9jalyte: We do not need any support from any country, we can! in fact they should stop insulting us with those petty grants. Over the years they have been giving, what great change has taken place with those. people

chamboy: If it caused by a trailer, I know who d blood is on

1stola: As a Laboratory Technologist, I am still willing to help... I have written to many top government health agencies through their website and still waiting on their response.
I will really love to work with anyone or group working on any medication for preventions or cure of the diseases or to help take care of Ebola patients.
I wouldn't mind to travel to any African country where the disease has killed lots of people.
This is not a public stunt! I just want to contribute my quarter in order to curtail this 'epidermic'
#Somebody just have to do something before this thing gets out of hands
I'm currently working in a private research laboratory and, I'll just love to volunteer.

Should anyone here have any information or link, please help!

sinceden2: Am sure not all of us know what this selfie means, please can some one tell us what is means? Becos trully me I don't know what it is.

kobonaire: I wish Skekau will wake up today and also decide to take a gun selfie of his fügly face

cirmuell: i was ashamed when one took a selfie in a Cab yesterday. In my mind I was like "what's the caption gonna be, my dad's ride?" it pathetic these days.

Of course those who know how to use firearms safely would probably never pose with one aimed at their head. Even if it was unloaded.

dominique: Did he just enter the country or he has always been there? Why do they have to take the blood all the way to Senegal (about 6 countries away) for testing . The article is too ambiguous to be taken seriously by me.

mamarika: [font=Lucida Sans Unicode][/font][b][/b]I sincerely pray that God will help this situation,the truth is Nigeria does not have what it takes curb this disease "I mean personnel Απϑ facilities"
The first Nigerian to die of this disease"EBOLA"in Nigeria,A NURSE working with first consultant hospital obalende,lagos happens to be a close friend's Απϑ colleague's Aunty.
ℓ̊ must tell you,forget all these propaganda Απϑ fake hopes we keep getting on the media from the minister of health Απϑ all "they are all fairy tales"
That nurse is an elderly woman,a widow,she has four kids.the first son is on youth service outside Lagos,while the other three lives there with her in Lagos.the woman started having fever on Sunday with her kids in the same housee.they called Their hospital ℓ̊ mean where the nurse works Απϑ they told them τ̅☺ isolate her that WHO persons will come pick her up that they Ƌ̲яε̲̣̣̣̥ suspecting "Ebola"as the female doctor she worked with was already ill Απϑ diagnosed of Ebola.
They came on to her residence Απϑ picked her up with an ambulance,Απϑ on Tuesday night they got a message that the woman was dead.cos that was the first thing ♍Ɣ friend told ♍ε̲̣̣̣̥ on Wednesday morning.
Now the immediate younger brother of this woman, a young ma,married with a wife Απϑ kid ,also had contacts with his late sister plus the 3kids ,ℓ̊ have left out Their neighbours.who may have also had contact too.
The younger brother who had contact with her said that the WHO representatives gave some numbers τ̅☺ get in touch with them after carrying the late nurse, the young man said he has called all the numbers,@least so that himself Απϑ her 3kids will be kept under surveillance as they had contact when she was already manifesting,but № way,all the mumbers Ƌ̲яε̲̣̣̣̥ not available one which is available,№ picking.
As ℓ̊ speak the man Απϑ the 3kids Ƌ̲яε̲̣̣̣̥ lodged in a hotel there in lag (will not mention)the hotel name in a bid τ̅☺ isolate themselves from family members)for @least 30 days as incubation period is 21days Max.this is hotel lodge is never the right thing to do ℓ̊ told ♍Ɣ friend,cos if truly ,they contacted the virus ,then people serving in the hotel arnt safe Απϑ they go home too.but the family soooooo confused more so they havnt gotten the w.h.o representatives on fone !
But we keep hearing all the contacts Ƌ̲яε̲̣̣̣̥ isolated Απϑ under quarantine!!!we Ƌ̲яε̲̣̣̣̥ really in a big mess!ℓ̊ must say ,ℓ̊ pray God helps...only him can.

mployer: what sense exactly are you making? That staying at home is all the doctors can offer? Stay at home and wait for ebola to come and wipe out you and your family because you have issues with the government? How is that different from suicide. A lot of us are educated but still with little brain. I am not a fan of the government but this issue is beyong government palava. Ebola is not programmed to kill only government officials, everybody is a potential victim. I know the government is not doing the best but doctors has something to contribute as our concerned brothers. They should start by being available first. I mean call off the strike. They are not dealing with the government, they are failing us. We show them much respect in the society, treated them like kings on campus but this is the reward we get. Please take government out of this, the doctors have failed us. In the previous news, they were demanding for special number plate so we can recognise them in an accident scene, of what use is that recognition to us when they are not ready to offer the least of help. It is all about feeding their over-bloated ego and demanding more cash Its a shame and highest point of greed and ignorance. Thank God ebola doesnt know who a doctor is. Lets watch.

dumodust: he is making sense and he itemised his points well while u set off on an emotional trip quoting the usual greed etc, an arguement devoid of objectivity.
wat he's saying is that an improvement in facilities (and yes, welfare too) was demanded for and is not even yet on ground but u want the nigerian doctors to return and sacrifice their lives for you without adequate protection as usual while u and your family will sit at home and castigate them as usual. Then u will call them fake docs when even the barest form of protection called hand gloves are not readily available in govt hospitals talk less of isolation equipment and the gear u see in the media. If u need dem so much, treat them well. Even councillors have special plate numbers, though I as a doc see the demand too as crap, if reasons are concrete, wats so special about an identifying plate number? Will it change the price of garri? It will even cause more problems for them because they will now be forced to respond to issues when passing by. And I'm sure u will be the first to point them out when that happens
the white docs that had protection got infected, wat do you think will happen if nigerian docs with no protective gear now start seeing ebola pts? They like all other nigerians have a right to live too, especially when you are not paid enough for it.
stop whining and do the right thing by directing your anger to the people who havent done wat they should do or else certainly like you really seem to promote or wish, we'll all die at home

[b]According to Sources''A circular went round all major South African agencies warning about not doing business with a "Gloww... in Nigeria" because several agencies are being owed by them. This information has been successfully managed and circulating only within the system until the owing culture encroached into the fees of entertainers/actors". First, it was the shocker of cutting down the agreed annual ambassador's fee. Many got as much as N5million taken off their fees and they include Chioma Apotha,Basketmouth,Funke Akindele,Ini Edo and Desmond Elliott. Some are being owed after tours tagged 'S andB' and 'L festival' which held as far back as 8 months ago Some of those being owed are MI,Okey bakassi,Seyilaw,Lynxx,Omobaba,Bash,Wande Coal,Naeto C,Bovi,Frank D Don,All the suppliers for sound,light,DJ JimmyJatt et al''. When Alcatel of France dumped them,they shifted to Hawei,a Chinese company Which explains the Network drop in quality ''Their staff too feels the pinch of low cash flow as the travel allowance is by far the lowest in the the telecommunications industry. A company once Known for its attractive salary package now pays graduates in customer care 80k,slashed from the original N250K that they used to pay.'' Insiders also allege that None of their staff has health insurance and there is No general standard for housing loan or allowance.There is No spouse benefits like airtime for your wife or husband, Something practiced by all other telecommunications outfit in the country. ''A senior Manager gets only N6k credit monthly and any thing else spent after that is deducted from his salary. While many of their staff are exiting daily enmasse, artistes are now getting skeptical about signing on to the brand as ambassadors and those in the know are requesting for upfront payment for shows from now on. Their is "building Africas biggest and best network" right?.Well Ghana is almost dead and there is no plan in sight to go to any other African country years after the claim of building Africa's biggest and best network.. So the question is ...WHAT IS HAPPENING?[/b]

dumodust: try to look for gloves in a nigerian hospital, someone will either be hoarding it or eat the money allocated. we are not prepared for the ebola that has been ravaging west african countries for a while now. we dont have enough gear and facilities for barrier care. your government is a joke
in my opinion, no doctor should attend to anyone without provided protective gear and improved conditions... they dont pay enough and people dont appreciate you enough to do that. and to think that we were being castigated for demanding for better hospitals and global care.
now that ebola is around, the silence from johesu is deafening, even on nairaland. cant see that propagandist- 'yourhealthlabs' springing up threads... them don run. now everybody's pushing doctors forward because they know next to nothing about what to do... but they want you to die doing it quoting greed at every instance when you demand for better conditions.
they better come, we must all meet the ebola pts as team players, pharmacist must come and give drugs. team players my foot.
meanwhile RIP to those nigerians killed by ebola... sorry to say so,i feel you guys at first contact did a great job, but sadly, u died in vain. may God grant u eternal peace

1234kkkk: Ordinary diagnose they can't do, Chief Gani Fawehenmi was wrongly diagnosed by these dregs Nigerians Doctors of pneumonia and treated for the same ailment at LUTH. After two years ,a London Hospital diagnosed him of cancer. The only thing they can diagnose is increment in call duty allowance, increment in shift allowance, increment in dress allowance and to fight other medical workers as if they are special. After all, they equally patronize India for medical treatment. They should continue with the strike, at least their private hospitals are benefiting from it.

mployer: Foreign doctors are in Africa fighting epidemic and African doctors are seated at home in the name of strike

Acidosis: Shut up! If Doctors won't allow Pharmacists get PharmD degrees, then Doctors should stick to their acoustic stestoscope and syringe.

They have no place in Pharmacology, Pharmacognosy, Pharmaceutics, and anything Pharmaceutical. Medical Doctors do not produce drugs/vaccine; but ofcourse, you can digress and apply for a role in Pharmacy.

We have Engineers working in Banks; somehow, we call them "bankers", but their respective conscience tell them they are elective bankers

If you want to do banking; go and study banking and finance. If you must work in the Lab, go and buy Jamb form and take a science or medical laboratory course. If you must do drugs, go and buy JAMB form and apply for Pharmacy/Pharmacology or go do "agbo jedi" atleast

duni04: Very false story. None of the doctors at the infectious diseases hospital, Nigeria's equivalent of the American CDC, has volunteered to treat the Ebola patients. The only confirmed case of the disease in Nigeria is currently being handled by nurses who volunteered to do so. The doctors at the hospital have bluntly refused to attend to even the suspected cases of ebola currently in isolation at the hospital.

nnekamezor: I tell u ooo....D whole tin don dey scare me ooo... Lord hv mercy on Naija...

Eyop: @ the bolded

GudluckIBB: Mbillia bell is one of the biggest female musicians in Africa. she has wonderful tracks like boya ye which you just mentioned
I have over 30 tracks of mbilia bell and I can tell you she is a genius.she was once a back up singer to tabu ley who later married her and produced ht tracks for her.try and listen to" MARIO" I'm Sure you will hate the likes of tonto dike after listening to that track.

Litmus: Are you people in Nigeria not scared of the possibility of Bokoharams soaking themselves in Ebola juice and going into towns to pursue and hug people ?


To prevent the plan from backfiring, i can envisage the Bokoharam leadership forming Ebola squads.

Actually, the more i think about it the more certain i become that Bokoharam will at the very least be thinking of how they could use this virus against Nigeria.


Jesus and France will help them ... we're doomed

Liability: i know at some point in life i have made that same grave mistake. This is so strange to me.

rigarmortis: OP, ask all the military d1ck.tators that have (mis)ruled in times past, then ask OBJ, he promised too, you know?....ask him how much he used for turn around maintenance during his rule, you can also visit the witch in the bible, like saul did, but this time, ask her to bring up mr. Yaradua and then ask him too....... Do you know how long it takes to generate 1k mw of power?....not to talk of 10k.......and you want it now?.... Anyway, various IPPs are being built around the country, i heard power has stabilized in some areas of umuahia due to the supply by the IPP in aba, here in abuja, light is fairly stable......up to 18hrs a day when i lived in area 1 and a little less here in gwarimpa estate...dont quote me if you live in the bush where power transmission is yet to reach or is rationed...anyway it will get to you soon, and stop the i dont support any side sh1t, infact stuff it deep into your ars-3, we both know....... Ask olotes like you to stop vandalizing stuff, we will soon get there

OtunbaJega: Does anyone understand what this mugu is saying?

Neddyogu: Viruses are unstable pathogens dat dont survive more than a few minutes outside a living susceptible cell. So a corpse poses no threat as it would most likely have undergone basic fixation before its transport to naija. If d man had died of tuberculosis, na dia yawa 4 gas!

drchingy: This is good enough for me

hunter21: saying good morning everymorning

double3: Coal is not a clean source of energy,any mega project involving burning of coal to produce electricity is not ideal in this very 21st century. The world is going green therefore we should tap into the green economy as well.

Shehucom: its suprising that all d tribes in nigeria call it that general name. BTW na why southerners dey call EBA self garri

sod09: can someone explain y wolves howl

BadBoy25: who has the time to read through all these Long Gibberish ? seeing the Long write up already made me lose interest . you guys need to learn to summarize your post, no one has time to waste .
what is the relationship between Igbo and Yoruba? is it bad or Good ? make it straightforward instead of composing a Novel . Time is Money .
