CrimeRe: Cultists Kill Vigilante Member In Rivers by Cantonese: 11:05am On Apr 08, 2024
CountinBlessins:
This is what happens when a people encourage crime and evil. Rivers people, their chiefs and youths have encouraged cultism for too long.

They have made it part of their culture just like my state ( Edo state ) go to my state and see what people are suffering because of cultism.

This is what happens when the foolish elders and youths allow bad vices become a norm.

The monster you made will consume you .

Foolish people.
They know the cultists. They live together, sleep together, eat together.

Someone commented earlier asking government to declare them as terrorists. That should be one way forward too, if society must be rid of this menace.

Fantastic.
It will be the joy of medical students to school there, especially with the owner as a renowned medical doctor. Hopefully such great feats can be replicated across the nation. Surely this university will produce some of the greatest medical practitioners in the future.

Thank you Dr. Maduka. Thank you also for consistently placing your community on the map of well developed communities with your great projects.
CrimeRe: Sextortion Case: Two Arrested In Nigeria After Australian Boy's Suicide by Cantonese: 8:49am On Apr 08, 2024
Ahh.

Very shameful act. Deliberately causing the death of a fellow youth with their evil intention of extorting am the miserable 300 dollars from the victim.

Hopefully the punishment is very severe and those who perpetrate such wicked acts must pay the price, if possible with their own lives. No wonder some people reject Sharia. With Sharia in place, those boys surely would lose their limbs, as punishment for the offence.

Taking to 419 as a means of livelihood is not as a result of lack of job opportunities. It is simply the choice of those involved in it, who want to become Dangote overnight. If you get creative, if you acquire skills, then you are empowered to make sustainable wealth over time. You are able to live in peace, with no fear of SARS, etc.

Then she didn't drive all the way , I know the only route entirely by road would have to be across Egypt if you look at the map. What am I even saying sef , the UK is an Island on its own so she would have to have used ferry to cross unless through an underwater tunnel ( I believe there's one linking London to France ).

This same thing happened to me like 3 years ago; I presented with a simple open-and-shut case of malaria but the doctor prescribed a confused cocktail of antibiotics and vitamins that bore no relevance and made me even more sick.

I couldn’t believe it, I don’t even like going to the hospital again.
Very sad.

Far from it. Not every Profs child in my set cheated and I know of only that 1 chap who used to see exam questions before the exam date. The funny thing is that this classmate of mine would still have passed the exams without seeing the questions before hand because he was extremely hardwoking but I doubt if he and his crew would have consistently scored 100% in those MCQ exams without the unfair advantage his Dad by commission or omission allowed him to have.

Having said that, another 20% of my class cheated to pass if they were on the verge of being kicked out of Med School for failing a class more than once and there was another classmate whose Dad was also a Prof of Medicine who got asked to leave Med School for failing the same class twice. So, it wasn't all of my classmates whose Dads were Profs who cheated in exams.



Things have degenerated in Nigerian Medical schools to the extent that the following stories will show :-

1. There is currently a Senior Doctor who used to work at UCH and was in charge of mentoring or supervising young Medical Students. This Doctor allegedly lured one of the students to a hotel in Ibadan in the guise of helping her prepare for an impending exam. He then allegedly proceeded to forcefully defile her by her own public account and she even publicly named the offending Doctor on the internet for the whole world to see.

UCH constituted a panel, called the girl to give her account and the female panel members (themselves senior doctors at UCH) proceeded to gaslight the girl by asking her to state her body count and asked her why she did not wear underwear to a meeting with a man.

Suffice it to say that the panel members sided with their colleague and UCH gave the accused Doctor a soft landing by allowing him to resign and they must have given him a good reference because he immediately left Nigeria for the UK and is now practicing Medicine in the UK. I pity his new patients and medical students he comes into contact with if all that young medical student said about him are true. The BRAVE young lady stuck to her studies and will be qualifying as a Medical Doctor from UCH in a matter of months.

2. I met a not yet successful politician at a friends restaurant in Lagos more than 15 years ago. We got talking and the guy said he has bedded 2 female final year medical students in the same room before and the females saw no big deal in it. I'm guessing that they must have slept their way through their Med School lecturers to get as far as final year of Med School.

3. The one that is scariest is when more than 10 years ago, newspapers carried the story of a female medical Doctor who was arrested at an ungodly hour skimpily dressed and soliciting for "customers" in one of the red light districts in Abuja. It was some of her colleagues who went to plead with the task force and bail her 'cos she was supposed to be on call in the hospital the next morning. Imagine a medical doctor still doing prostitution on the streets of Abuja at night huh?? Things dey happen for Nigeria.



That's the anomaly we have in Nigeria where from top to bottom the best of us have been relegated to the background whilst the more criminally minded who see themselves as being above ANY rule or law get parachuted to the top by the criminals in power.

But is such a situation sustainable huh? How long before it implodes huh??
Thank you very much. This is very enlightening. Enjoy the rest of your evening.

TravelRe: Foreign Carriers Engage In Price War To Frustrate Air Peace Out Of London by Cantonese: 6:50pm On Apr 07, 2024
helinues:
It's an open market

No one is frustrating anyone .

Air peace should have made proper consultation with other airlines before splashing the average airline ticket to UK.

Win win for the travellers as the airlines would drag themselves to the extent of free falling the price .

Modified: As usual, tribal coloration must be added to my comments. Air peace is our own, we all want it's success but they can't be doing things in a wrong way without calling them out.

First Air peace trip from Nigeria to UK, they had issue in both Nigeria and UK, can everybody be wrong? Perhaps, Air peace should have a proper consultant teams that would help them to put things in order before taking any steps..
But you added tribal coloration in the first place, as you always do.

You tried to tone down your unfair comment. Without proper consultation, can you venture into airline business? Do you want to advise an established organization on how to carry out their already successful business? Or maybe you are one of those officials of the NCAA Allen Onyema complained about in Nigeria.

If you say buy or patronize Nigeria, how can you make such a reckless and unfair comment. Maybe you have never purchased a plane ticket before, or you simply choose to be insensitive as usual with all your APC backed comments.

Plane tickets are unfairly raised against Nigerians. You may purchase the ticket for the seat beside me in Lagos, while I purchase mine in London or elsewhere outside Nigeria. One thing is sure that my ticket WILL be far cheaper than yours. That’s absolute cheating. Nigerians rather purchase their tickets in other West African countries as they know it will be cheaper.

If you say patronize Nigeria, then you must support and promote the Nigerian brand.
TravelRe: Foreign Carriers Engage In Price War To Frustrate Air Peace Out Of London by Cantonese:
Definitely a very big war.

The European airlines have always been like this. Mostly they are backed by the governments especially when their airlines are government owned.

Have you ever heard of Sir Freddie Laker and his Laker airlines? That airlines in the 70s and early 80s was the clearest example of how European competitors can use government regulation and price wars to drive some operators away from the system. Government licensed his aircrafts to land at Sanstead airport instead on Gatwick which was bigger. I remember that his London - New York route was a hotcake because of his rates.

Laker Airways pioneered many new, cost-saving as well as profit-enhancing, commercial concepts and operational techniques.

After unsuccessfully trying to block Laker through government regulation, the then so called giant lines, British Airways, Pan Am and TWA, quickly matched Laker's rates for their then economy-class seats. Pan Am also introduced a new low-fare alternative called budget.

Sir Freddie Laker lost to unfair competition and Midlands bank took over owing to huge debts. I remember clearly a friend of his offering the man a job and the bank allowing him to retain his house and Rolls Royce car.

Hopefully since Heathrow is privately owned, there should be a level playing field for all operators.

However there are presently low budget airlines in operation and making success if it. Examples are Ryanair and JetBlue.

Not just weighty, but completely irresponsible and reckless. That was a joke taken too far. Comedians think that they can just say defamatory things against just anyone of their choice and get away with it.

With nothing to hold onto; with no finance to pay the cost of such libelous statements, why then make such wicked comments?

I absolutely agree that some supermarkets should be sealed up as a lesson.

The painful part for me aside from not placing the price tags, is not putting the right prices on the products. You get the products with a particular price on it first; when you get to the counter, the cashier machines and gives you a different price from what is displayed on the counter. That is always so embarrassing and annoying.

I can mention two popular supermarket with this very disgusting behavior.

Unfortunately wars nowadays are no longer conducted by the sheer size of the men on ground, otherwise Russia long would have overrun Ukraine. Technology plays a more major part in contemporary warfare. Israel is a nuclear armed nation and more technologically advanced than Iran. We expect Iran to be very careful. I also expect that the imminent attack will not be staged on Israeli soil. If that happens, expect a swift and decisive response against either Iran or proxies.

Ukraine would not dare bomb Moscow, otherwise Ukraine will wiped off the face of the earth. Expect the same when you attack a nuclear armed country like Israel.

Foreign AffairsRe: Iran To U.S : Step Aside So You Won't Get Hit. by Cantonese: 1:20pm On Apr 06, 2024
Are we still going to have a Middle East if Iran directly attacks Israel. Are we going to have a Lebanon if Hezbollah attacks Israel? With a very weak economy, where is the confidence of Hezbollah to fight Israel?

The Iranians appear to want to fall into the trap laid to destroy all that they have militarily labored for over the years.

Asking the Americans to step aside amounts to nothing. The Iranian alliance with North Korea and Russia will amount to nothing if the Americans are dragged in. Clearly the Russians and North Koreans know that such would amount to the much avoided Third World War. They certainly will avoid it and the Russians will watch Israel responding to Iran, Hezbollah, the Houthis and the rest of the proxies get attacked with more deadly weapons by the Israelis, and fully backed by the Americans.

In all, an end to the violence in the Middle East must be advocated by all interested parties. An end to the Iranian backed plan of the destruction and annihilation of Israel, backed by Iran must be put to an end.

A two state solution must be advocated with enough assurances for peace in that region, must be supported.
