Leave family, they won't die... Go and hustle.

The one wey die no wan survive before.

Dem no dey solve family problem finish. You need get mind not to look uche face and focus on yourself for now.

It's only when you've saved yourself that you can save others.

So my advice is, MOVE OUT... And be supporting them once once. Maybe just rent or part of it for now. Don't concern so much with their day to day survival. You need some bits of selfishness. Peace!

It's too late. Cos it seems you've been subtly promising to see him instead of giving him emotional excuses that will make him to pity you.

You have to rudely refuse and threaten him at this point and get video or audio evidence. Just now if you post lecturer on social media, the school will be running helter skelter.

Before now, I would have advised her to be very serous with her studies and wise as a serpent around the so called lecturer. When the advances started, she will place him as a father figure. Tell him you're his daughter and looking up to him. If he's relentless, she should also be relentless in giving him emotional excuses. You're taking care of your mother, someone is sick that she staking care of. Church activities. And don't be playing or laughing too much around him. Miss and don't return his calls. Do all his assignments promptly and attend clases. Never visit him at the office alone or spend too much time there. You can offer him alternatives like buy fruit juice and expensive cookies for him to give to his kids. His heart will begin to mellow. Just find a way to escape... Always escape!
It's better you graduate as 'my runaway girlfriend or wife' than for a lecturer to collect his share from you. You won't make good grades still.

ChybuzzDD:
Many commonly used drugs have ototoxicity(ability to cause damage to the ear) as their side/adverse effects, depending on the dosage, duration of intake and the individual's genetic predisposition.

Below are some of the classes of drugs that are ototoxic and their common examples:

*Aminoglycosides(antibiotics): eg Gentamicin, etc

*Macrolides(Antibiotics): eg Erythromycin, etc

*Glycopeptide(Antibiotics): eg Vancomycin, etc

*Antimalarials: eg-Quinine, etc

*Chemotherapeutic Agents(Anti-cancer drugs): eg; Cisplatin, etc

*Analgesics(Painkillers): Aspirin, Ibuprofen, Cataflam(Diclofenac), etc

*Diuretics: eg; Frusemide(Lasix), etc.

This list is not exhaustive.
I suspect he was given either Gentamicin or Vancomycin(antibiotics) during the course of his admission.

So many drugs have deleterious side effects.

Learnt about this tinnitus when I self medicated on ibuprofen for a while due to a severe stiff neck. Hard to stop immediately I started hearing this continuous ringing in my ears. It still come and go but not severe.

Once I had this strange left chest pains, shortness of breathe and completely lost ability to cough or sneeze for over 2 months. I placed on some antibiotics and diclofenac prescribed by a doctor and I was unknowingly taking coffee too. For 3 days in a row, I'll be on my desk at the office and become very dizzy like the whole room turning in my eyes and head while I stay motionless grasping the chair. I was so afraid until a simple Google search saved me. I had to discontinue coffee immediately until I completed my medication. Visited 2 hospitals then, had x-ray and all. And imagine all these happening when I just lost 2 sisters within 3 months. I couldn't tell my family what I was passing through.

Bottomline, always know the drugs you're given and why. Ask and research about the possible side effects too. And avoid self medication by all means.

Doctors have saved and destroyed lots of lives too, like the op and my late sis via wrong blood transfusion. Yet we're stuck with them.

I don't understand Stanbic and their very low rates now. I topped up my account 2 days ago and it's yet to reflect. This their mumulity don dey too much.

Supreme court is the highest entity of the law does not mean you should infiltrate some organizations. Some organizations stands alone and can not be control by external affluence or authority for example CBN. so allow the CBN to work. Mind you my statement is not in support of the CBN or any political party. You should be saying CBN should comply cos in reality they can not be forced else go and read your amendment properly then return back to argue

The supposedly independent institutions where made so by the constitution and a legislative act. The powers to interpret such laws lies with the Supreme Court. And the SC didn't veto the powers of the CBN. But the main thing in the judgement is reasonably long enough time for the currency change. They only interpreted the laws in this case as there's a dispute.

Regardless of the fact that they've been abysmal in various cases, the SC is still the highest authority in interpreting the laws and it's final decision is the law, as well.

shopwiser:
I wonder when all these state Governors turned to CBN Governor. Until CBN issues a statement clearly stating to citizens to accept the old money if you like go and collect the old money, body go tell you. .. that's how bank paid me 5k old money.. and transporters refused to collect it till this moment.

The fact the Governors are persuading to accept the old money shows its not in your interest but their interests cos some of them has the old money stacked in cash and they are trying to inject it back into the economy else they lose it all.

Nigerian Politician's and greed.

If you and your folks are educated you'll know the right thing for everyone to do is to obey the Supreme Court. No further directive from FG or CBN can go against that. They can never come out to say they won't comply.

That's what the banks know and wanted to do. But the rejection of a legal currency by illiterate people who don't know it's even in their rights to not just obey but subtly enforce the law is keeping everyone in this quagmire.

Results from Datti Ahmed, Labour Party VP Candidate’s Polling Unit in Kaduna
PDP - 56,788
APC - 6,886
Labour Party - 564,675
ADC - 278

How many votes did Soludo used to win governorship in Anambra? Dey play

So they won't give them Coke and Pepsi? Make LP dey play. Las las they'll cash out from APCPDP.

PeterObi4LP:
I don't really get why Agbado urchins are showing concern about LP. This election will be use with BVAS and as such, OBIdient who voted in their polling units will ensure the result is transmitted before leaving.

There is no way PDP will allow APC do magomago and there is no way APC will allow PDP do wotowoto. The election all eyes will be on it. It is fight to finish between APC and PDP to keep each other on check, while PO votes remains intact.

After voting you stay some meters away from the polling booth. Only INEC staff and party agents are permitted to inspect and sign of result sheets before they're captured and transmitted.
It's a photo of the certified result sheet that's transmitted.

What's the worth of this scholarship sef... In terms of monthly stipend especially for a family man going to the UK?

DesChyko:
Egungun be careful, nah express you dey go o.

Nah so Suleiman take start; when dem tell am make e bring proof, I never see am again for Twitter until today.

What do you know.

I'm sure you haven't been in any IVM before.

One international company once banned contractors from bringing Innoson trucks their sites for failure to provide, I think, crash tests results. Don't know if Innoson has complied with that now.

Most of the challenges with the new naira notes is the result of our general behavior as Nigerians.

Greed and mumurity (in Wike's voice).

If you read Obi manifestó, you'll see that he's only on track to see through the agreement already signed between FG-Siemens to get power to 25,000 MGW by 2025.
So, Obi isn't offering anything new. The FG power projects, including solar are already in motion.

Kobonaire234:
1.Sorry for your sister's loss

2.A common cause of death in people with leg injury that keeps them immobilized is an 'embolism'

If your sister's leg was kept immobile after the accident, she very likely had a embolus form in the affected leg, which could have travelled to her brain's blood supply denying it of blood, and causing death...or to the lungs, causing pulmonary embolsim, which many times can lead to death (and if someone surivies...na by fire by force we take fight am).

Emboli, or blood clots in the vessels, form due to things like prolonged immobilization .(That's part of why we tell people to exercise regularly).

Here is a case report from another country about a similar death to your sister

It can't be from the blood transfusion...because if your sis had been given the wrong blood group.....there would have been a reaction within 30 minutes...and there are established protocols to deal with it.


(Disclaimer...this is a speculative writeup about a potential cause of your sis' death. Only a full autopsy done by a consultant pathologist can tell us for sure what caused her death.)

Though her femur was broken, she wasn't immobilized apart from they initially trying to use weights to stretch and align the leg. She's already moving with the other leg with assistance. This was someone with no prior crisis nor was she battling for her life. She's already in the theater before they realised there's no enough blood and none in the bank before they hurriedly brought one but the consultant informed them it still won't be enough and moved the suggery by 2 days. The blood was then returned and money refunded.

But the other doc (allegedly on nysc) came to ward and requested for the blood to be brought back to start infusion and my sister started reacting, vibrating immediately. The nurses gave her some injections (MD claimed normal protocol for adverse blood reaction) and reconnected the blood instead of taking it back for proper screening. The whole episode started all over before they disconnected it. And that was the beginning of the end. My sister became very restless as if her heart was burning, shaking and feverish, her bp became very low, crying till she died. No one slept through the night. They began running several tests which all came out negative.
I wish I knew how grave that ill fated transfusion was. Cos I spoke with the MD and her to calm her down 2hrs before she passed. All these happened after we've been told she'll be discharged a week after suggery and she herself was so happy.

This was someone you won't even know was on a sick bed when talking with her on call and video, joking and making both the doctors and people in the ward to laugh. A day to the transfusion she was even asking the family group chat if we should listen to people telling my mum to go native or not but I believed suggery would be the best. We were providing every thing they requested for with speed of light thinking that we're doing the right thing though my strong instinct was to move her to another hospital after like 3 days. Omo naija failed us.

No just take your person go govt or teaching hospital. You go waka waka till you mad. Na my mum dey even carry blood from lab go theater. Smh.

Regardless, I still love naija doctors and I've had cause to visit and still engage with them as usual. But don't expect same treatment from every family.

I'm not in support of attacking doctors and medical professionals. If anything I have high regards for them but sometimes they and hospitals can frustrate patients and their families with their unprofessional conducts.

Doctors at Ughelli central hospital killed my sister last Oct with wrong blood transfusion just for a leg suggery. She couldn't even make the suggery again and they can't explain how someone who's been stable for the 3rd week running after an accident will start battling for her life and passed on within 24 hours of the wrong blood transfusion by an NYSC doctor and nurses. I have every reason to believe a cover up since the pupported panel investigating it hasn't come up with anything since then.

Like even after everything they'll want you to make trouble before they follow due process. This is Nigeria.

The governor with the band still claims to be Mr. Project.

Interest gets added on a daily.

As for compounding, I think that's done quarterly or annually, not so sure. Maybe the bosses here will respond

Compounding is quarterly.

Congrats to all those who have made it to medicals.

Na who never see WhatsApp status update from the towers still dey get hope. Lol

Control7:
Any update on EH?

I won't advise any EH to be hopeful. Just assume it will be a miracle if you ever get called. GTs are resuming Nov. Those I know are purely merit (based on class of degree, CGPA and testmi scores). I'm EH too but I'm no longer where I used to be and NCDMB may not be better. Cheers!

Jesusviper:
My daughter sat for this year Nigeria Airforce secondary school examination and when the first list came out, her name was not there so she was so sad about it but I told her to forget about it.

Just two weeks ago, I enrolled her in a school where I spent 250k for tuition fee,books and uniform.

Just this morning, someone called me that her name just came out in the supplementary list. Honestly I really want her to attend the school but at the same time I am considering how much I have spent in his new school and definitely I will still spend more even if her go to the airforce

Please is it worth all the money and stress. I can overlook everything I have spent in the new school if I am assured airforce will give my child quality education

250k for just one term o. And some people want to be paying 20k per year for uni. Lol

Unless you just wanna forfiet your pay, forget whatever notice period written on your employment letter. I have given a day, 2 weeks and a month notice before. I won't give any employer more than 30 days notice unless the job I'm transitioning to gives me up to 3 months to resume. Some do depending on the role you're entering.

In Nigeria, notice period is one day if you're under probation or worked for a period of three months or less; one week for more than three months but less than two years of service; two weeks for two to five years [/b]of service and [b]one month for five or more years.

However, you might lose some employment benefits if you don't give the required notice in your contract. You employer is obligated to pay anything owed and salary for the period worked till your effective termination date.

I bet Wike have siphoned more Rivers State money using this aircraft than Odili who purchased it or Ameachi who took it to Germany for maintenance.

Yeye dey smell.

Married people, have you ever come to a point were you feel that outside your children, you have no other business with your wife.

That's why I dey where I dey.

That meat is equivalent to what I bought for 1500 in last weekend and it's cow tail that's more expensive. �
I don't like cow meat though so the few times I go for the torso, cow tail or cow head parts.
I prefer goat meat and the cheaper chicken at 2-2.2k per Kg.
I can't do without fish (fresh or smoked scumbia, panla, catfish) though its expensive. That's what always shoot my protein budget to 3-4k to give richness to the food. You dey cook like big man. [left][/left]

Make I give you small tips sha:
Go to the open markets and learn how to bargain well.
Don't price meat especially cow meat. Ask the seller to cut 1k or 1.5k portion for you with a stern warning that you'll walk away if he doesn't do it well. You can ask for another portion if you like or go to another seller.
For the Kings oil, I have been going for refill since it was 800 per litre to now 1500. There are other products that go for 1.2 to 1.3k per litre.

Times are hard, man must be more circumspect.

I bought 750 per kg. Port Harcourt.
It's well with Nigerians. Anybody planning to foist another sufferings on us with his hands come next year, may he /she gets paralyzed and admitted in the hospital until after the election.
What rubbish.

Location where you bought 750, biko?

jlomz:
Check again bros, Delta get 6

And mind you, the last one, those awarded per state were doubled because of the impact of COVID-19 which affected adverts for 2021, which meant Delta got 12MSCs and I think 6 abi 8PHDs.

Na MSc you be bros abi PhD?

It's 8 MScs, 4 PhDs.

https://scholarship.ptdf.gov.ng/news/7/award-of-2020-2021-united-kingdom-and-germany--france--china-and-malaysia--gfcm--strategic-partnership-scholarships--msc-phd-

Delta state had only 4 last year (3 male, 1 female) for PhD where neighbouring Edo and Anambra had 5 or 6. I couldn't understand the rationale.
I hope they do better this time

Liebermann:
Oil producing states have 2 extra slots I think.

No lie here... As for me, it's God's grace and Inshallah.
I had a great interview last year and a more fantastic one this year. Hope they don't give a whole Delta only 4 slots again this year when 1 is already reserved for a female candidate. I heard of someone who got the PhD on the 4th attempt. I don weak by this 3rd time already. So, this is my last shot. #WeMove.

Liebermann:
The funny thing I have noticed about these interviews is that an overwhelming majority of people have positive experiences. Most people will cling to whatever they can to bolster their hopes. This is why it's always very crushing when the list comes out and your name isn't there.

Being arrested or detained doesn't mean that you've committed a crime. If you aided criminals, investigation must prove that you knowingly did that. You'll only suffer for a while until you're cleared. Crypto and POS operators should be more careful though so you don't answer for crimes you inadvertently became a conduit for.

PTDF Matters, eh...
