Da Vinci code is ok, but try reading "cracking the DA VINCI code" it exposes the lies of Da vinci code

How do I get this book

Proudly Igbo and Proudly Imo!

Thums. Up Anambra. Imo used to be number1 but Rochas is killing the system

kenny987:
I still maintain that people voted for their choices and u cannot confidently say all Igbos in Lagos voted JK. Also, by ur very words, there was a split in votes of Yorubas resident in Lagos. If u say Igbos will no longer be respected in Lag because majority of them voted JK, how do u plan to also disrespect d Yorubas that also did? How do u alsp plan to 'honour' or respect Igbos that voted Ambode? So where Yorubas voted Jk it was fine and good but where some Igbos voted same person, it is a 'gang-up'? How convenient!
Whoever wants to be appointed Commissioner in d SE must also live n contribute meaningfully as well as be eminently qualified for that position. He cannot naturally be a lone soldier so point out d Yorubas who fit this bill in the SE like d Igbos are in Lagos. Or will d Governor travel to d SW to pick and appoint d commissioner?
Again, u cannot disregard d cosmopolitan nature of Lagos by virtue of having bn d capital of Nigeria. it is the commercial hub of Nig n not only of the SW so it is not on d same level as other SW or SE states, it is a little more central than regional so it is only natural that residents are as diversified as they are. It should come as no surprise therefore that there is a commissioner . of Igbo extraction in Lagos. Show me one in one of the other SW states then we can talk. Thanks.

U hav bbeen very rational and logical and I must commend u. But there is little u can do to convince the yorubas or any other tribe for that matter. In more civilized countries, the oba should hav paid dearly for that singular statement that he made.but not in my country.
The whole one nigeria thing is a facade and am surprised that igbos haven't realised that yet. Igbos have done nothing wrong our only offence is being igbo. We need to start developing igboland. We can do it. We did it in lagos and we can still do it in osha, Aba, or even pH. Ukwu nnayi na mba adighima. #Igboezue

Amazing @Op.

EBOLA: NIGERIAN RESEARCH FIRM SUBMITS SAMPLE DRUGS TO FG
A pharmaceutical research center in Abuja, Ben Amodu Firms and Research Center, yesterday said it has submitted drug samples to the Federal Government that have the efficacy to tackle Ebola virus.
The Chairman of the Center, Pharmacist Ben Amodu, said the center had produced drugs for the treatment of haemorrhagic fevers, which could also be used for Ebola virus. He said the drugs have been submitted to the committee set up by the minister of health recently on Ebola adding that the drugs could cure Ebola virus.
“We gave the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) and World Health Organization (WHO) samples of the drugs but the WHO later phoned and said they were not supposed to verify Ebola drugs. I gave samples to the committee set by the Minister of Health on Ebola virus and I hope that due process will be followed in determining the cure for Ebola.”
He said the Center was into research of neglected tropical diseases, adding that the drugs made by the Center had the efficacy to cure Ebola symptoms.
He said, “We got the drugs that cure Leishmaniasis and they have been previewed. We invented a drug, DAABS 2 which also cures Dangue fever which is viral Hemorrhagic fever and as you know Ebola is also a viral Hemorrhagic fever. Their symptoms include fever, intense weakness of the body system, vomiting, diarrhea, headache and internal and external bleeding. If you remove the bleeding aspect the disease becomes typhoid and hepatitis. The International Organisation for Scientific Research based in US, Japan and India have also previewed us for the management of hepatitis A,B,C,D,E and F, of which we have treated so many people. We have a drug that stops bleeding, including those from cervical cancer and uncontrolled menstrual flow. Our drug called SAABMAL was tested by the World Health Organization to have 97 per cent effectiveness in all forms of fever symptoms, including dengue, malaria and Ebola. It presently cures typhoid. Another drug, TAABS 2 also has effects on fever while SAAB 6 has very strong Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties as confirmed by National Institute for Pharmaceutical Research and Development (NIPRD). Also one other drug SAAB is a very good immune booster.”


Contrary to popular believs, Nigerian pharmacists and other well meaning health research professionals are working tirelessly despite poor funding and infrastructure.this is quite laudable.

Nice one bro u hav completely refuted all d heretics here. May God bless u. Signs of d end time; many will reject d true teaching and seek for gospels dat suit dere lifestyles. #peace#

Ubenedictus: This is why it is very important to study sacred scriptures and not just cherry pick some passages.
first the term "brothers" and even sisters is used in scriptures to denote a wide range of relationships.
1st, it may mean biological brothers.
2nd near kinsmen..
3rd people from the same tribe.
4th people from the same nation.
5th fellow christians.
It is important that each time you see the world brother you know which of the above categories it falls into.
The bible call lot a brother of abraham, even though they were simply close relation, peter address on the day of pentecost say "dear brothers" even though they were only from the same nation and paul addresses is letters to the brethern even though they are not biologically related.
Secondly the bible clearly shows that "james and joses who were called "brothers" of the lord are not children of mary the mother of Jesus but of another mary who gave birth to salome. This is clear from mt 27:56,61; 28:1 mk 16:1 lk 24:10.
Thirdly scripture only say "brothers of the lord" it never said they were children of mary!
This fact clearly show that his "brother" were mainly close relatives.
how wish you took time to study the bible you will see that there were only 2 apostle among the 12 who were named James and non of them is a son of joseph or mary.
The 1st james is james the son of zebedee brother of john, mt4:21; 17:1 mk 1:29; 5:37; 10:35,41; 13:3, lk5:10..... Act 12:2
the 2nd james is called james the SON OF ALPHAEUS mt 10:3; act 1:13
so please tell me which of them is the son of mary? Is it the son of zebedee or that od alphaeus? Or is josephs 2nd name alphaeus or zebedee?
joseph my dear was a great man, that has nothing to do with sexual power but because he accepted the will of God for his life and took care of the son of God.
Peace

Very well said. The blue print for consultancy is very much in place already infact there are consultant pharmacists in some teaching hospitals and Fmc already and they attain this status through rigorous tutulage, research and exam certification by the West African post graduate college of pharmacists. But the hospital management hav refused to recognise dem let NMA and JOHESU drop sentiments and iron thins out through dialogue its the only way to avert all this bickering.

Watch this video and judge for yourselves. If anyone does not accept the glaring truth after watching this video,then there is no need wasting our time arguing because that person has blatantly refused to harken to good reason. I rest my case!.

Mbediogu: Thanks Dr. Eilogie for your well researched write up. You have shown the material doctors are made of. Is anybody still in doubt why things are still going the other way in our health sector? Why the most basic drugs must be imported from India? Professionals and vocational are leaving undone what they are trained and paid to do; seeking to bastardize the art of patient/doctor relationship by dilution. I have been in medical practice for 33yrs and I must say this development is catastrophic. I blame the Pharacists squarely for this ugly development; for giving leadership to an unholy alliance to pull down doctors. Let us watch.

Choi! this one na personal beef

Oduduwaboy: How do you reason with an irrational being who is incapable of reasoning . These are the kind of low-minds that populate JOHESU ...Allahu Akbar!

Wat concerns JoHESU in this matter now Nawa 4 u 0

Pharmacists are charlatans ?? Smh ofcourse all other health professionals are charlatans xcept NMA. Ur post is obviously biased and lack insight. Hav u ever bothered to ask urself y d health bill has not been passed?

Y don't u just agree to plain truth dats glaring at u. The Nigerian trained doctor is incompetent q.e.d

matify: Yes!

They seem to be doing pretty well but overworked and that is the harbinger for errors to thrive irrespective of their level of competences.

Such slips and mistakes like you graphically painted in your post are not exclusive to Nigerians doctors , you have failed to be dispassionate and objective in your reportage as Indian doctors face more litigation and disciplinary actions in London and America.

. If u read thru d post carefully, u wuld discover dat dis is not d 1st time dat doctor is making a mistake. In 2007 a high court in d uk branded him incompetent! Dat speaks volumes 0.

A Nigerian doctor practising in the United Kingdom is banned for one year over the death three years ago of a boy twin. He is accused of killing the boy through negligence, writes Daily Mail 
A newborn twin boy died because managers at an overstretched maternity unit failed to make proper checks on whether a bungling doctor was up to the job.
Dr Olufemi Dina was allowed to work only under the supervision of a consultant after being blamed for the death of a young mother following childbirth, and also after falsifying medical records.
But with a severe shortage of staff, managers at the unit where he had been working as a locum for three days allowed him to take charge of delivering Natalya Almond’s twin boys.
The first, Lien, was born safely, but his brother, Arron, was deprived of oxygen when his head got stuck for 20 minutes, and suffered severe brain damage.
Yet Dr Dina still placed him on his mother’s chest – only for her to see to her horror that he had turned grey and wasn’t breathing. Arron died after three weeks on a life support machine.
After a lengthy battle to learn the truth, Mrs Almond and her husband Neil, from Darwen, Lancashire, have now been awarded more than £50,000 after the hospital accepted Arron would probably have survived had he been delivered competently.
Dina, 49, who was found to have ‘communication problems’ because English is not his first language, was later banned from practising for lying to investigators. But the Almonds are furious that none of the staff who put him in charge of such a complicated birth have been disciplined.
‘You put your trust in these people and believe that they know best,’ said Mrs Almond, 27. ‘Now we know managers at the hospital knew he wasn’t competent enough to deliver my twins but simply left him to it.
‘We feel the people who let him work that night are partly responsible for what happened.’
In 2007 the Nigerian-born doctor, who specialises in obstetrics and gynaecology, was branded negligent by a High Court judge after sending home a new mother who complained of headaches with painkillers when she in fact had a fatal blood clot.
Then in 2008 he was accused of falsifying medical records and prescribing powerful drugs to a pregnant patient he had not seen while working as a locum in Manchester.
The General Medical Council ordered that he should work only under the supervision of a consultant.
In September 2010 he secured a locum post at Royal Blackburn Hospital. On the night Arron was born there were staff shortages and clinical director Mark Willetts let Dr Dina work unsupervised because the alternative was shutting the maternity unit.
Lien was delivered safely but Arron was deprived of oxygen when he became stuck. Three weeks later his parents were advised to turn off his life support machine.
In an initial report, the hospital claimed Arron’s death had been unavoidable, saying ‘no gaps in care were identified’.But after his angry parents discovered that Dr Dina should not have been practising unsupervised, Arron’s inquest was halted.
An independent medical expert concluded that ‘the outcome could have been significantly better’ had he been supervised by an experienced consultant, but the coroner recorded a verdict of accidental death.
Dr Dina was initially allowed to continue practising but after pressure from Arron’s parents there was a fresh investigation. The Medical Practitioners Tribunal Service banned him from practising for 12 months for lying that  he had told the GMC about his Blackburn locum post. He has now lost an appeal.
Mr Almond, a 36-year-old plasterer, said: ‘His mistakes have now caused the deaths of a mother and a baby, but he could be able to work again next year – what does it take for a doctor to be struck off?’
East Lancashire Hospitals NHS Trust described Arron’s death as a ‘very sad incident’ and said ‘changes in practice have been put in place’. But it added: ‘The Trust has found no grounds for action against individual doctors.’
Dr Dina’s solicitors declined to comment.

Look Phantom or watever u call urself getout of this thread if not thunder go fire u! Enemy of progress. Oloshi. Remove the plank from your eyes first before attempting to remove the spec from another persons' ..................Nonsense. All these half baked doctors will never learn let alone mind there business. Rubbish!

Who are these people causing trouble here? OP has always given good solutions to issues raised and have also informed people to go for test or seek a specialist intervention where necessary. She is making impact in her own little way. U guys shuld make your suggestions politely as no one knows it all or u get the fuckoff!

Hahahahahahahaha.......Very Very Funny post. U guys shuld read it well to the end

Incognito Quant: Why is it so difficult for some to accept the basic truth. Nobody is against collaboration. If you study how the art of Medicine has evolved over the last 2000yrs you would appreciate collaboration but from the right perspective.
Doctors are not against Nurses, pharmacist, lab scientist nor physiotherapist. If a Doctor opens a hospital wont he employ Nurses, lab scientist, pharmacist and the rest others for the hospital to work? But lets face the basic fact: it is a doctor that opens a clinic or a hospital.
The healthcare system has different parts just like the body. Now for the body to work would you put the hand where the head is suppose to be

There are some misinformed individuals that are desperately trying to misinform the public. NMA has the best interest of the industry but want things done the appropriate way. It is ignorant to say that NMA is not bordered with the current health challenges in the country. Try and read NMA reports in the last one year.

It is pathetic to see others trying to wage a war at us, Super Eagles don't play against the Falcons

IF NMA isn't against collaboration, den y r dey protesting against d JOHESU court ruling dat allowed d skipin from CONHESS 10 to 12 and the comencement of consultancy for other competent health profesionals? CONHESS 11 never existed abnitio so stoping d skipin from 10 to 12 was legally wrong and even d law court ruled in favour of JOHESU or is NMA sayin dat a competent court of jurisdiction is stupid?
I hav desperately tried to reason along wit NMA but i Seriously see no logic in the strike. I bliv dat Physicians r inteligent & rational ppl and I dnt want to think otherwise but d NMA is making me difer my opinion.

That is the standard pay for physicians in public hospitals stop deceiving yourself that article is very well correct it is crystal clear or are you denying the fact that a consultant earns above 500,000 or that a registrar earns above 200,000. Its pointless arguing with you anyway you must be one of those egocentric NMA members refusing to harken to good reason and blinded by greed. Everything I have posted is the fact. I have my sources but ofcourse any point raised will be false to you. All you want is money and pride, typical of the NMA. A salary raise of 1million per month will still not be enough for you guys afterall you still have other health workers to contend with. Let's watch as the drama unfolds.
May God bless Nigeria

Thank God the internet and newspapers are there for everyone to read. Nigerians are not foolish the link below will give u an insight to the salary of medical doctors as at 2011.

http://www.vanguardngr.com/2011/02/lagos-approves-n700000-for-doctors/

I hav great respect for the medical profesion but the NMA is destroying the good image of medicine with greed,egocentrism and cheap blackmail. May God Bless Nigeria.

Let truth be told.yes our health system is crap but Is that realy wat NMA is fighting for? A house officer is equivalent to a level 10 in civil Service and is paid upto 180 thousand naira,a resident doctor earns between 200 to 300 thousand and a consultant earns more than 500 thousand. It takes 4-6 years on the average to bcome a consultant after graduating and there are some Consultants that earn as high as 800thousand to 1million. Physicians earn relatively better than any other person in this country on the average, despite the economic hardship.Therefore calling for a raise in earning is just outrageous. A house officer(who is under training) earns twice the earnings of a lab scientist(a full time staff). NMA is just not being sincere if their strike action is based solely on the state of our delapitating hospitals,I would have understood but requesting for a raise in earning?! That's too selfish of them and please consultancy is not for doctors alone in europe and the USA, there are consultant Nurses and pharmacists. The society is now recognising the vital roles of other health profesionals and until the NMA drops its egoistic attitude and partner with other stakeholders of the health sector, the sector will remain in shambles. May God Bless Nigeria.
