Where was this story all these days?
It is when he declared his intention he no longer be BAT boy. May choose the right person for us as the president.

The story has been in circulation since Chief Akande launched his book.

The limousines for the royal fathers was top priority in the face of terrible security issues. Great pity! May God deliver them.

Isn't that the official car of the Presidency?

NASS, the governors and the monarchs who are closest to the people (latest case being Zamfara) are no better.

Our people tolerate and applaud it so we get more of it rubbed in our faces.

Sureplug123:
will you say same thing if it was the other way round?

Why not? Holding on to grievances and hurts of any kind by anyone torments the mind which could ultimately affect the body. It's scientifically proven. That's why extreme sadness or disappointment could lead to depression if not well managed. One must always be mindful of the fact that being in control of one's mind helps to maintain mental balance.

You will overcome. Amen

I am talking about my own experience. Am not bothered about their situation. Am not supporting anyone. I can only talk about my experience. You and I are not living with them and the social media is not the court of law. Let's wait for the autopsy result. Worst of these have happened before and more is still going to happen. We have seen d one that stab d partner,the one that shot d partner and the one that kill with acid. Why is this so special. Is it because she was a gospel musician. The most important things is to play our role rightly or someone is gonna drop dead. Many can't many crises. This type of killings is common in abroad because of stupid marriage laws. I can only advice men. It is you who need to work out of the marriage fast fast or else, u will commit. Funnily,u see women accessing men who leave the marriage in order to avoid further crises. They will say he is not responsible for walking out of from abusive marriage. Both men and women are guilty of these crises not men alone.

You did right by walking away from trouble. There are extremely difficult and nasty women who men should run away from. Certainly I won't support a woman who molests her husband....not even emotionally. It works both ways for me.

DamnnNiggarr:


When she was alive, somebody, I mean somebody new all this, and no one was able to speak up to the right authorities in order to come to her rescue, but now she's gone, every body suddenly found their voices.

This is Medicine after death, if I may say.

Honestly, it's so annoying.

Gainman:
My personal experience can never make me support any side in this issue.
I remember when I came back from Ghana in 6 yrs ago. My wife told her people that I wanted to kill her. In which all her family members believed her. Non of her parents cared to call me and ask me if it was true. Since then I have been wondering what kind of creatures are women. This is a woman I never raised my hands on. I never keep secrets from. I did not hide money from.
So let assume she fell sick during that time and she died. What do u think her family will tell d world. Dumb people easily believe women and this is why most women don't care to lie against their husband. I am not supporting d singer's husband but I know there is something hidden. Whenever I remember how my wife lied against me,I see all women like that. I use to ask women how will u feel if a woman lie against your son. Most women are hypocrite.even men too.
Funnily u see ladies who can't find husband to marry due to their bad character have turned to motivational speaker because of this gospel singer. They are now condemning all men. Some start condemning marriage they have been wishing for. What I know is no reasonable man will beat his humble wife when he no chop craze. A woman who can't control her mouth is liable to suffer from her husband. Even as a girl or a lady,your blood brother will hit u if u can't control your mouth
As a man,I wish u find yourself in a position of having a bad wife to know if I can manage d situation right. .

Her son has spoken. She was treated badly by her husband, no doubts.

SmileDance:
she will deny it and fight me for trying to destroy her home, you can't really help who doesn't want to be helped sef, it is what it is unfortunately.

You can report and ask for anonymity while they do discreet investigations.

And as a mother, you kept quiet, made no concrete moves to rescue her? Having read what Osinachis first son said, I'm stunned that no one deemed it fit to report to appropriate agencies knowing that her life was at risk. I can't imagine this happening to anyone in my family.

I'm so sad she lost her life and allowed her kids to grow up under such harrowing conditions just to save a dead marriage.

Shetemi12:
Osinbajo is a TRAITOR...



You can't tell me otherwise..

Others have countered this without any denial by the author! PMB was said to have picked his name from a list.

Barristerlaw001:
...imagine this Ifeanyi to be a Yoruba woman... who for know Paul....

Paul is the son of the late reputable Justice Adefarasin and Hilda Adefarasin who played a huge role in the emancipation of women in Nigeria. The family is well known and respected.

Perhaps he should stay away for now.

Why can't the Police arrest the Alfa and David for further investigation? The earlier we get rid of these dubious Alfas, fake Pastors and dishonest babalawos, the better for our Nation, more especially the undiscerning and gullible youth.

sreamsense:
Yoruba Muslim should stop marrying many wives and plenty children in most cases when they are not exceptionally rich. They should stop hiding under canopy of they are capable and can equally take care of wives and children. 80% of ritual killing cases and touts are from them even though Islam teaching forbids it, but honestly; by the time most of their children grow up; some of their children become wayward and frustrated in life to the extent of going into ritual killings and touts due to extreme poverty.

Only responsibility some of the average and poor Muslim parents do is to give birth, spend money to do naming ceremony, but once the child grows up and responsibility begins most of the children are abandoned to their mothers that may even be jobless; it is another reason why many run away muslim children end up as conductors and touts when their christian children counterparts are in schools. It is similar reason why Boko Haram and bandits are able to recruit many abandoned and alimonjere children in the north because their poor muslim parents with many jobless wives can't cater for their financial and moral need as they grow up.

Today's pride of having many children can become tomorrow's nightmare if they are not properly taken care of. Something should be done by government to limit number of children you must give birth to even if you have multiple wives and financial status of such parents must be examined by government before granting that permission to give birth to certain children to avoid future millitancy and banditry in Yoruba land

Truly, the earlier we do something about raising families that we can't care for, the better. It's the reason why we have so many street kids, ritualists, bandits et al. Their stories are mostly similar. Tales of uncaring or dead parents and lack of care. I pray that we can throw sentiments aside and do the needful. Of course, many Christian kids also go off course due to the same reasons.

The principle of marrying 4 or more wives (with divorce in-between) specifically states that they should be treated equally. That to me is God's way of making us see how difficult it is to maintain more than one. Islamic law (to the best of my knowledge) does not accept a non challant attitude towards children.

DuvanZappatta:
Worst thing is that I can't talk to a therapist about that because I can't bring myself to mention.. it's easy on here because this is a faceless media. My elder sister is married with kids she grew up and act like that never happened when we were growing up yet I remain the damaged one till today. My cousin married too and I'm not good enough for my future wife. I know only God can help me out

Please work on your mind and talk to a therapist. Prayers will help but it's wise to do the needful and move on to a better life. God will surely guide and help you.

All happening in Zamfara, one of the most insecure, poorest and least literate states in Nigeria. Hmm!

The impact of the gold and other mineral deposits seems not to have made any positive impact on the masses. So sad.

I don't understand this struggle that requires the murder of innocent people, burning down of valuable assets and the total annihilation of security agents in some cases. Add to it a total shutdown on Mondays which is the first day of the business week...ojo aje as Yorubas call it. Isn't that a path to ruination of the very vibrant economy hitherto?

Lagos Schools are better off after the handover. They have concentrated more on rebuilding the core public schools and getting more teachers. The public schools have the private ones to look up to and compete with thereby resulting in an improvement in the education system and school results.

St Gregory's, MGGS, Ansarudeen, Baptist Academy, St Finbarrs etc are better schools today and impacting positively on society.

All they need do is to take over and rebuild the old Muslim schools as done in Lagos. The public schools will always be available and they outnumber the mission schools anyway. People will always have a choice.

I pray that we don't end up with a Somali type of situation in Lagos with each "union" taking control of specific areas to harass citizens for money under any guise. We already seem to have boys controlling streets to collect unreceipted parking fees et al.

Senomii:
Why was the guy trash talking nigeria saying lagos is dangerous and all of that? Unless half his brains had been eaten by dogs with that statement he made he should've realized his negative portrayal of our country could lead to a negative perception from outsiders and may drive away investors

His dad was killed in his presence by armed robbers at age 12. The family left Nigeria shortly after that.
That kind of thing gets ingrained in one's mind.

Englishisamust:
Femi otedola oyo
Mike adenuga oyo
Angelique kidjo oyo


Why are great people associated with oyo?

Femi Otedola is from Epe in Lagos State
Mike Adenuga is an Ijebu man.

Where you're born isn't necessarily where you come from.

God bless Funke Opeke. A shining star always.

nedekid:
Yeah, therein is the problem. Bros wount be head of the house. Eg, Aunty wants to go clubbing or hangout with her men friends over night, Bros cannot talk. Cook, she no go gree, you must employ cook etc.
She looks high maintainance. No matter how woman get money, she much chop her hubbies own if not she looks at him as less than a man.

Never judge anyone by "looks". The heart of man often does not show on the face. There are still decent and humble women around irrespective of their status. I pray that it works out beautifully for both of them.

Funny people! The person in charge of the unit under PYO was Maryam Uwais, a Northerner. She already gave an account of what was done.

nedekid:
Congrats oga.
But this Aunty be like say she pass you small oh. As in high maintenance.
Reminds me of ubi frankilin and Lilian esoro.

Her bio shows that she's an accomplished lady. She's capable of looking after herself.

God has truly blessed MI with the bone of his bones! I pray that that their marriage lasts for a lifetime in peace, joy, good health and with love all around. Beautiful children and the provision to take care of them shall be yours. Amen

Well accomplished gentleman and lady! More blessings to both of you.

Cyoung4real:
Some people have problem for every solution. You reject his own suggestion and you couldn’t bring up a better option since you said the one he brought up is not good enough. Now they are blaming each other. At least, if that project was awarded and the attacks still went on to happen, Amaechi and the company will be the ones to blame here but now look at what they are saying. They better find a way to secure those routes

He was asked to represent with the required additional information. That's standard business practice. He didn't comply.

RATING GRADE:
50-74 is C but the teacher Wrote A in all

Please what your advice?[/quote]@OP
She got As all through. You were looking at the class average score for that particular subject.

The summary is that they're all so intelligent that 18 students had scores higher than his own.

Perhaps they should do without positions henceforth and record only the grades and average scores which are sufficient for assessment.

EuDavies:
He was my friend, we still spoke the day it happened. I never knew that will be the last time we will talk. He had a lovely 1 year old boy and a beautiful, kind hearted wife. Rest in Peace Ifeanyi. You will always hold a special place in my heart.

Condolences to you and his family.
It's a most heartless thing to do indeed. I feel so sad for the children. May God comfort and provide for them. Amen

Concern Over Recurring Failure Of Foreign Trained Doctors
The controversy between the Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria (MDCN) and foreign trained doctors over qualifying exams to practise in Nigeria seems not...

The controversy between the Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria (MDCN) and foreign trained doctors over qualifying exams to practise in Nigeria seems not likely to end soon. The situation has remained the same for nearly five years now as the students accuse the council of deliberate effort to deny them opportunity to practise their profession.

The situation resurfaced following the conduct of the examination in November last year for foreign trained medical and dental graduates at the Usmanu Danfodiyo University Teaching Hospital (UDUTH) Sokoto. Just two weeks ago, the council also advertised for the conduct of its next qualifying exam due in June.

Out of the 826 medical and dental graduates that sat for the November examination, only 357 of them passed.

This comprises 341 medical doctors representing 41.3 per cent and 16 dental graduates representing 53.3 per cent.


However, the about 500 persons that did not pass the assessment examination cried foul.


They alleged that the MDCN has discriminatory policies against them which deny many of them opportunities to pass the examination.

Some of the foreign trained graduates who only want to be identified by their first names said failing the MDCN examination subjected them to untold hardships.

They said the MDCN examination has no syllabus or curriculum to guide the participants for the examination.


They also complained of extortion by the MDCN. They said the organisation asked them to pay N900, 000 for attachment before the examination, and the amount excludes accommodation, feeding, as well as cost of travel.

They said this is in addition to $130 they pay to an American company for verification and the N130, 000 they pay for the MDCN examination.

The foreign trained medical and dental graduates said unlike medical students in universities in the country, they are not allowed to resit when they fail the examination, with many writing it over five times.

They want the examination to be mandatory for only those that want to be clinicians while those who do not want to practise should be allowed to go for NYSC.

“We are calling on Nigerians to help us,” said Mohammed, who coordinates the group of those who didn’t pass the Sokoto exam.

“MDCN asked us to pay this huge amount of N900, 000 for attachment without considering the economic realities on ground.

“They think because we trained abroad, we are all from rich homes, forgetting that the majority of us went for training abroad through state government scholarships while some parents took loans to send us abroad for the training,” Mohammed added.

He said many foreign trained graduates have given up on medicine because of the way MDCN was frustrating them and frequently introducing changes in regulations and policies concerning them.

“Unlike in other countries, the MDCN exam does not have a structure. So the students register blindly and take the examination blindly. You just pay for the exam; no syllabus, no marking scheme. Everything is shrouded in secrecy.

“When they release the result, if you see your name, you pass, if you do not see your name then you do not pass. There is no record to even show your marks.

“So the illegality that happened in Sokoto is not the first. It happened in Ilorin in 2017. In fact, some people did not even participate in the examination. They automatically passed because they had money to pay,” he said.

Mohammed added that their parents wrote a letter to MDCN concerning the anomalies but instead of responding to the letter, MDCN came up with the new rule of a mandatory fee of N900 000 for attachment before they can register for subsequent examinations.

“We don’t want any six months attachment. It should be voluntary, and if they want to force it upon us, it should be free of charge.’’

He said the exam should only be made compulsory for those who want to practise or work in the hospital.

“They have no right to say I must take a license examination before going for NYSC. That is violating my rights. Not everyone that studied medicine wishes to work in the hospital. Some go to universities, some to research centres,” he said.

Faiza, another foreign trained medical graduate, said based on the stipulations of the MDCN Red Book, they were not supposed to even sit for the examination in the first place.

“We went through the Red Book and found that if you attended an accredited university outside of Nigeria, you are not supposed to sit for the exam; they are to give you a provisional license on return to the country and you do your internship for one year, then receive permanent license after the completion of internship,” she said.

“Even if they will not give us the license, they should allow us to do the NYSC so that we can get job offers not necessarily at hospitals,” she added.

Naja’atu, on her part, said: “MDCN should have a structured exam and there should be a second chance for any candidate who fails. Writing another exam in June 2022 is not a second chance.”

Eugene, another graduate, said the MDCN examination is conducted in two days. “The exam was like a game of chance and not a true test of knowledge. The MDCN examination is the only one I know of that you will sit for a computer based test and at the end of the three hours, which is actually too small for 300 questions, you don’t know what you scored. At the end of the day, you just see pass or fail. You don’t know what you failed in or where you need to improve,” he added.

When contacted, Registrar of the Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria (MDCN), Dr Tajudeen Sanusi, said the council has a curriculum and syllabus, and is contained in the Red Book, contrary to what the foreign-trained medical graduates said.

He said because of the kind of training they had and their massive failure, the council came up with a special curriculum for a six-month programme in selected six teaching hospitals from each of the geopolitical zones.

He said the N900, 000 fee was not to be paid to the council but to the hospitals. However, he said the foreign trained medical graduates went to the National Assembly and the lawmakers directed that the six-month training programme should be dropped.

“So what else do they want us to do? We did not make it compulsory for anybody. We said go and train wherever you want to train and present yourself for the exams,” he said.

On resit exams, Sanusi said the MDCN is a regulatory body and its assessment examination is not a university examination where there is room for resit.

“When they sit WAEC, JAMB or NECO and fail, do they resit?’’ he asked.

He said the issue of doing youth service does not arise as they are not competent enough to handle patients.

“Someone who has not been certified to be able to treat patients will be mobilised for youth service as what?” he asked.

Sanusi said JAMB handled the computer based test for the council and only a technical issue happened during the exam.

“JAMB was unable to load the questions over night from Abuja so they had to charter a flight that morning to Sokoto, so instead of the exam starting by 9am, it started by 10:30am, that was what happened,” the MDCN registrar said.

He said, “They cannot intimidate anybody. We have a responsibility in the council to safeguard the health of Nigerians and other people living in this country without fear or favour. We don’t train them, and these people are not even allowed to practise in those countries where they trained.

“What we are doing for them is called damage control. Some of them are not even qualified to sit for our examination. They are our children. If they don’t accept them over there, can we throw them away? That is why we put up a programme for them but they complained and we removed it, yet they are complaining.

“We would not allow people that are not competent to have access to our patients and start killing people.”

He described the medical programme in Ukraine as a fraud, saying Russia is the language of expression there but they hurriedly set up a parallel programme because of the quest for medical education by students from English-speaking developing countries.

“They don’t train them using patients. They train them using mannequins only. They don’t even see or touch patients and they are coming here to talk rubbish,” he said.

Are you sure? Pyrates closed shop
in higher institutions since the early 80s. Only those who were members prior to that remained as members according to what one of them said during an interview.
