Politics / Re: Peter Obi Wins In Lagos, Beats Bola Tinubu by DrTony1(m): 1:05pm On Feb 27, 2023
Yamiriflathead:
grin
Although disappointing
Tinubu tried to hold Lagos with the figures he pulled so far. Lagos is the Capital of Southern Nigeria, so what were you expecting?
This was a fight between ibos+SS+woke yorubas against Tinubu supporters in Lagos who are mainly yorubas and maybe Hausas in Lagos.

I hope Tinubu and yorubas have learnt a bitter lesson from Lagos Elections not to befriend and feed a cub because it is homeless, hopeless, and dying. It will grow up and eat u up someday.

I'm happy yorubas can now sit down and ask qtns as to how they got everything wrong and redress it with BAT as President.

The take home from this defeat is..

Yorubas need to stop drafting non yorubas into the civil service and stop giving them prominent appointments. There are always technocrats who can always fit into any political office from the SW

Yorubas need to stop selling their lands to non yorubas in Lagos and SW

Yorubas need to stop giving out local government of origins to non yorubas in Lagos

Yorubas need to stop allowing non-yorubas contest for Elections in Lagos or SW

Yorubas need limit the numbers of voters registration of non yorubas going on in Lagos, they care so much about Lagos and don't care if their homes rot, Henceforth let them go home and vote. They can't come and dictate to you on how to govern urselves after creating an enabling environment for them to thrive.

Contain them politically, Period!

Congratulations to the incoming President of Nigeria BAT the ASIWAJU of Lagos for winning the most Free and fair Elections since our Nascent Democracy nothwitstanding

If Tribalism was a person that would be you. Shame

The student visa fee is AUD620, with the current exchange rate and charges in naira should be around 240k (+ or -). If you're not comfortable with your agent figure, get a dollar card and fund it then arrange for a time to go and pay.

Please can international students easily work to pay their school fees in these regional areas

Hello guys. You guys have been doing a nice job here.

I have an issue I need help with. I was refused a visitors visa early this year and later reapplied and got the visa to UK. Travelled and came back.

However, I now applied for Visa recently, a Tier 2 Visa and mistakenly ticked NO to the question: Have you ever been denied Visa. It was js an oversight, just realized I didnt see the question well when applying online

I have done biometrics and all. Please how has had experience concerning this scenario. I heard about the ban but does it apply for someone who has gone to the UK and back. Please what is the next step to folllow too


Hello everyone, my kind regards to Legend, justwise, jarus and folmus.

About my mistake in my Tier 2, I later contacted UKVI via email and even called them and Abuja High Commission telling them I made a mistake and also sending my refusal letter.

Good news is, I got the Visa. Thank God almighty for everything. I just wanted to let anyone who made a mistake know you can contact UKVI for correction. in my case I sene emails repeatedly with reminders almost every other day after UKVI rejected my request to withdraw my application twice. Good luck guys

I appreciate all your kind input here cc:Legend, justwise, jarus and folmus and every one else here. Bless you all.

I hope it ends well.
But that the mistake that cause me visa refusal dis week. I was denied Uk visa in Jan 2014 and re apply immediately and I was given which I eventually travel and can back in 2momths.
Fast forward to August 17 2918 I did my Biometric and I answered NO to lyk yours question and I pick up yesterday I was denied.
The ECO quote and said I was denied in 2014 with details and reference number, dat becus of that he's refused to grant me visa.


Thank you very much for this reply @legend. Im sorry for your refusal. It must be quite difficult for you

I spotted the mistake of ticking NO to the question: Have you ever been refused a Visa to the UK, on yesterday being 3 days after biometrics, after numerous consultations I decided to withhdraw the application. I signed a withdrawal proforma at TLS. And the said the process will be completed in 48 hrs


Another question I have now is will I still have a problem after the withdrawal process which might be on the 5th working day after biometrics (I used a standard service).

@Justwise please kindly help me out as I cant afford to be banned. Whats the next step I can take too.

Thank in advance house. Bless you all.

Health / Re: Twins Jessica And Jessilove Oduro Buried by DrTony1(m): 1:57pm On Jul 22, 2016
This is a classical case of Anti cholinesterase Poisoning....
Alot of insecticides contain Anti cholinesterase

Probably Organophosphates group of Anti cholinesterase like Parathion, Malathion seen in most insecticides or Carbamates group of Anti cholinesterase like carbaryl or propuxur(content of Baygon)

Similar Chemicals like Tabun, Sarin, Soman are used as Nerve gases for Chemical Warfare like the one allegedly used in Syria by the Assad regime.

Clinical features of this anti cholinesterase Poisoning include excessive lacrimation(tears), irritation of the eyes, excessive salivation, bronchoconstricton, blurring of vision, fall in B.P, tremors, Convulsions and death

Death is generally due to respiratory failure

RIP to the sisters. People please learn from this.

Health / Re: Synopsis: A Patient Relative's View About Health Professionals In Nigeria by DrTony1(m): 8:52am On Feb 20, 2016
Many times people say many bad things about health professionals in Nigeria especially here on nairaland without being duely informed..truth is no one is perfect even bad things have a good side of it but these parts are never remembered when people see Nigerian doctors. Most people think doctors are God that can save their ward even when most are referred to us terribly mismanaged by herbal medicine dealers & quacks, or when one has a single or multiple organ failure, most times such patients have poor prognosis and eventually die. Several other get well and back on their feet but doctors are never thanked for that. At least this piece comes from an enlightened Patient Relative a writer who sees things from an unbiased view. Not in any saying health professionals are infallible but when you are handicapped with no CT Scan, MRI, or state of the art diagnostic & interventional machines, in a hostile environment with some uninformed patient relatives raining curses, being crude in their attitude to you, And you still save 90% of patients that come your way especially here in Paediatrics FMC Owerri ... I think you ve tried
Well as of this morning the Author's child is currently doing well, made a remarkable improvement of which he is visibly excited about and may be discharged anytime soon.

PLEASE NAIRALAND MODERATORS you can move this piece to the front page so people can add their comments lets see how we as ordinary citizens could improve the quality of health care in Nigeria. Im open to any question.

PLEASE NO INSULTS, ONLY MATURED, INFORMED, REFINED REPLIES & CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM NEEDED.

Thanks
Health / Synopsis: A Patient Relative's View About Health Professionals In Nigeria by DrTony1(m): 8:34am On Feb 20, 2016
A Father whom the baby is my patient being treated here in Federal Medical Centre Owerri, wrote this niece piece yesterday, and as a House Doctor/Officer we spent most our time next to these patients and their relatives, from wee hours of the morning through midnight & early hours of the next morning, House doctors are always there around patients & their relatives so I could really understand how he felt:

Hence the Father wrote thus:

My 6 days stay in the hospital taking care of family, has revealed to me more about the different shades of the individuals found there.

Doctors are at the top of the health chain. They parade the halls like gods. Patients almost worships them.

For their own good, House Doctors/Officers are willing punching bags of their Chiefs. They render great services. Patients admire them, yet wish they be handled by experienced doctors.

Nurses are the Amazons of the Wards, they are too influential and in charge there, barking orders like Drill Sergeants. Patients fear them, only the bold dare fight back.

Pharmacists are unknown and unseen. They are reserved and comfortable in their offices dispensing drugs. Patients have no opinion about them, I am sure no patient remembers a pharmacist's face.

Lab Scientists hate their jobs, they feel banished like Hades, always complaining how wrong specimens were packaged. Patients think they are unimportant for treatments start before results come out.

Orderlies are everywhere in their blues. They are a helpful lot. Patients harbour unkind thoughts about them and they are confused about their designation. They are seen as folks that will never be true Nurses.

Administrators are needed but bad ambassadors. They give hospitals bad name. Care givers regard them as slow, uncivil, rude and the reason for human traffic jam.

Morgue attendants are suspected to be in existence but nobody wants evidence of that. Those who know what they do and what happens there have forever sealed their lips bound by unknown oaths. Everyone thinks they must be ghostly and magical to do such jobs.

Student Nurses are pretty girls and they do what pretty girls do, which is to spread a breath of fresh air. Patients see them as nothing but students.

Patients are in their varieties and degree of cases. Hospitals were designed to solve their problems. Doctors see them as work, House Officers see them as living textbooks, nurses really do care about them despite the initial coldness.

Care givers accompany patients. They are responsible for running errands, payment of bills, and are devoted to the patient. Health workers see them as pestering & stubborn folks who wish the other patient is neglected so their own patient be given attention.

So squeezing n*pples is part of B.E?


Oh YES!!!! an indispensable part of breast examination. Infact it is rightly done in two planes, horizontal & vertical planes. Please people should ask for information before ignorantly blackmailing doctors online and creating unnecessary hate
Health / Re: OMG, How Unprofessional?! Molested By Male Doctor Who Fondled Her Boobs?!! by DrTony1(m): 8:22am On Feb 07, 2016
@OP....
In as much as I wasn't present to know how everything happened between the doctor and the patient. I dont post regularly on this forum because of personal issues but I felt I should clear the air about some few facts for the sake of posterity.

In breasts examination after palpating(gently touching) the four quadrants of each breast and the axillary tail, next thing is to check for express able discharge from the nipple... This is done on two planes, both index fingers are used to gently express the nipple starting from the base of the breast to the nipple done vertically and horizontally and clearly thats what the woman described. I think the doctor only faulted by smiling making the whole process seem unprofessional. But YES expressing the nipple in two planes is part of breast examination. She ought have consulted a second opinion from a doctor to clarify issues rather than openly accusing the doctor.

Its also important to note that there is no such thing as a "Student doctor" its either a medical student or a doctor..... After graduation from medical school because medicine is a highly skilled profession licensed doctors engage i various postgraduate training of which housemanship(internship) is the first year of practice under supervision of a senior doctor for a provisionally licensed doctor to get a permanent license.

I believe I ve cleared the air on some issues.
Thanks

but my problem is dat i easily forget wat i study
thereby makin me to study over and over
again. So i want to ask! If i get the admission Godwilling, is it advisable to use brain booster
to study? cos i knw its not normal
forgetin...maybe medical problem... becus if i
get the admission i would love to get 1st class
or its equivalent in medicine. thanks.
You dont need any brain booster, most of them have bad side effects. Stay away from them totally. With systematic continuous & repeatitive study you ll grab it. Truth is to be a Doctor from UNN doesnt come easy
