Good day friends. I don't frequent this room much though I see custodians of this room as sacred since they hold on to the health sector.

I went to a beer pallor all of a sudden a young pretty girl showed up with an electronic monitor saying she wants to do a health test for me. I oblidged her not because I trusted because I felt I should help her career. I gave her 100 naira and she said my BP is 108/68. And my pulse 86BPM. She shouted that my BP was low and she needed to give me a drug to normalize it.

I told the lady I don't take drugs without doctors prescription and found she studied geography.
What a shame.

It reminded me of taking my sister to the hospital for pyelonephritis, doctors and medical students used her to move stuff for 2hrs then prescribed ciprotab I could have bought in the chemist.

Doctors are folding their arms while lunatics are taking over their profession and they are going around moving stuff. Doctors must be involved in regulation instead of moving stuff.

Change docs.

Doctor should involve in legislation instead of moving fake stuff. Especially stuff that don't translate into better health service.

Well its jus the situation where we find ourselves in this country.


Im guessing u went to a teaching hospital cos dts where d stuff-moving occurs. Ideally, if primary n secondary healthcare were good enuf like other nations, u wont need to be there.

Legislation like u mentioned hv alot of work to do because some ppl selling herbal drugs n d lady u mentioned wont be spared.
