Men can fall my hand sha..

Perv alert!!! That her son is in serious danger.

hehe

thepathologist: Nigerians want surgeon-general of public health. Usa has four surgeon-general(navy,army,air force and public health). Pls, let us get info before writing.

U never stop saying trash. US has only 1 SGF.

stefikal: Primary school:

I had no idea what love was or the definition of the word 'crush'. But if it had anything to do with me putting up my best behaviour whenever he was around, then I practically fell victim to the word.

I clinged to his twin sister so he could get to notice me, he moved with the big bad boys and I was simply an innocent little girl to him.

I put a smile whenever Emmanuel came close by perhaps he would eventually say hi.
My final year in primary school was nice since he was already my friend but I found it strange that the crush I once had on him had mysteriously disappeared.

JSS3:

Why would they always frolick around him? They flirted with him, he flirted back. Annoyance and jealousy had become my best friend whenever I saw him with them.

He was the class captain, I simply added to the number of geeks we had in class, my stay in JSS3 was fun but each time I saw Chibueze treating me like a sister whereas he gave the prostitutes attention my heart received a slap.

The last time I saw him was months after I left secondary school, and my heart still did a little backflip as I spoke with him.

A flip whose sound had drastically reduced.

SS classes:

The problem with being a bookworm, the guys see you as a friend but not as a potential lover.

My hormones found guys with high intelligence attractive, add that to their charming attitude.
The names so numerous I guess I was a hormone-crazed teenager, I never told any of them.

I simply lived in the luxury of painting them as my boyfriend in my daydreams.
Silas, Ekene, Otunla, Paul, they were fantastic actors in the movie scripts my teenage head produced.

It was fun while it lasted though

JAMB class:

My longest crush ever (over a year), I won't mention his name
But a mere handshake got my knees weak, twas that bad.

He smiled in my direction and common sense left my actions.
He asked me a question and I stammered while struggling to provide an answer.

My crush on him died the day I discovered who his girlfriend was. But we are still good friends today

University:

The crush is still there and he talks to me like he cares but I'm scared his heart is taken.



P.S: I choose to use 'crush' on purpose so make una no crucify me.
And I added the JAMB class and University because toilet seat inspiration refused to stop

Steph.. My own NL crush.

Let....me...sign...on....this... thread.

Nuf said on this issue. JOHESU's meeting at the pharmacy house on Monday and I'll get back to you.

To further prove this point, a
Pharmacist is the current Deputy Surgeon
General by name, Rear Admiral Scott F.
Gibberson, and should the current SG resigns
or exit under any circumstance; Gibberson, a
Pharmacist will take over the hallowed position.
The system we wish to copy must be copied
completely with the position made open to all
medical workers.

This part made me laugh. As I said on d oda thread SGF is not an exclusive doctor thing, that's one. Two, we don't need it now. Other things needs to be put in place. Most importantly is harmony btw healthcare professionals, this is priceless. SGF won't work now as much as it's a good idea. My 5 cents pere.

Glad to see he actually didn't kill himself..

drnoel: clearly shows the physiotherapist don´t even know what they are fighting against. I don´t see how the office of the surgeon general can affect or enslave their activities. The surgeon general´s office can´t restrict their activities, neither can that office ban their organisation from functioning.

Neither, u don't know what u're fighting for! How will SGF solve the problem facing the health sector. Moreover I found out SGF myt not necessarily be a surgeon. Then not only doctors work there, its a public health thing, even a biochemist could be there. Correct me plsss, aw would it solve our problems in d health sector?

So the best thing to do is to come to NL to show ur frustration just because it was a tecno. Another reason I'm sure u opened this thread is FP. U got what u deserved sir. Computer Village myt not be d best place to buy a fone and not av problems wif it. Sorry for the money lost. Fones are sold everywhere as I got mine 16500 from a credible dealer. Pls deal with it, the problem is not peculiar to tecno.. Awon haturz!!

The woman's bosom wouldn't av seen the next day if it were me.

Well I don't av anything against the SGF office. It myt be needful but it's not the most important thing to do. The doctors are playing politics with this. That's the reason I think JOHESU will slug it off with them. Government now needs to sit with all the parties involved and arrive at a consensus. My 50 cent.

trials
NICOSAN™ is
a non-toxic,
Phyto-
pharmaceutical, product for the treatment of
Sickle Cell Disease (SCD). NicosanTM is

useful in preventing painful crisis
experienced by SCD patients.
3. It reduces hypoxic stress experienced by
SCD patients (due to trapping of sickle cell
in lungs), drastically.
4. It removes the incidence of blood
transfusion in SCD PATIENTS.

choice for the management of sickle cell
disease (SCD).
WARNING
Keep out of reach of the children don't
exceed the stated dose.

Good to know NICOSAN is out there after months of problems. The drug was developed solely by NIPRD(National institute for pharmaceutical research and development). Since early last year or so, issues with bulk manufacturing, licensing and distribution av surfaced. I can assure you those issues will be put aside soon.

Plsssssss Don't plssssss.. Do u av a certificate? Or any degree u can use to work. The saddest part is.. When ur breakthrough is around the corner, that's when d poverty will get to ur neck and u feel like ending ur life. If u kill urself, brother there's no hope.. It's straight to hell.. U won't even see the God u're blaming for putting u in a bias world. Moreover Yoruba says 'Akunleyan ni akunlegba, a de aiye tan. Oju nkan gbogbo wa'.

Just don't!!!

True! I can't money on ur list.

Naija babes, nice smile, well groomed, too much style, funny, shows care and all. Even if you can take her on a trip to heaven. If the money factor is absent, my guy she'll port.

Why network providers dey do us like this?? 1gb this days seems to be more valuable than gold, or so they made it look like. Biko make dem reason our matter.

doc sholz: JOHESU go soon join, when they do I hope Jonathan will ask them how surgeon general affects them or if they want pharmacist-general....... bunch of clowns

There are loads of pending issue Shola I suppose. This is definitely not what we need now. Goan read about the SGF office in the US. Wise thinking doctors would av demanded that budget allocation to the health sector be increased, we'd all support them, trust me. Adequate infrastructure should also be on the table and a lot more. Buh what av we? SGF *spits*

Bertivogt: listen to yourself young man..so strikes are now being compared! What has this country turned you into

Reread ops post.

Obinoscopy: In the US, the Surgeon General reports to the Assistant Secretary for Health (Nigeria's equivalent for Minister of State for Health). So I think the bolded is wrong.

In other countries, the Surgeon General is simply a senior ranking medical officer within the military. So I wonder why the Doctors are clamoring for this?

This!!!

So its just a public health thing. How does this solve our health problems? The dilapidated hospitals, dead primary care system, brain drain on the doctor side?? E fi ete sile, e lo npa lakpalapka, smh.

What Does the Surgeon General of the
United States Do?
By Trisha Torrey
Question: What Does the Surgeon General of the
United States Do?
The Surgeon General holds the highest public
health position in the federal government of the
United States. But few of us know what the
Surgeon General does, or what his or her
responsibilities are. What does the Surgeon
General do? And how does it affect American
citizens?
Answer:
The Surgeon General of the United States is
appointed by the President, approved by the
Senate, and oversees all public health initiatives
and programs for American citizens that involve
the federal government's money. His or her
visibility stems from responsibilities as a
spokesperson for the federal government,
representing its views on public health policy and
initiatives.
To support these activities, the Surgeon General
commands the 6400+ officers of the
Commissioned Corps of the US Public Health
Service (USPHS.) As one of the Nation's seven
uniformed services (US Army, US Navy, US Air
Force, US Marines, US Coast Guard, NOAA Corps,
US Public Health Service), the Commissioned
Corps fulfills its mission to protect, promote and
advance the health and safety of the Nation.
Public health initiatives are things like smoking
cessation, reducing obesity including childhood
obesity, promoting vaccinations, or any programs
that involve the health of the citizenry of the
country.
Officers of the USPHS are assigned to agencies of
the Department of Health and Human Services
such as the NIH, CDC, or FDA, as well other
Federal agencies such as the Department of
Defense or Homeland Security, plus state
governments and others. When not performing in
their day-to-day duty assignments, officers of the
USPHS are called upon the respond to national
emergencies, natural disasters and other public
health crises, including international humanitarian
assistance.
It would seem as if most of the topics
encompassed by public health and the Surgeon
General would be very non-controversial. We all
want improved health and safety! However, it turns
out there have been many Surgeon General
controversies in recent history:

Patient Empowerment
Dr. C. Everett Koop took on the tobacco industry
and AIDS beginning in the 1980s. Both stirred
up a great deal of controversy, as did his
previous writings about abortion.
Dr. Antonia Novello was the first woman
appointed to the post, in 1990. She took on a
number of initiatives including whether abortion
could be discussed as an option to pregnant
women, plus illegal underage drinking and
smoking.
In 2006, Dr. Richard Carmona left the post of
Surgeon General highly critical of George Bush's
administration, accusing him of suppressing
research findings if they conflicted with Bush's
political and ideological agenda .

Found something.

With President Obama's
nomination of Dr. Regina
Benjamin, a primary care
physician from Alabama, as
the next Surgeon General of
the United States, it seems
like a good time to take a
look at what the Surgeon
General's role is in
healthcare.
It may surprise you to know that often the Surgeon
General isn't even a surgeon!
The Surgeon General of the United States leads the
US Public Health Corps to oversee public health
initiatives that will affect American citizens. His or
her office interfaces with a dozen other health-
related government offices and agencies.
Public health initiatives include smoking cessation,
combating obesity, encouraging vaccinations and
more.
The current Surgeon General is in an "acting"
position. Rear Admiral and Doctor Steven Galson
has been serving in that capacity since October
2007. President Obama is ready to replace Dr.
Galson, who was appointed by President George
Bush. Thus his nomination of Dr. Benjamin.
It might seem as if such a position would be non-
controversial. But that is far from the truth. After
all, we all want the public to be healthy! But in the
past 30 years there have been several instances of
disagreement and dissention between the Surgeon
General and both the President and the citizenry.
With the appointment of Dr. Regina Benjamin, it
would seem President Obama is hoping to allay
controversy. Dr. Benjamin seems to have a worthy
history of advocating for those who need help.
Now we'll have to see what the Senate thinks.

dBard: It seems it's a move by the Drs to checkmate d demands by the Joint Health Union (JOHETSU) for control and greater representation at health care boards breaking d age old tradition of Doctors bin d head of every medical institution.
The Surgeon-General overseeing d public health system effectively negates that possibility..i.m.o

UKD!!! But there are more strings attached.. Les ask brother Google

dBard: Please do explain to us wat u mean by Unnecessary Lordship ?
Am sure so many peeps here would like t know as well

Only a doctor can be cmd of a hospital, only a doctor can be minister of health, doctor is DG of NAFDAC. It was just last November a pharmacist was appointed into one of the boards in the ministry of health after much said. It was all a doctor thing.

phantom: way to go ! This is what our health system needs.there is an attorney general, accountant general, surveyor general e.t.c ...a surgeon general will solely cater to the needs of doctors.it frees us the position of 'health minister' so any of the other health workers can attain it since they want kill themselves over it.

Cater for the needs of the doctors? What's NMA for? What's MDCN for? Les see how it plays out. I'm only expecting the reaction of the pharmacists and nurses. The movie is still long ooo.
Are u tryna say this office is the reason for the continual unnecessary lordship of doctors over the health sector? Adongerrit!

Moreover, u'd like to explain how the surgeon-general office benefits Nigerians.

Acidosis: wow.. Nice one...!!




What of Pharmacist-General and Nurse-General?

I taya oo.

Next thing, Dr Aribisala becomes surgeon general office of the federation. Cool way to siphon.
