Sincere9gerian: I think he allowed himself to be distracted by the PDP versus APC politics. He was more like an APC chieftain

iamord: well you are right.. this present government has been very corrupt . and seem to have poor economist and thinkers.. well I believe that what ever decision will be in the interest to suite the country.. so with time there will still be a way out.. but at this stage I am tired of saying that a lot of the thing s we import can be home grown and processed.. cos the people in power seem to be deaf and blind.. but I am optimistic that Ghana will still cone through. . speaking on leveraging on the support of Nigeria.. so u see how we all behave on naira land.. I believe this is how the ECOWAS is... just that its formal and sugar coated.. there is no unity amongst us.. what's the state of intra trade between us both . we are both fighting on the line there is no hope on that.. till Africans learn to unite to fight one common enemy . . for now its on s Oyo level

davitogreat: So what do you think happens to ecowas now?

Do you think nigeria's objection to the epa will stop the other countries from signing it?

the one thing that worries me is if other ecowas countries sign the agreement it could have negative effects on the little intra ecowas trade we have.

iamord: I guess as much but on the Ghana case the present government have done nothing but wreck the system and it seems they got no back up .. so they have no choice but to go with it.. only if another political steps in or Ghanaians put more pressure on the government

Daviddoma: fake news

By Michael Olugbode

The deadly Boko Haram sect has taken over another Borno town after the successful capture of Damboa about a month ago.

The new territory under the control of the terrorist group, is hilly Gwoza town which succumbed to the superior power of the Islamic fundamentalist group on Tuesday.

A large detachment of the sect were said to have completely overran the town and causing the residents to flee into the hills and neighbouring Cameroonian villages.

A resident of the area that called from one of the hills he had fled to with some other residents of the town who spoke to journalists anonymously, said the Boko Haram terrorists besieged the town in many utility vehicles and Armoured cars.

BedLam: The worst pattern of slavery is offering yourself for the chains! I don't know what heads these leaders have, while I can discern Francophone countries has been lobbied by France, the case seems more opaque for me to see through why Ghana and co would want to tie them selves down! We are no longer in the era of physical chains, it's economic and mental slavery!

You meet topic for middle, you just jump conclude.

dabossman: You just ruined your argument with the bolded. No one is ordinary. Those ordinary passengers are the patients who pay the hospital bills that pay doctor's salaries. Those air hostesses may just be the ones to save your life if you ever end up in an air mishap (God forbid). You can make your point without belittling others.

delishpot: Chei, gone are the days. I am a new person now.
For your mind, between doctors and nurses, who handles a sick patient more?
Like I always do, I will direct you back to my very first post.
You are a doctor? I pity your patients Sha. You mean, quick to insult and curse. You do not hold monopoly to foul mouth you know?
I go just jump you pass.

delishpot: They know the symptoms. Once someone presents with it, they know. What is the big deal in wearing some coveralls, gloves and nose masks when handling a patient for the first time?
Yes passengers can ask to be paid for the airliner exposing them to the disease by taking a sick man to sit with them. Or are they not important to their families too? I believe doctors salary takes into consideration all risks involved in their jobs too. Any job involving travel has that covered as risk. So I am sure a frequently traveling doctor will have that same risk allowee a stewardess in a plan has. Which the ticketing officer does not have even though they both work for same company.
Doctors handle sick people which means that is their job. How else do you want to be paid again for special risk again? It's your responsibility to know that you could catch the disease from your client.
A doctor was telling me once when I complained about his nurses not wearing gloves when checking patients and esp I hate how they all touch healthy babies and admire them just after checking a sick person.
He said. Look if your child won't be sick he won't be sick even if all the sick people in the world should touch him. It's God that protects. I was like . Coming from a medical doctor o.
So he doesn't care to protect himself. If I work with bees, and I choose not to protect myself against stings and get stung should I ask for special pay cos of that?
Yes it's sad when it happens. If you asking for increase in pay all well and good but not because you are exposed to risk. Just like soldiers. If you are sent to war you deserve the extra pay but your salary as a soldier is there cos of the fact you risk your life as a soldier. Special duties/ assignments withing your field of practice attracts the special pay
A doctor sent specifically to handle Ebola cases can ask for any amount he deems fit. It's a risk he is taking a risk in going to handle that case. But not to ask for special pay just because you feel the need to.

delishpot: Should the passenger's also ask to be paid? Due to travelling hazards? Should the hostesses and other workers at the airport ask to be paid too due to occupational hazards. Can the nurses ask to be paid more too? Doctors are not the only ones dealing with risks here. They are even better equipped to protect themselves unlike the others. I. E air hostesses and school teachers.
