbabwe was indeed the ultimate bread-basket of Africa, and he never ever turned his Fellow African Brethren (including Ugandans like Sentamu) away in times of need ; despite exceedingly challenging circumstances.
To put it bluntly : Robert Mugabe almost single-handedly gave firm strategic direction during the Armed Freedom Fight for Zimbabwe against it's Shameless Colonial Masters ; and (for a very long time) was also eclectically reponsible for an exceedingly wide range of support to almost every African Nation throughout the Continent.
It was only when Mugabe initiated the Land Redistribution Programme (to get back some of the land which the Colonialists STOLE from ordinary Zimbabweans) that the Western Nations finally made up their minds to ruthlessly get rid of him ; even if it meant callously starving millions of poor Zimbabweans to death in the process , via Economic Strangulation.
My message to Lord Archbishop Dr John Sentamu is therefore very pure and simple : Bringing down Mugabe will certainly not save Zimbabwe - and neither will a shoddy little gesture of snipping one's Luxuriously Starched Dog Collar into bits on International Television.
If anything, the Sentamu Dog Collar Stunt reveals Mr Sentamu to be nothing short of a Latter Day Mary Antoinette of 'Let them eat Cake' fame ; as his endearing political message now seems to be some sort of : 'Let them eat Dog Collar'.
What Zimbabweans really (really) need right now is massive humanitarian aid, and the only way to urgently get that aid directly to the Poor Citizens is by duly according the Mugabe Regime with it's appropriate respect ; even if it means diplomatically swallowing one's foul-tasting spittle - or painfully holding one's stinking nose in the process.
Afterall , Sentamu Dog Collar will not feed , clothe , educate , employ or house the very poor people of Zimbabwe - and neither will Sentamu Dog Collar miraculously save any single one of them from Cholera , Malaria , Tuberculosis or HIV/AIDS . . . "
Controversial Black British Human Rights Activist , Joseph Obi , has publicly criticized Archbishop John Sentamu over his recent attitude towards the lawfully re-elected Zimbabwean President , Dr Robert Mugabe.
Speaking at yet another Private Round Table Discussion on African Affairs , Professor Obi bluntly stated :
" Archbishop John Sentamu may very well wish to (kindly) go sit down and carefully perfect his Sudoku Skills or something.
He is not any better than Robert Mugabe - in my very own opinion.
Where has Dr Sentamu been all this while when the General Medical Council (GMC) has been criminally harassing Ethnic Minority Doctors in the United Kingdom ; and forcing many of them to an early grave ?
Where was Mister Sentamu when these Poor Ethnic Minority Doctors were consistently committing suicide as a direct result of Atrociously Racist GMC Policies ?
Was Sentamu gracefully waltzing around in his Palatial Archbishop's Mansion in York - greedily scoffing down Sunday Turkey and Cranberry Sauce - without even caring a bloody damn about what was callously going on under his very own UK Nostrils ?
Anyway , today is not the day to attack a Man of the Cloth .
I would have said far much more on Lord Sentamu , but as the African Union has already (and rightfully) comprehensively ignored Reverend Sentamu altogether (in favour of my very own Zimbabwe Resolution Proposal ) , I warmly leave the matter in the Hands of Almighty God . . . especially now that Sentamu’s call for a Mugabe Ouster has (since) dramatically backfired.
In the interim , May the Good Lord Jesus appropriately unbridle the GMC-Harnessed Tongue of Showman John Sentamu ; as and when is spiritually deemed fit . "
Celebrity Alternative Medicine Guru and Wellness FM Judge , Professor Joseph Chikelue Obi , has publicly endorsed Councilman Charles Barron as the next Brooklyn Borough President .
Speaking during a recent Civil Liberties Event, Professor Obi said :
" Charles Barron is definitely one of the very few Formidable Black American Politicians in the State of New York , who fundamentally has precisely what it takes to eclectically move the whole of Brooklyn Borough progressively forward.
I therefore warmly wish Councilman Barron all of the very (very) best in the upcoming Brooklyn Presidential Elections . . . "
Controversial Black British Human Rights Activist , Joseph Obi , has publicly defended the recently re-elected Zimbabwean President , Dr Robert Mugabe.
Speaking at yet another Private Round Table Discussion on African Affairs , the eclectic Professor Obi bluntly re-iterated :
" It is already on due public record that His Excellency Dr Robert Gabriel Mugabe successfully contested the Zimbabwean Presidential Elections . . . and was duly declared to be the lawful winner of the said 2008 Presidential Election by the Statutorily Competent Zimbabwean Electoral Commission (ZEC) . . . in addition to having also being formally sworn in by the Lord Chief Justice of Zimbabwe (with all of the Supreme Court Justices and Defence Chiefs in tow).
Shocking though these comments may seem , there is actually precious little that anyone out there can really do about it ,(short of either an Assassination or an Invasion or both) ; as Zimbabwe still remains a Sovereign National State in it's very own right.
What Zimbabwe really needs to do right now is widely open it's Doors to Charitable Organizations and defiantly tell Prime Minister Gordon Brown (of the UK) to mind his own bloody business, while Africa seriously tries to resolve the problem just like the AU recently did (under very similar circumstances) in Kenya.
Dr Gordon Brown was never ever elected to be British Prime Minister via any general election in the UK , and he never ever even had the bleeding guts to honourably hold a general election once it dawned upon him that he would most probably lose it !
So what moral right does Gordon Brown now have to challenge the legitimacy of Robert Mugabe on the election issue ?"
When asked how precisely he would solve the problem , Professor Joseph Obi essentially churned out his previous statement on the matter:
"I have never (ever) been comfortable with the idea of Robert Mugabe being the Omnipotent Executive (Presidential) Head of State. Zimbabwe (former Rhodesia) has historically had both a Prime Minister and a Head of State.
My previously publicized solution to this whole wretched quagmire has already been duly implemented ; and essentially involved bringing back the post of Prime Minister of Zimbabwe , and warmly offering it to Morgan Tsvangirai of the MDC - whose political party decisively won the Parliamentary Elections , as officially declared by the ZEC.
My aforementioned plan also allowed Dr Robert Mugabe - who decisively won the Zimbabwean Presidential Elections (as officially declared by the ZEC) to remain as Titular Head of State ; up until the hallowed time when he gracefully gives up the Ghost (which I can assure you will probably not be as long as you think).
My solution also demanded that George W Bush , Gordon Brown and all of the other nosey little busybodies (outside Zimbabwe) should kindly concentrate on the Huge Poverty (and Destitution) in their very own countries - without endlessly meddling in Zimbabwe's Internal Affairs.
An important additionally updated inclusion to the plan specifically relates to the award of Massive Financial (and Administrative) Concessions to those Charitable Organizations which are independently (and ethically) assisting Zimbabwe with various Agricultural Projects , Sanitation (Sewage) Issues , Safe Drinking Water Initiatives , Basic Education Strategies , Micro-Credit Facilities , Public Health Programmes and Medical Services - most especially at the Local (Grassroots) Level.
All that it will maverickly take (in this particular case) to independently oversee this exceptionally difficult time is a Firebrand (Top Level) African Union Mediation Commission made up of Winnie Mandela (of South Africa) , Ibrahim Babangida (of Nigeria) together with Jerry Rawlings (of Ghana) - and the whole Zimbabwean Election Problem will be amicably resolved long before you know it . . . so that ordinary Zimbabweans (out on the streets) will at least be able to afford bread , butter, milk , rice and fish - while all outstanding matters are carefully being ironed out by the Seasoned Mediators.
Africa is more than competent enough to expediently solve it's very own regional problems (Thank you very much). "
Formidable Leader of Opposition against the General Medical Council , Professor Joseph Obi , has (once again) bluntly refused to make a Comprehensive Public Statement on the New General Medical Council , (this time postponing comments) till sometime next year .
Speaking in reply to requests for a formal response to the (long overdue) matter , Professor Obi said :
" As I have previously stated , there is absolutely no hurry (whatsover) to even remotely entertain any queries in relation to the so-called New GMC . . . For I am reliably informed that many of the so-called New GMC Council Members have actually been on the GMC Payroll during varying past (and present) periods , delightfully spanning over the past few decades or so.
As such , it would be totally inappropriate to describe such a Comprehensively Recycled Bunch of Exceedingly Interesting Characters as being (anywhere near) New , in the very first place. "
Undisputed Leader of Political Opposition against the General Medical Council and Chief Regulator of the Medical Licensing Commission (MLC) , Professor Joseph Chikelue Obi, has (once again) jokingly played down rumours that he is fast becoming some sort of Latter Day Maverick Medical Anarchist.
Commenting on further General Medical Council Insinuations that he is rapidly instigating an Indelible Professional Schism within the Global Medical Fraternity, a widely grinning Professor Obi firmly responded :
" I've said it countless many times before - and I'll robustly say it again.
Go do an Extended Google Search for Joseph Chikelue Obi and read it all for yourself.
There are very few Qualified Medical Doctors (on this blessed planet) who have successfully survived even one tenth of what I have boldly had to put up with , over the past decade or so . . . But even that does not summarily elevate me to the status of some sort of Latter Day Regulatory Maverick or Medical Messiah.
I'm a Survivor . . . Not a Saint . . . and there is very little more to say about it . . ."
An Extremely Worried Member of Staff at the General Medical Council has officially confirmed that Leader of Opposition against the General Medical Council and Chief Regulator of the Medical Licensing Commission (MLC) , Doctor Joseph Chikelue Obi, has formally advised the General Medical Council , that further Landmark Employment Tribunal Claims will soon start surfacing in Northern Ireland.
The Northern Ireland Claims are said totally different from those already going on in London ( see Dr Joseph Chikelue Obi v General Medical Council ) ; as Northern Ireland has it's very own Legal System
Further details coming soon . . .
Exceptionally Controversial General Medical Council Opposition Leader and MLC Boss Medical Licensing Commission (MLC) , Doctor Joseph Chikelue Obi , has (once again) sensationally thrashed yet more agents of the General Medical Council ; who recently failed in their bid to block his private acquisition of a Luxury Penthouse Studio.
Commenting on the exponential rise in his global popularity , (despite a heavily financed online campaign to discredit him) , an extremely jovial Professor Obi calmly averred :
" I have gradually come to learn that there is ultimately no such thing as negative publicity.
In exceedingly capable hands, adverse publicity could actually yield a highly lucrative shower of absolutely fabulous benefits indeed.
For instance , if I want to bulldoze my way into almost any Company Boardroom (on the Planet) these days , all that I really need to do is politely mention the phrase Joseph Chikelue Obi and boldly ask them to Google Me.
By the time that they swiftly begin to rummage through all of the Morbid Internet Trash which is constantly being written about me , a positive smile gradually starts appearing on their faces . . . while the word Sir rapidly starts appearing after every single sentence , nod and bow.
Before you know it , Hitherto Closed Doors suddenly start flying open . . . and previously unaccessible Corporate Presidents (and CEO's) mysteriously begin to have a Quite a Few Spare Minutes of Talk-Time on offer.
So , being the Undisputed Hardman of the Medical World does undoubtedly still have it's wee little perks .
I therefore sincerely wish (and pray) that my extremely bitter enemies (hopefully) live long enough to see me innocently enjoy the precious little fruits of their very own labour !"
Leader of Opposition against the General Medical Council and Chief Regulator of the Medical Licensing Commission (MLC) , Doctor Joseph Obi, has publicly confirmed that the brand new DR(AM) Prefix Title will additionally be made fully available to those Medical Graduates who do not hold Registration with either the General Medical Council , or any other Statutory Medical Licensing Bodies .
Responding to multiple questions in relation to DR(AM) - the Brand New Alternative Medicine Prefix Title ,Professor Obi categorically stated :
"If GMC President Graeme Robertson Dawson Catto can easily get away with technically killing a patient and deliberately falsifying a massive bundle of NHS Casenotes thereof (to elegantly cover up his fiendish little tracks from both the Police and the Coroner) ; then I see absolutely no reason why Suspended , Struck-Off , and Unregistered Medical Doctors should not be given the ethical opportunity to lawfully avail of the DR(AM) Designation - subject to current DR(AM) Criteria.
The beauty of the DR(AM) Initiative is that it can rapidly be acquired in record time , thus enabling almost any Qualified Medical Graduate to lawfully set up his (or her) very own Private (Alternative Medicine) Clinic ; within 14 Working Days of completion of all of the necessary formalities.
Whatever your Embattled Medical Background ,the DR(AM) Initiative can swiftly (and legally) help you profitably find your feet again ; provided that you act quickly.
Apply Early - to avoid having to pay a huge amount in 2009 . . ."
Controversial General Medical Council Opposition Leader and MLC Boss Medical Licensing Commission (MLC) , Dr Joseph Obi , has publicly backed Senator Hillary Clinton for the post of United States Secretary of State.
Reacting to News that US President Barack Obama is seriously considering her for the Top Diplomatic Job, Professor Obi said:
"President Obama's fabulous choice of Senator Hillary Clinton for the post of United States (U.S) Secretary of State will eclectically energize American Foreign Policy as a whole ; and I warmly look forward to ethically witnessing a brand new dawn in International Diplomatic Relations ; most especially between the United States of America and the rest of the world at large. "
A dejected member of Staff at the General Medical Council has duly confirmed that Leader of Opposition against the General Medical Council and Chief Regulator of the Medical Licensing Commission (MLC) , Dr Joseph Obi, has comprehensively won the first round against the General Medical Council , after the GMC dramatically failed to strike out his Landmark Employment Tribunal Claim.
At the time of this exceedingly brief report , the exceedingly busy Legal Team of Professor Joseph Obi bluntly refused to comment on the issue.
Additional Updates are coming soon.
