GodswillAJudins:
Let see it this way.
Imagine the word without light(electric), gadgets and machines to aid the doctors, the won't be able to perform effectively. So engineering is the core to every other discipline. Nigeria would surely have a turn over in technology,
Doctors I hail your good work but engineering is the core and ur backbone in modern medicine. Show so respect.

nigerian engineers ll earn respect when they start producing these device and instrument used in various clinics in Nigeria

omicron:
Who built the equipment doctors use? Who built the equipment that the people that built the equipment the doctor uses used. Who discovered the science behind building the equipment? Who taught the person that discovered the science the science? Who originated knowledge? Who did this, who did that?

Rubbish arguments.

Like I said before? I blame poverty.

I want ask you:
1) the equipment the doc used, where were they biult? Nigeria??
2)personnel working in company where these equipment are built, how much are they paid?
so advice to you for your service year is that if you are not posted to an engineering firm ask for redeployment.

it all depends on the purpose it serves. my friends still think it a waste of money for me buying an ipad5 until it was ceased from me on clinical posting.I taught the world has ended cause I can't read on a lower spec; even on my hd laptop nor 5inch phone. they strain my eyes.

preciousjoz1: I'm okay bro.i've been thinking:why dont you give us some kind of advice,course to study e.t.c. like an orientation on what to expect.

ok but it all be short
before giving u any tutorial , my no 1 for u
is to be yourself.
2. diligence is the key.
3.seek advice from senior colleagues who are like minds I mean serious.

being brilliant may set you apart but if you are not hardworking it will set your downfall.
I won't be able to go further cause I'm really being percussed in posting today. time to read

preciousjoz1: Oya boss eby001 and boss Osahon7

preciousj it been long I visit nairLNd how are u doing

match fact: drinkwater and de laet(delete) are man utd academy graduates.
....for those who care to know

OracleMxNelson: omg i hope the op is not suggesting dt i chose wrong

i'm not suggesting anything. remember that a failed courtship is better than a broken marriage.

bakandow11: When a gurl discovers d conscience of her beauty it spell her DOOM, rear to find beautiful gurls with such other qualities cox d beauty would av cast the shadow of arrogance that they will end up in the hands of a player.
A man is not successful untill he is married.
Good job though, ultimate search begins immediately....Zoooooom!!!!

@bolded Hmmmm, copy that. Arrogance set in; next thing is looking forward to hook 'omo baba olowo'

Waspy: Taaah.....One can only get such a chic in heaven, but i agree with you on all,100%. I pray God win me a trophy

If only our women can develop 3/12 of the above. I will gladly go to altar the next day with my fiancee if I discover that she has atleast 3 of the above esp smarter than I do, God! I can kill for that.

12. She means the world to you.
Sometimes we love a person beyond imagination
and we aren’t sure why. To be truthful, you don’t
really need a reason. If you love her and can’t
imagine your life without her, then don’t allow
yourself to lose her.
If she means that much to you, then understand
that she means that much to you. Too often
people don’t realize what the other person means
to them until they lose them. We always think
that there will be another chance, that it’s
possible that the two of you will one day
reconnect.
Maybe. But the opposite is also true. You may
have lost her forever. You may suffer for years
and years because you let go of the most
important thing in your life. Don’t take the risk.

6. She’s willing to make compromises.
People are stubborn – both male and female alike.
We like things the way that we like them and
aren’t especially open to making changes we
don’t deem necessary to make. However,
relationships require making compromises.
It’s just the way things have to work if you want
them to work. Finding a woman who will make
compromises is only half the battle, however.
You’re going to have to make them just as well.

7. She feels like home.
Being in love, deeply in love, is like finding your
place in the world, your home, for the first time in
your life. It’s knowing that you are exactly where
you ought to be and that there is nowhere in the
world you’d rather be.
If you look into her eyes and see your soul
reflected in them, then you’re home. Don’t ever
leave.

8. She is more than happy to tell you
when you’re wrong.
Every man – and I mean every man – needs a
woman who will call him out on his sh*t. Guys
have an uncanny ability to make poor decisions
and do stupid things.
Finding a woman who will keep you on track and
tell you when you’re wrong can very well make or
break your life.

9. She is strong, but feminine.
All people have a slightly different taste for the
women they are attracted to – but they are all a
combination of strength and femininity. A strong
woman is a partner every man needs.
A feminine woman is… well, a woman. The two
aren’t opposites. In fact, they are often one and
the same – when found in a woman that knows
how to hold her ground and be proud of who she
is.

10. She’s passionate.
A life filled with passion is a life worth living. But
living a life of passion alone is basically impossible.
Passion exists between two living things – usually,
in some way or another, between two individuals.
The beauty of passion is that it’s rather
contagious. It’s the world’s most revered
pathogen.

11. She’s driven.
I understand that some men want women to be
stay-at-home wives. I also understand that there
are plenty of women who want the very same.
This sort of woman isn’t for me, but clearly some
people are looking for just this.
Nevertheless, you still want a woman that is
driven. If she wants to stay at home, cook, clean,
and take care of the children, then make sure
she’s the kind of woman that wants to be the
best stay-at-home mom she could possibly be.
Without drive, there is no purpose.

Every once in a while – on very rare occasions –
we meet the woman of our dreams. It’s always
unexpected and almost never at a convenient
point in our lives, but she appears nonetheless
and changes your life forever.
The dynamics between man and woman have
been gradually changing for the past few
decades, but the essence of the partnership
basically remains the same.
We are designed by nature in a way that allows
two such opposites to join and make a whole.
Finding your other half is a journey of its own –
usually a grueling one at that.
If you are lucky enough to find that woman, that
rare sunflower growing on a barren desert, then
do right by yourself and hold on to her as tightly
as you can – never, ever let her go.
Not all of us were so wise when we met the loves
of our lives… and believe me when I say that
we’re regretting it. If she has any combination of
these 12 qualities then you should never let her
go:

1. She’s smarter than you.
Every man needs a smarter woman to help him
get through life in one piece. They say that
behind every great man is a greater woman –
they aren’t lying. Without woman, man is little
more than an ego-trip.
Enter a smarter woman into his life and suddenly
that ego has a purpose, a direction, and the
wisdom not to screw everything up.

2. She’s beautiful.
Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder – as long
as you find her to be incredibly beautiful,
according to your definition, then she is worth
holding on to.
I feel that these days we have those that put too
much emphasis on beauty and then those that
are rebelling against the concept and giving little
to no importance to beauty.
Beauty is something that has been reveled upon
since humans had eyes; it’s not something that
we should be ashamed of, but rather something
we should learn to appreciate properly.

3. She’s kind and nurturing.
Good people are kind people. If she isn’t kind
then she isn’t worthy of taking up a part of your
life. Being a woman, being nurturing is very
important as well. Some people may not want
children.
In some relationships the man may be more
nurturing than the woman. Nevertheless, women
are born with/develop maternal instincts with
age. If you wish to one day start a family then you
want to be sure you found a woman who wants to
be, and is suited to become, a mother.

4. She’s vivacious.
Life gets difficult from time to time. It can get
boring and monotonous just as well.
Women weren’t created to entertain men – if
anything, it’s probably the other way around –
but having a woman who is lively, energetic and
hungry for adventure will add a dynamic to our
life that will only make you happier.

5. She loves you with all her heart.
This is, by far, the most important quality any
woman can have. When a woman loves you she
loves you with her entire soul. It’s not the same
sort of love that men experience – men always
were and always will be more egocentric than
women.
Women, on the other hand, have the uncanny
ability to devote themselves entirely to the person
(s) they love. If you find a woman that truly loves
you then you found the greatest gift in the
universe.

On a serious note , I know this was coming- cascade reaction/ cascading

LAGOS, NIGERIA — People avoid shaking hands here these days. The government is urging us not to. This is a serious matter in a country where a casual “hello” is downright rude and everyday greetings involve elaborate rituals based upon age, rank and even the state of the weather and the day of the week. Until about a month ago, it was by no means unusual for two friends, male as well as female, to remain hand-in-hand long after the protocol of the greeting was complete. Now not so. The Ebola scare has introduced a new awkwardness in social relations.

I first heard about the government’s call to avoid shaking hands from a priest at Mass three Sundays ago. It was not long after the Ebola virus had landed at the Lagos airport on July 20 in the person of Patrick Sawyer, a Liberian national and naturalized American citizen who had fled the Liberian capital Monrovia in hope of better treatment in Nigeria. He died five days later, by which time others had been infected, whereupon the Lagos state government, in collaboration with federal authorities, was quick to promulgate the message: Avoid physical contact, wash your hands frequently, and leave it to professionals to handle the dead.

While the country’s myriad radio stations broadcast the warnings, the authorities also asked churches and mosques to spread the word. (Most Nigerians are profoundly religious, and even many nonbelievers attend services, compelled as often as not by neighborly tradition rather than pietistic pressure.)

Working from the airline passenger list and hospital patient information, the authorities were quickly able to develop a comprehensive list of those who came into contact with Mr. Sawyer, and sent medical workers to locate those who might have been exposed to the virus. Some 200 people were put under observation until the 21-day incubation period had passed.

The authorities wanted to avoid the panic and mayhem that occurred in Liberia, and I have to say (though I usually find very little to praise in any government in Nigeria) that the speed and efficiency with which the Lagos State authorities reacted was exemplary. It seems as if the virus has been contained in this city of 20 million people. Agence France-Presse reported this week that 320 people suspected of exposure to the virus have been certified clear and released, and that another 41 remained under surveillance.

But the situation here and elsewhere is still uncertain. Despite all the precautions, one of the nurses who had treated Mr. Sawyer managed to escape a poorly guarded isolation ward and travel to the southern city of Enugu. Her name was never released, and it is not known why a professional nurse would suddenly take flight. In any case, the Enugu state government was quick to act. All of the 20 or so people she is known to have come into close contact with during her daylong trip from Lagos were located and placed under surveillance. Though the nurse, who apparently did not know she was infected, has since been reported to have died, there have been no reports — so far — that any of the people she came in contact with have been infected.

Continue reading the main storyContinue reading the main storyContinue reading the main story
People in Port Harcourt, the oil capital in the south, have not been so lucky. Another suspected carrier also escaped from a Lagos isolation ward. Unlike the nurse, he allegedly knew he was infected. The doctor he consulted died of Ebola on Aug. 22, according to the World Health Organization. The doctor’s wife, who was flown to Lagos for treatment with her three-month-old baby, is also said to have died, according to local media reports. The infant’s fate is unknown. The authorities say the man who infected them may be tried on manslaughter charges. W.H.O. officials said this week that there were three confirmed cases of Ebola infection in the city, and that some 200 people remain under surveillance there.

The tendency to panic in the face of a deadly virus with no known cure is of course understandable, especially given the stories that have been coming out of Monrovia and elsewhere in West Africa. Foreigners from suspect countries are regarded warily. Just recently, the Lagos police, acting on a tip from fearful neighbors, raided a hotel and arrested 39 people, 35 of them from the Democratic Republic of Congo. The others were from Senegal, or Sierra Leone, depending upon what newspapers you read.

There have also been the inevitable quack cures, as well as traditional herbal remedies from folk doctors. In one bizarre case, claims that drinking and bathing in salt water would prevent infection flooded the Internet. A surprising number of people apparently believed it. Two are reported to have died from drinking salt water, and another 20 have been hospitalized.

Yet it is remarkable how calm most people have remained. Not that they aren’t taking precautions. The other day, for instance, a bank security guard offered me some of the hand disinfectant that most people seem to carry about these days, as did the owner of a local cafe I frequent.

There is little doubt that quick action by the authorities has generated a broad sense of civic responsibility that is rare in Nigeria. Even the federal government, otherwise so mired in corruption that it is helpless in the face of our home-grown Islamist insurgency, appears to have taken an atypically responsible approach. Despite the perennial distrust that most Nigerians have toward any government statement, the fact that the virus has so far been relatively contained has given this nation of skeptics hope that our leaders can govern, once they put their minds to it.

Nevertheless, fear remains that Ebola may yet spiral out of control. Another death was reported here this week, this one at the Lagos University teaching hospital. It is said, though not confirmed, that the health workers who attended to the victim were not wearing the recommended protective equipment.

This does not inspire confidence. Though United Nations officials have praised the way Nigeria has handled the threat so far, the nation’s health minister warns that “a few” more cases are likely. In the meantime, most of us are crossing our fingers, rubbing our hands with disinfectant, and carrying on as best we can. Meanwhile, newspaper cartoonists are having a field day dreaming up alternatives to the handshake.

slimmy05: I hope many of those who are said to be quarantined are not just down with malaria, fever, vomiting or diarrhoea that has nothing to do with the Ebola virus. When things happen like this, I know that many innocent people will become victims of indiscriminate isolation leading to more deaths because of poor diagnosis.

May God help as many as will be down with any kind of illness at this time, as their fate would already have been decided

@slimmy05 think of this: if we do nothing.
So any suspect must quarantined cause the only check we have for now is quarantine and isolation.

Can lvg pls removed young

Anybody who wanna help, do business, or make profit can consider HAND SANITIZER........ No amount of isolating ur self will help. No matter how u ll still have live of people.

@all
why keep mentioning docs being greedy ?
if want to be sentimental, this particular doc is from a peculiar set of people from SS/SE who have penchant for money making at all cost. even now, drum of war in my house betw 2 guys 4rm that region on issues concerning money.

these guys just confirm why i need to get out of this God damned country if i want to achieve excellence in my chosen career. it may take 1,2,3,4,5 or six years, i'll pay the price

SACK THEM ALL! was the chants on i always see on issues concerning nma strike. now i know that fighting peoples cause is a lost cause(because they actually don't know what they wished for)

indeed 'ignorance' and greed is dx
