You mean he should have been tested and treated in Nigeria like Patience Jonathan did. Or he should have told us he went to rest just like you paymaster's.

You are just a miserable fellow

chiover: hmmm @ your use of the term FLEE as if there is/was war. I remember reading a thread sometime ago where you said that you're a qualified Medical Doctor, may I ask you this question, what exactly do you think is the problem of our health sector, is it incompetent personnels or lack of funds? Please I really want do know your view. There must be a leakage somewhere that forced our leaders into seeking medical attention abroad

[b]Let me butt in for a second..

I believe that the problem with our healthcare system is not limited to one thing.

First and foremost, the number one problem is funding. Funding not just in the sense of Salaries and equipments o!! But also research. Go abroad, you will hear things like Chicago State University Hospital is leading in the research for Breas`t cancer. But nothing like that happens here. Corruption is another issue. You see a medical ward abrod, its well equipped with heart rate monitors, machines and equipments all over, but in Nigeria, a brand new 'state of the art' hospital built by a government has just Beds, I.V stands, bedside cupboards and manual equipments. Something as basic as an X-ray machine sef is not available, talkless of a CT scanner or an MRI machine.

I must commend our doctors who tend to do what I call Blind medecine. They diagonose, treat and medicate patients most times without any electronic help like their counterparts in the states. I'm speaking for the good doctors (which are quite many) here. Ask for the bad eggs amonsgt them, ...

Ask for the Hospital assistants like Nurses and attendants, their problems range from poor training to lack of professional discipline and also zero zeal for their jobs. Thats why you can walk into a hospital and a Nurse would just ignore you and be gisting on the phone or be so uncouth to you.

Cleaners!! This is another matter that should be looked into. First problem I see here is the cutting of cost for the purchase of cleaning materials. Most times, they use these local detergents that destroy the gloss and shimmer of tiles. After 1 year, a hospitals toilets and bathrooms are an eyesore. Secondly, I think the Doctors themselves try to divert money here by contracting individuals to clean the toilets rather than paying a company a bulk some to manage the hospitals sanitation.

Basically, the health sector needs to be overhauled.. NOTHING IS WORKING THERE!! Whenever I'm sick, I dont go near a Government hospital. Not because I dont think they have good doctors o! But because the environment most times is worse than my illnness.

To fix the problems in our health sector, the Government needs to do the following;

1. Fund researches.
2.Build world class hospitals complete with 21st century equipments like CT Scanners, MRI Machines, X-ray Machines, EKG machines, e.t.c
3. Properly train Nurses, attendants and Paramedics.. Not just professionally but also on ethics and manners.
4. Re-training. Every now and again, they should go on courses abroad and locally to better themselves.

Ejiné: Beautiful.
So, na for London hospital im go?

Not enough faith in your state's healthcare, ey?

The same healthcare you had vowed to transform to the pride of the nation during your campaign?

2 years have passed oh. We dey watch you.

Criminal.

Cyberknight: Sadly, this is not the worst, or the funniest part of this affair.
The funniest part of the whole affair is that when he comes back there is going to be a grand public reception for him at public expense. The people of his village will line the roads from the airport in native dress with his picture, apparently jubilating at the safe return of their son and thanking God for confounding the wicked people who apparently wanted him dead.
The people of his LGA and senatorial zone 9Orlu) will do the same. Then the people of Imo State as a whole will be shown on state TV jubilating at his safe return also.

Next, the religious leaders in the state will scramble to hold thanksgiving services praising his "delivery" from death in the accident and his safe return. And of course, there will be countless radio and newspaper ads taken out by "supporters" thanking God that the governor did not die.

There is no reason to wonder why the white man despises us. In any reasonable human being's eyes, a people who are led by fools and buffoons are also fools and buffoons themselves.

daguru: 'London hospital gives Rochas a clean bill of health', commisioner now says 'he wil return when Doctor gives him a clean bill of health', so who be hospital and who be doctor?

Sincere 9gerian: Very shameful report. All those medical details are unnecessary. We do not need to know the state of the governor's nose, anus, eyes,etc. A simple statement like- the governor is in good or very good medical condition- would have been sufficient.

Moreover, all those investigations could have been done in Nigeria. There was no need to flee to London to have a CT scan. These comedies of errors and bad judgement suggests the governor and his aides are CLUELESS.

CHAI!!!

Bros, are you a politician?

Dede1: At least, Ohakin never stage managed a road accident where he could be flown to London in order afford him the avenue to hide the JPROS contract money traced to Lebanon. What is the fate of the occupants of the other vehicles involved in said accident? Imo State peeps are jackasses for being hoodwinked by this street tout called Rochas Okorocha. I met him six months into his term as governor of Imo State and concluded thereafter he is a joker.
