dead on arrival

i DEY TELL YOU!
Even the news sef is boring.

sreamsense:
Reno Omokri and FFK finally pushed Atiku to a place of shame, Dubai strategy finally collapsed. Just imagine how much Atiku wasted on this rubbish. So if Atiku has become president of Nigeria, these are the kinds of bunch of illetrates he will parade as analysts and experts and wastes our collective resources on irrelevant issues. Experts that can not distinguish between verifiable and unverifiable data. How are you now better than Buhari in literacy level?

This is another level of yahoo-yahoo scam, all experts and analysts paraded alongside the registered-owner of that domain name where false information was hosted should be arrested and investigated. Amount collected should be forfeited to federal government. We already know how the case will end, PDP should forget it. After local and international meetings upon meetings, this is the only rubbish PDP can present at court level! 3D rubbish!

Honestly this Atikus server facade makes change my mind about his competence and sense of judgement (or lack thereof).
I think Tinubu will even make a better president in 2023.

Obasanjo, the man who truly cherishes friendship. Never forgets his very good friends and their children. Has always remembered and taken care of the family of Major Nzeogwu. He is that detribalised Nigerian we refer to.

A few years ago during his presidency he stood in as the father of his friend's daughter at her wedding. The lady's father just before he passed away ask OBJ to do him that favour. He made it and the lady was very pleased.

Lesson to be learnt. Good relationships will always give you peace and move you forward.

Exactly! Including sleeping with his daughter inlaws.

Castroii:
Major Chukwuma Kaduna Nzeogwu...
First and last breed of his kind, an intelligent and brave officer, not the idiots we have now who display their braveness on innocent civilians and run like thieves at the sight of bokoharam.

How ironic! The the Nzeogwu you are praising is popular for gunning down a defenseless civilian and his pregnant wife in cold blood.

That's what scares me about parenting. I'd rather just start my own school if I have more than 3 kids.

Where is PaChukwudi44 and Sarkinyarki to come and tell us what is not true. How Tanko is not the CJN that it is still Onnoghen

How some half educated bigots think anyone can go against a federal government as it's employee is beyond me.

That free-kick was CR7 STANDARD ISH!

QueenSekxy:
We have seen how he now treats those SW and MB that adore and worship him.

Those gworo chewing almajiri talking about religion, please, is Atiku, Yara Dua Christians?


We Igbos hate him cos he first hated us, hate Christians, he is a terrorist sympathizer, a corrupt and backward lunatic, a religious fanatic, a tribal bigot and cow fvcker.

Let us continue to show our disapproval of his ineptitude towards his repugnant demeanour.
We don't hide our feelings, we don't lick asses, we say it as it is and if you aren't comfortable with it, you can join Awolowo in rat poisoning.

If you are Igbo, and we sense the ass licking nature in You, we will label you a saboteur. We don't worship anybody, be you who!!!

You must echoed the hatred part, but you failed to give cogent reasons. We all know you hate him, no need restressing that. We just wonder why?

Telecom and isp uses the country infrastructure and friendly business policy to thrive not like google

Google and co even makes money for isp and telecom indirectly.

Google will find a way to push the cost to their citizen by making them see more adds or giving them premium services or increasing their advertisements rate.

Google is powerful,60% of all internet traffic passes through google ,people hardly use url directly.

Google can make the President of France unpopular by bidding the good deeds and showing only his unpopular side.

Finally ,How do u even calculate the usage of ur country people on google apps and sites?

I am not saying they both should be under similar tax regime, but any company that makes muntimillion dollar profit in a country that country should get a percentage as tax. Simple!

AK481:
Nonsense!!!

If every country collects 3% of the profit made by The country’s citizens using their services what will remain?

What amenities did they use is helping google achieve this profit?

Anyway,I blame Donald trump and his Americans first style ,they should live with it.

It's 3% of the profit made in France that France is collecting. So if every country charges 3% at the end GAFA will end up paying just 3% of their global total profits. This is far less than tax charged on companies like telecoms and internet providers which in effect contribute more to the economy by employing the citizens of the country in large numbers.

busky101:
No problem, I have more than 5 pieces available. Hopefully one will get to you before then

Alright I will contact you.

I am interested.
But I won't be in Lag till 2-3 weeks time. I'd love to inspect before I pay. So may be if it is still available when I enter Lag.

[quote author= post=80006230]This is a society that works.

And a party couldn't do this for 16 years.

They rather ran down our national airways/airline they met on ground and looted the money.

A country that death sentence is the consequence of any politician found guilty of corruption

A country where the youths don't go about supporting and praising thieves

We will get there in our nation one day.

We can only remain positive.
If not in our lifetime, our kids will see a better Nigeria.
We are on track.

Amen in Jesus name.[/quote]Shut up there! Are not the champions of supporting mediocre government policies (or lack thereof)?

What's the difference between PDP and APC on a global development scale?
NONE!

The man is even wearing asho ebi with the vehicle

You know nothing Sir, Wrangler is one of the best off-road vehicles.

tuniski:
How do you marginalize anyone state on ministerial appointment when all states will have at least one, how?

By not giving them the juicy ministiries

patwilly:
Sent you a mail.

Pls edit out my email thank you.

We are marginalized

hakeemhakeem:
I think govt should let the plastic n pure water firm to operate on taxes free and compel them to have a chines of cleaners to clear plastics and nylons within their area

Actually the opposite should be adopted.
Let the government tax them for every bottle and sachet produced.
Then the tax collected shall be used to clean it up.

drlateef:
You are talking like someone who knows the UK. But obviously you know very little of what you are talking. In the first instance, doctors are in charge of laboratories in UK. I am saying that authoritatively because I work in the system. Biomedical scientists at we know them in UK, only work in labs and pass results to their doctors who release results to physicians like them and suggest further tests or antibiotics to use for infections etc. Those information and advice are beyond the remit and training of an ordinary medical lab scientist.
Regarding hospital administration, doctors have not been intetested in the past for various reasons. The salary of an administrator is not as high as that of doctors. Also many doctors do not like to lose their skills while working in administration. That is fast changing however. There is the faculty of medical leadership that is encouraging doctors to get skills of administration and get involved in it. The medical director is next to chief execs. But will start changing soon.

Laboratory medicine is a specialist area of clinical medicine and doctors specialise in it. Laboratory scientists only work in laboratory to produce results. Interpretation, suggestions, advice and conducting of more specialized tests is within the remit of laboratory physicians.

Finally, laboratory science was being taught and developed in Nigeria because of our level of development at the time and lack of doctors wanting to be trained in laboratory medicine. Times are changing and laboratory scientists cannot continue in that role of leadership anymore because more and more doctors are specialising in it. It's inevitable.

Nobody is saying doctors shout not be administrators of hospitals or ministiries of health, the bone of contention is the fact that they want to be (and are) the ONLY administrators in NIGERIA which is not so in developed countries, as you yourself have admitted.
Did you know that a Medical doctor was once appointed to head midwifery Nationwide? This is to tell you the level doctors go to usurp and arrogate all leadership powers to themselves in the health sector in Nigeria. And it has been a major issue that must be addressed for our own public health interest.

Our focus in this country should be community health development.

Jman06:
Honestly this matter calls for special consideration by the federal government!
There's need to listen to the demands of these healthcare professionals. You can't continue to suppress their voices and expect to have a smooth health sector that can guarantee quality healthcare delivery to Nigerians. Why can't government understudy how healthcare professionals work in synergy in the developed countries and replicate same here
Stop giving advantage to only one professional group while neglecting the demands of others! You can never get things right by doing that!

Medical doctors have been the ones running our health institutions for many years, yet we have one of the poorest health sectors in the world!
All the time they attribute our poor health sector to lack of adequate funding by the government but as a matter of fact, that is not completely true. No matter how much government invests in the health sector, we'll continue to have poor outputs until issues relating to professional rivalry in the sector are addressed.

To solve this problem once and for all, government should replicate the system being practiced in the UK here whereby professional healthcare administrators are put in charge of governing health institutions. The healthcare administrators are in a better position to manage the sector because they're usually individuals with no allegiance to any of the healthcare professional groups. So, the likelihood of being biased is greatly reduced.

Nigerian medical doctors on their part need to stop being insecure and concentrate in developing the numerous medical specialties that are grossly in short supply in this country! Imagine them dragging laboratory benches and pharmacies with medical lab scientists and pharmacists when their mates in the rest of the world are busy with organ transplantation, high risk pregnancies, plastic surgeries, stem cells transplantation etc. What a shame!

You have spoken well Sir.
Also in Nigeria especially Doctors do the least work in our communities. For example you will almost never find a full time medical doctor in our rural communities. Even local government general hospitals hardly have full time 24/7 medical doctors on duty. But the hospitals and clinics are manned by other professionals with the overwhelming number of patients and limited resources. Yet no credit is given to them and they are always looked down upon by the doctors.
I have seen villages where a single community health worker runs a clinic. He 'midwifes' births, prescribes drugs, carry out tests, make referrals and everything else! Because he's the most qualified medical practitioner within 50km radius.

The only states I have never been to Borno, Sokoto, Zamfara, Kebbi, Kwara, Bayelsa, Ogun.
It's ironic the zone I have the highest number of states I haven't been to my home NW zone with 3 states.

Tempting.

henrygale:
Not too late to get one(mbbs) bro.
Gather your fellow engineers and make your case in improving your welfare if it's sellable to the appropriate authority. However, you can't equate your bsc with mbbs.

Lol you know nothing Sir.

Sonia201919:
It is only Doctors that are medical professionals others are health workers.

Care to back this up with a proof?

Sonia201919:
I can see u have a very shallow reasoning ,so u expect nurses and others to be heading doctors?u are such a fool.When u go to the hospital ,who do u go to met for your health?a nurse or lab scientist.Mumu

You are now showing your true colors.
Why wouldn't any other medical professional lead ministry of health? Or even the Nigerian Medical Association? Aren't they in the same field facing the same challenges?
What of ministries such as power, works, etc that are been headed by lawyer?
I can see your bias towards doctors to the point you see nothing wrong in it.

MRLANNISTER:
This s the lowest comment I have seen on Naitaland this year

Hehehehe I wanted to quote the guy, but I just weak and passed.

ornicus:
You started with doctors, now you are extending to other medical professionals?

FYI I am an engineer. instead of all this whining, find your way to the private sector, to a section where engineers are highly paid.

Will doctors be highly paid in the telecoms sector? Or energy? Or manufacturing?

Find your way to an industry where you are in demand.in federal and state govts, health is considered more important than public works.

Today ebola may be back. Those doctors you are whining about, those underpaid overworked fellows will be all that stands between you and a plague of religious proportions.show some respect.

Calm Oga engineer
We are talking about the wide gap between engineers and medical doctors (in extension medical practitioners and every other profession).
Every profession is very important. There's the classic debate between doctors and teachers who's more important in a society. In terms of playing vital role in our society do you think it is fair the way they are treated? Stop trying to put doctors above every one else because they render a service and get paid for it like everyone else. As a matter of fact majority Nigerian doctors are heartless greedy people who would go on strike on flimsy excuses and watch may people die, while referring you to their private hospital.
Forget matter bros!

henrygale:
Because they are Doctors!
And what they hold is mbbs......beat that!

Nothing special in MBBS any engineering graduate with a 2.1 could study medicine successfully.

ornicus:
I thought I'd seen the last of these engineering is on same level as medicine wailers. Engineering is 5 years before NYSC. Medicine is 6 years minimum (I know fellas who have repeated multiple times) after which two years of houseman ship then NYSC. So the doctor actually spends three more years in school.

Medicine is far more rigourus than engineering especially in Nigeria where engineering dubs it best is a popular catch phrase.

In every western nation, doctors are the highest paid salaried employees. This even applies in the middle east with migrant workers.

I suggest you stop wailing about something you do not have the stones to go through with. Amazing that educated Nigerians are jealous of people charged with keeping them healthy.

Oga Doctor leave that thing.
A Diploma COHENS worker earns more than a B. Eng. Holder. Did they also spend 8years studying?
While nobody is arguing Doctors and all other health workers shall be well paid the difference between them and other professions especially Engineering is simply ridiculous.

In my state an entry level engineer is paid 38k, diploma holder nurse 90k, a diploma in environmental health from school of hygiene 58k... now where is the fairness in that?
