PHOTONEWS: Fears As Gunmen Attack Abuja-Kaduna Train Twice On Monday, Government Claims It Was ‘Stone Throwers’

http://saharareporters.com/2020/09/15/photonews-fears-gunmen-attack-abuja-kaduna-train-twice-monday-government-claims-it-was-

All these trains going North north...

I doubt if Lagos -Calabar or Benin- Port Harcourt train will be 'stoned'.

South should wake up and push forward the railway system in their region.

Next election, if someone (among those roaring now) from the south becomes president, he will spend his first tenure trying to please the North for their votes in his 2nd tenure.

GEJ had no shoes... and you are a shoe maker.

By the way, there's nothing wrong with being a shoemaker. It's quite lucrative, especially if you have a selling brand. I believe with her modelling career, she can be able to reach out influential personalities and get them as customers.

Make threads on topics you care to discuss stop crying like a wounded animal. The BBC article didnt dehumanize anyone. It's actually Igbos themselves working to change the culture. Maybe you should read the article instead displaying your persecution complex.

There's one important thing captured in the article, most of the people tagged as Osu or Ohu are actually doing very well and are employers of labour. In fact some of them are among the richest in Nigeria.
They also have gained political positions, which contradicts some parts of the article.

There are names someone told me that are Osu, and you would wonder why people won't want to link up with the in terms of marriage, but would though so in financial and political matters.

Blue3k:

Someone said one time that the Archbishop asked young people during their Confirmation to denounce discrimination against Osu.
I don't know if that can have effect in the future generation.

Please help me. I am in medical school. My cousin and his wife (both living in USA) introduced a girl to me. They want me to come over.

From my understanding the two families are friends.

According to my cousin, "she is a good girl from a good family "

I have already started chatting with her, she seems cool, apparently.

But I need unbiased views from those with experience please.

Put yourself in my position and advise me.

she's 27. She is doing her masters .im 29, finishing next yr.


Thank you.

First things first.

Are you in any relationship in Nigeria?

Do you want to move to the US?

If you answer all that...
And your desire is to move to the States, note that as a medical doctor, you don't need a woman-link to take you there. You can migrate by yourself.

If you are in a relationship with a lady in Nigeria and both of you are in love, plan with her and you can move out of the country after your graduation.

So some people still care about age in this 21 century ..... According to you the guy is now 30 years and your friend is 5 years older than he boyfriend which means she is 35 years... Am not sorry to say this, your most be stupid o... She is still single at 35 and she care about age by now.... Who is going to lose

You can calculate o...

This means if the girl is not interested, let her leave and find her agemate.
It seems the guy wanted the girl, but doesn't want to be taken as a younger brother kinda level.

And from the look of things, she has a good job. And probably has been selective till she met this guy at 33.

But guys and ladies, be honest in your relationships, a lady or guy that will stay, will stay.
Lies hurt!

kingemaker:
No, they started dating 2 months after they met two years ago. Meaning, dude has been keeping this lie to himself since that time.

Maybe he thought the girl wouldn't date him if she knew his real age... Or perhaps he may not gain some respects from her.
Some Nigerian girls are fond of looking down on guys they are older than, such that she may not want to greet him first for instance, or be ordering him around etc.
All these can hurt his ego should he imagine them.

Did you all notice that boat is used to transport the injured to possibly a hospital?

Simply put,
No hospital in that area
No ship/boat clinic/ambulance

But they have a governor, senator, federal and state assembly members, LGA chairman, councillors...

Many things need to be fixed.
I believe this is similar situation in other areas (maybe excluding cities)

And when election comes, same politicians are recycled and people will ignore sane contestants because they are in an 'unknown party'.

I hope to transform things starting in my LGA, but the Local government elections are mere appointments from the serving governors.
I hope people in the grassroots will start voting for credible leaders at least at the Local government level.

A young , vibrant and educated man should be supported for that seat.

What Malami did may not be pleasing to the NBA, but is the best way to fight by stripping him of SAN?

Is SAN an award or a deserved merit?

Maybe the politics behind SAN will soon be exposed.

Good day nairalanders,

Sorry I have to write this, I have decided to keep it to myself but, I decided to let it out.

Just like every other job seekers who are looking for jobs either to switch to a better pay or change environment.

Though I have been out of job since the COVID-19 pandemic started, I worked in a retail company, but since we have not been called back, I decided to search for job.

I saw an advert and decided to submit my application, just like every other people, luckily after one week or two, I got a mail that I have been shortlisted for their online test and after I pass, I will move to the next stage which is virtual interview before coming to their office to sign my employment letter.

After the mail, like 3 days I got a mail containing my ogin and password for the test, fiam, I opened and I did the test.

After like another 3days, I got a mail from them that I passed the test and i should be expecting a whatsap call from one of their head office in Europe.

Luckily I got the call, from one of the European country number from a Nigerian, believing is the call that would change my life forever.

After the normal introduction and other things like the job functions, the real bible questions started which I was able to scale through it.

Towards the end of the virtual interview, the last question was are you a born again Christian, have you been baptised and what denomination are you?.

And I said yes I'm a born again Christian, I've been baptised and I'm a Roman Catholic.

At the end of my speech his response was, is not possible to be a Catholic and be born again.

He said once you were not taken to the river to be baptised that's not a baptism.

Catholics are not born again Christians and I'm not baptised too just because I was not taken to the river to be baptised.

His last statement was, you actually have the experience but, we need other denomination not Catholic that the job entails somebody who is a real born again Christian.

That was how I lost the job, thinking today being my birthday, I will go to church and do special thanks giving.

I have seen ladies leave guys because of the guys are Catholic.

One of the ladies is still single after 5 years. Others are married.

Your denomination should not affect your work eligibility. Or is it a particular church work?

The president of the first gospel drama ministry in Africa, Mike Bamiloye has also taken the turn after Pastor David Ibiyiome and Apostle Paul Eneche to shot back at Daddy Freeze in a very uncommon way by using Bible verse to buttress his point.

The controversial part is that, his scriptural backing cannot be pointed either as to other Minister's of the gospel of Daddy Freeze.

Their reaction is needed more on Nigerian situation and on the presidency, not just on an individual

She became a citizen to help her chances since the US has more veto power on who becomes head of all major satanic UN agencies.

That's smart, what do you think?

SUFFERInSMILIIN:
I think you have a point this would leave South-East and south-south alone. Southwest should apply so they can send their daughters and son to fights boko Haram Islamic state

Maybe it is time Southern soldiers serve in the South, Northern soldiers serve in the North.

One from South-South can serve in South-West etc.

The hospital which was established in 1925 as Braithwaite Memorial Hospital, named after Eldred Curwen Braithwaite, a British doctor and a pioneer of surgery, originally, served as a medical facility for senior civil servants. It later became a General Hospital and has since gained status as a "Specialist Health Institution.

A major turn around in the facility, occurred in 2018 upon the establishment of a Medical College at the Rivers State University, which in turn led to the upgrade of the Braithwaite Memorial Specialist Hospital to a teaching hospital renamed, Rivers State University Teaching Hospital.

The Administration of Governor Nyesom Wike saw to the overhauling and upgrading of infrastructures at the hospital, with will over ten million dollars invested into the procurement of medical equipments.

Last week, I and my team was at the Rivers State University Teaching Hospital on a fact finding mission, so as to have a personal assessment on the facility. On ground to receive us, was the Chief Medical Director (CMD) of the Hospital, Dr. Friday Aaron.

Dr. Aaron intimated us on the many great strides going on at the hospital and how the state government interventions is greatly impacting the Nation’s health sector.

The facility has 375 licensed beds and 731 medical staff members. It’s departments includes; Medicine, Paediatrics, Laboratories, Radiology, Family Medicine, Obstetrics & Gynaecology, Anaesthesia, Surgery, Pathology, Ophthalmology, Accident Centre and the Surgical/Medical Emergency.

Apart from meeting the heath challenges of the public, the hospital also serve as training facility for medical students from the newly established Medical College at the Rivers State University, and also for nurses to become graduate nurses.

In addition to the current infrastructural development in the hospital by the State Government, more surrounding lands have been acquired, and contracts awarded for the further expansion of the Hospital. Also as an addition to the Doctors quarters that was built by this administration, construction works have begun for the construction of the Junior Doctors Quarters. All these are to ensure the comfortability of the personnel and close proximity to the hospital.

As part of the activities for our visit, we went on a tour around the facility, led by the Deputy CMD, Dr. Ali Ben Jumbo.

We visited the Radiology department, Obstetrics & Gynaecology department, Surgery department, the Accident Centre, the Surgical/Medical Emergency and other departments within the facility.

We also saw the water treatment plant, and a Gas plant that enables the hospital produce oxygen for its use., hereby making it self sustainable in that regards.

However, most fascinating for me was the Radiology Department.

It is equipped with the state of the art equipments, and rated the best within the Region, as it plays host to patients from different states in the country.

Out of curiosity, I asked the Head of Radiology Department, Dr. Rufus Abam, if the facility was not being overwhelmed, given the wide geographical area that their services covers. In response, he said; “With the amount of equipments we have here, and their various capacities, I can tell you that this facility is being underused. We can handle more than we are receiving right now”. He also went on to inform us that, that their Mammography section, offer the the most affordable Brest scans and check ups within the region, as the Rivers State Government subsidises cost on that, and that we should notify the public.

Another wonderful innovation we discovered at RSUTH, one which was unveiled to us by the CMD, was the e-Hospital portal.

Presently, through their website rsuth.ng, you can book for an appointment, make relevant payments, even without visiting the hospital. They also created an app for that too.

This innovation is geared towards making RSUTH a smart hospital. Presently, patients registration is being automated, as every patient now have their unique ID Number in the hospital’s data base. All activities at the hospital, including payments and financial summary can be monitored at the backend through the aid of the app.

With the aid of this mobile app, one can interact remotely and virtually with the hospital. It has an e-wallet system integrated with every patient’s ID number and portal where you can load funds, which can be used for payment of services. These funds is also transferable to other users, as you can now remotely transfer funds from your wallet, to that of a relative who needs medical attention.

With the introduction of Paperless consultation and family Medicine, the hospital inches closer to telemedicine.

As our rising population continues to grapple with increasing health challenges in a society with weak health care system, it is encouraging to see that the Rivers State Government is making efforts to ensure that people have increasing access to quality health care by not only building new health facilities (e.g the Mother and Child Hospital) but also upgrading and equipping existing health facilities in the case of the Rivers State University Teaching Hospital.

The anger of the people is raging but Buhari is still praising himself about the good things his government has done. This means he is totally disconnected from the people he claims to be leading. What a tragedy!
