tempest01: meaning u are very okay with the loss of innocent lives by bokoharam. Though I "didn't" approve the acts of the militants, I could live with it. Can u just shrug off the acts of bokoharam?

we are talking about ibb here. My point is because he's from da north doesnt mean that he supports BH.

oiseworld: i didn't see where he denounce boko haram, can you please quote that part for me.

re-read the article. And when is Gej going to denounce millitant boys?

ujchief: when Mend took responsibility of the oct 1st bombing, Gej publicly said that mend aint the ones that bombed, he said he 'knows' the militants and they couldnt engage in such. He stressed the fact by saying that their is an oil well a stone throw from his fathers house, and no one can claim to be more Naija Deltan (or militant) than him.

he was protecting his kinsmen. Lmao

If Ibb sponsors BH. . . . Can we equally conclude that Gej is behind militant boys?

this should be on the front page

Punch reports that a 27-year-old
Nigerian, Dr. Bahijja Raimi-Abraham,
made history by becoming the first
graduate of Pharmacy from the
University of East Anglia, Norwich,
United Kingdom. She was awarded a PhD in Pharmacy. She spoke to Punch
about her her degree and some of the
challenges blacks face in the UK. Read
some exerts from that interview
below. Were you born in the UK? I was born in Lagos, Nigeria in April
1985 and left Nigeria at the age of six
when my family returned to the UK –
my parents had lived and studied in
the UK previous to that. After completing my primary school
education in London, I attended
secondary school in North Wales,
Penrhos College – where my mother
and her sisters also were educated;
and following my GCSEs I returned to London for sixth form when I studied
and passed the Advanced Level
examinations (A – levels) in Physics,
Chemistry, Biology and Drama. From where did you obtain your
first degree? I was accepted to read Pharmacy at
the University of East Anglia – the
University had just opened its School
of Pharmacy and I was among the first
intake of Pharmacy students. The course was of four years in
duration and led to the award of the
MPharm degree. Following this, I
applied to, and was accepted by Guy’s
and St Thomas’s Hospital in central
London to undergo my Pharmacy Pre- registration year. After passing my
Pre-registration exams and attaining
full status as a Pharmacist, I was
invited by my alma mater, University of
East Anglia, to apply and study for a
Doctorate in Pharmaceutics. How many students registered for
the PhD programme? To the best of my knowledge, there
were seven of us in the School of
Pharmacy at the University of East
Anglia (UEA) when I started my PhD
course in October 2008. Were you also among the first set
of students to register for PhD in the
university? No. UEA has been in existence for
almost 50 years – it was established in
1963 and has produced PhD
graduates for a number of years. The
School of Pharmacy at UEA was
opened to accept its first intake of Pharmacy undergraduates in 2003. I
was among the first cohort of
Pharmacy undergraduates to be
admitted to the university that year.
Approximately 90 of us were
accepted for Pharmacy, and approximately 50 of us graduated
with the award of MPharm (Masters
Degree in Pharmacy) in 2007. I am
however, the first graduate of The
School of Pharmacy at UEA to be
awarded a PhD. I consider this an achievement for
myself no doubt, as well as for my
family, the School of Pharmacy at UEA,
as well as an achievement for Nigeria –
the land of my birth! What are some of the challenges
that blacks encounter in the UK? Challenges encountered by blacks in
the UK are as wide and as varied as
you can imagine – because as with all
other individual experiences, one
must try to refrain from generalising.
For me, my life in the UK has generally been positive. However one of the
major challenges is the issue of
stereotyping…a problem that, I
suppose, can be faced anywhere in
the world. Stereotyping leads to
presumptions which often take a while to deconstruct. For example, working as a locum
Pharmacist I have had experiences
when patients come into the
pharmacy and speak to my white
health care assistant first – somewhat
assuming that perhaps I’m the health care assistant while the white member
of staff is the pharmacist (and overall
manager of the pharmacy on a given
day!). I have had to be assertive –
perhaps more than I would have had
to be if I wasn’t black; assertive in ensuring that I am considered and
respected in the workplace. What are your personal
experiences? As I’ve said previously, my personal
experiences have generally been
positive. I attended primary school in
London from the age of six and then
for secondary school I attended a fee-
paying boarding school in North Wales where I was athlete of the year
for three consecutive years. I was also
a member of the school netball and
swimming teams; then sixth-form
college in London for my A levels
before attending University of East Anglia to study Pharmacy. I also played netball for my university.
Prior to starting my PhD I worked at
Guy’s and St Thomas’Hospital in
London for my Pharmacy Pre-
registration year. During my entire
educational life I would say that I’ve been fortunate to have met some
extremely supportive people. In
general, I’ve learnt life is what you
make it – always do something that is
natural to you and that you enjoy
because if applied correctly, you will excel in it. What is the population of blacks to
whites in your school? In my PhD group I was the only black
student in a group of seven white
people of mixed nationality. What words of encouragement do
you have for young people in your
shoes either at home or abroad? I would say to young people both at
home and abroad that education is
indeed the key to a myriad of life-
changing opportunities. It is important
to get a first degree so that you always
have something to fall back on. The choice of whether or not to
progress to Masters degree level or
indeed to Doctorate level can be made
once the first hurdle is in sight or
indeed after it has been achieved. Stay
positive about life in general. Good things come to those who wait – don’t
try and “grow old” before your time. What are your plans for the future?
Do you intend to return to Nigeria? I plan to pursue a career in academia. I
also plan to explore and avail myself
of all the opportunities that are put
before me. Included in this plan is my
wish to make a contribution towards
the development of pharmaceutical research and practice in Nigeria.
