omonnakoda: Not quite true many made sacrifices for democracy and to train other doctors( particularly training) and we must always be grateful to our teachers for teaching us the secrets.....
Anyway I remember Buhari chucking out doctors and their families from LUTH and other places because they defied him. Nigeria's problems are complex and it is easy to point the finger. My advice to young doctors NEVER strike !! if you are not happy resign, go abroad or learn another job eventually the nation will get the message! Also Nigerian doctors need to respect other professionals and accept them as equals.The world has changed from "the doctor is the head of the team" doctrine

No need claiming to be a doctor.
You are not one.
Doctors should NEVER strike cause they are supernatural beings without a cause?
Please get real.

omonnakoda: That is False not only is it false. Such a bond would be unconstitutional.
Resident doctors are on a training post just like a degree programme or apprentice accountant etc. It is not an employment contract!! is there any University programme that allows you indefinite time to graduate Are nursing students given no time limit? or Lab technicians??

I am stating clear facts here.
I chose the word often.
On what basis are u comparing a nursing student to a resident doctor? That is a very ridiculous analogy.
Residency IS NOT a university degree, all resident doctors have a degree already, and no one wants indefinite time,rather adequate facilities and proper funding and a conducive training environment.

omonnakoda: There is no benefit to anyone from a doctors strike. Why should government fund doctors training? Truth is many of the doctors here still reason like undergraduates with little knowledge of the world or reality. Does government pay for training for pharmacists,or other health professionals? This is a political issue and in many places where government does this for doctors they(residents) earn much less than nurses and other professionals until they qualify.In short they make a sacrifice and then when they qualify they serve the nation. In Nigeria they bullied the nation into paying superlative on call allowances and when they qualify most leave government employ. Why should government pay for you to better yourself

Doctors who benefit from government funding are often required to sign a bond which mandates them to work for that institution where they are training for a given period if they complete their training successfully.
Doctors are the only healthcare professionals who have a given time to complete their specialist training or lose their appointments. In other words resident doctors are living on the edge and have no job security in the govt sector, your meal is dependent directly on passing exams, your passing exams is dependent on good training facilities and adequate funding. Good training facilities mean a better trained specialist who can better care for his patients.

Very well done video.
Just go on you tube and check how many hits the video has in just a few days of release.

otokx: There are really only 3 airports in Nigeria being Lagos, Abuja & Port Harcourt. All the rest are wash.

I'm sure u are from the SW where all the airports are moribund.

I'm sure an ACN supporter hid the key.

Keshi looks like he's been raaped

please just one goal.

The worst miss ever

Gambo's first touch is to give away the ball.
Didn't he see Torres first touch

Torres has changed the game

[s][/s]

rockiedink: Much as Ideye and Musa are the worst players ever to feature for the Super Eagles, the bigger I.diot has to be Keshi himself!

Is there a law/rule which says you can't substitute Musa or Ideye?

Mba has has a relatively good match but you go ahead and take him off for oafs like Ideye and Musa.

Now I understand why some clamour for a foreign coach!!!

SSSSSHHHHHH!!

bboiabb: the score doesn't show how the match really is.

IT DOES

IDEYE IS
USELESS

oduamadi's absence is telling

Ideye the chief of beautiful nonsense

babatunde nawa for u

Goal!
crowd support.

NEYMAR! NEYMAR!

stone2x: @zenatta:

you took the words out of my soul, i was born in june, while my sis, love to celeb her Bday every yrs i will run back to sch wen ever she want to mak my Bday party Big, and i also remmember wen my mum came over to school and brought a cooler filled up with rice and chick, i just broke down in tears asking her why she went tru d stress just 4 me. i love you mum

Hope you will get a good result in your junior WAEC.

Modern witch in white.

I was excited when you started this thread, but presently i must say that Enugu has deteriorated no thanks to the useless ESWAMA.
The roads are not swept, the grasses on the road and sidewalks are not cut,the bus stops are not cleaned esp on weekends.
I understand the gov has many ongoing capital projects but he shld also look into everyday running of the city.

Is that the general Nigerian populace lacks the art of basic comprehension, or that some people from certain places hate Don Jazzy, cause i never saw where it was said he bought the wine with his money.
Does it not make sense he uses a Loya milk mug since he is the ambassador of the product.

ROSYL: Was thhat why they bored us off with that movie 'After Earth'( Will Smith and son Ltd)

The preview is to die for.
Thought the movie would be captivating.

"only for the plane to
taxi,rise into the air a bit and
suddenly came down again!"
Are u referring to a passenger Boeing/ Embraer jet, or a 1920 biplane?
What do u mean by rise in the air a bit cause that's just ridiculous.

jajad: Actually the Hon. Kontigi is quite right, and you, my dear are quite wrong.
You cannot infer that the average score of Anambra students is the highest.
If each state has 100 slots and only 45 people from Sokoto take the examination, the lowest scoring among them (let's say she scores 2), will always get in. And the other 44 may have an average score of 150! Of course this isn't a realistic scenario, but it shows how the number of people applying from a particular state can affect the cut off mark.

PS: This is how people fail in aptitude tests, and say people from their village are against them.

On the other hand if 1 million Anambra students sit for the exam and all score 130 and their cut off mark is 139 will any be admitted?
So my dear friend, for the cut off to be 139 it simply means that going by your assertion a large number of Anambra students scored above 139 vs the number of people from other states who scored above their cut off marks so as to get an even distribution.
In any case my village pple are the ones making the high scores.

[quote author=ola_pluto]Self delusion is not something that can be cured. Inferring from one thin source confirms a fickle mindset to me.[/quote]Which thick source do you need, JAMB, NECO or WAEC, cause they all say the same thing.

This thread simply confirms the intellectual superiority of the south easterners.

[quote author=Hon. Kontigi]people just comment ignorantly. The cut-off marks are not set arbitrarily; rather, they are based on a number of factors including pass rate - this explains for example the difference between male and female figures for kebbi state. The Unity Schools cease to be such if students are not admitted from all the states of the federation in equal proportion.
The states with high cut-off marks just happen to have large numbers of applicants- nothing more; it's not because the the boys and girls from there are more brilliant than others.[/quote]Your last sentence is false.
The students from states with higher cut off marks have higher scores and are thus more intelligent, simple.
They may also have higher number of applicants but this is not always the case.
If you take the mean score of each state Anambra will still come out tops.

Okija juju: How effective would a V4 KIA Rio be in a chase against a V6 vehicle? Very ineffective.
Against a V8 vehicle even worse.
The effectiveness of the police can never be measured by the car they use. Remember that the existing Hilux vans were also given to them brand new. The Hilux is a V8, 4wd drive car that is also all terrain. Yet they wrecked them. At some point, they were also given Prado SUVs which they also wrecked.
The Nigerian police would wreck these cars in no time. That's why we a re not so excited about this move.

The newly purchased vehicles are geared towards community policing.
Each is labelled with a given location where it is stationed. They are not patrol vehicles.
They are also armed with radio to call for back up if need be.
Hilux vans are still in use.
A Hilux van cost 3 to 4x a Rio.
The aim of the purchase is to heavily increase police presence and deter crime.

eaglechild: what is the time?
