Exactly how will being NLC president help JOHESU to intimidate doctors? Cuz that's what this is all about isn't it? Fight for supremacy?
Nigerians are so petty. And I'm talking about ALL Nigerians.

Even US doctors can't fight the will of God. Take heart bro. Echi ozo, amuta ozo.

Dad, if you're on NL, ntooor! Shey I wan be musician u no gree. Ntooor

Oga when did you changed name because during our time, it was "OKOMOG SOLDIERS". But wait, Anambra State has had tremendious improvement in the aspect of Light. I miss those happening things in "up lagos".

U don't understand what I mean by Lantern day.

chinex276:
ohdeh

Name-calling. Definitely not an Okofian. And definitely doesn't understand what I mean by Lantern Day...pity...

Happy Lantern Day to my fellow Okofians.
Like if you understand.

I have a friend whose BBM name (and nickname) is that of a popular black por.nstar. One of the most beautiful girls in our class, but till now she still complains that no serious guy has come her way. How will the serious guys come when you share the same name as someone who fucksmen on camera for a living?

Yeah, they're really upping their game. More power to their elbows. Until Buhari comes and bans Nollywood....except of course the Hausa section
Quote me and die!!!

Northern traditional rulers are the real royalty wallahi. Not my village Igwe wey I dey see with singlet and chewing stick every morning for front of him house. Here in Igboland, the real royalty are the rich, the wealthy and the bucks-up, and then everybody else is a king. In his own house!!!

Igbo enwero eze!!!
Igbo kwenu!!!

And the daughter shall become the mother.
Let's hope she doesn't eventually fall for the American deception and start to alter this natural beauty with bleaching and plastic surgery.

I won't get to a quack because I was even the one that produced the drug, you grab that ? so I don't need to consult a doctor to give me doses, virtually most drugs in Nigeria are OTC and they are suppose to be PO , just the few expensive and less popular ones are kEpt Well it's a talk for another day.

Lol. Let's hope you're not unconscious then. Or on the operation table at the mercy of the anaesthetist. Can I hear u say God forbid?

zeezahbee:
What are you talking about? so you believe checking a book is not a crime. you need to be flog, so even if the doctor is in the operating room, he will also check a book for step by step procedures.

Come and flog me make I see. I pray u don't land into the hands of a "confident quack" who will confidently give u an overdose, like 125mg of digoxin instead of emmm...emmm...I dey come make I go check my book.

I "served" (hehehe #batchA14 #goodtogo ) in a State Hospital in Osun state, and I can attest to what is being said here.
1. Various State Hospitals, including my PPA, were earmarked for "renovation" in July 2013. The gov said they would be refurbished in 3 months. Then they demolished almost all the structures. And left them like that! Till now!!! D thing favour me sha, no too much work, so I had time on my hands, which I put to good use
2. The government fronts a charade called "free health services", claiming to give free drugs and stuff. What they really do is give 1 tablet when the doctor prescribes maybe 2 a day for a week. And of course there's the issue of healthy people coming with feigned sicknesses just to collect free medicines. And if u just mention "go outside and buy..." to a patient, he'll go ballistic on you, saying Aregbe told them it's free health, even accusing u of hoarding the drugs. Tomorrow, if WHO talks about drug resistance...
3. The most painful part is the fact that these people fail to see beyond the lies. It's like they're under some kinda spell. even the health workers who haven't been paid for months and who are forced to work under these deplorable conditions, still go "Aregbe is trying". I'm like WHATTHEFUCK!!!
Can't wait for 19th February. Ipinle Osun ti re mi. (Osun State don taya me...hope I said it well )

You might be allergic to some chemicals in the rice. And by the way, if rice causes ur eyes to swell, why do you continue eating it? (na wa for Nigerians sef!)
Secondly (and this is more sinister, I'm afraid) you might have some kind of kidney pathology going on. Pretty much still in the early stages of course. For that you'd need to see a doctor, run some tests and stuff.
And then there's always google!

INDEED I HAVE BEEN WONDERING WHAT KIND OF COUNTRY NIGERIA IS. EVERYTHING IS JUST MOVING DISORDERLY WITH NOBODY DIRECTING THEM TO MOVE ARIGHT. TALKING ABOUT OUR HEALTH SECTOR....POLITICS HAVE EATEN DEEP INTO HEALTH SECTOR THAT THE EFFECT IS VERY MUCH TELLING ON THE POOR PATIENTS IN ALL NIGERIAN HOSPITALS. WHAT ARE THESE POLITICS GOING ON ALWAYS BETWEEN DOCTORS AND OTHER HEALTH WORKERS ESPECIALLY MEDICAL LAB. SCIENTISTS. THOUGH AM A BARRISTER BUT I REMEMBERED VIVIDLY WHEN THE FIGHT WAS BETWEEN DOCTORS AND PHARMACISTS, DOCTORS AND NURSES, DOCTORS AND RADIOGRAPHERS, DOCTORS AND PHYSIOTHERAPISTS, NOW IT'S DOCTORS AND MEDICAL LAB. SCIENTISTS. WHY CAN'T ACTUALLY NIGERIAN DOCTORS FACE THEIR WORK WITHOUT THIS THEIR CONSTANT FIGHT WITH OTHER HEALTH WORKERS. THE TRUTH SHOULD BE TOLD PLS, WHAT ARE THE PATHOLOGISTS CLAIMING THAT THEY KNOW ABOUT LABORATORY ANALYSIS THAN THE MEDICAL LAB. SCIENTIST THAT JUST SPENT 5YEARS +1 READING ONLY THE COURSE AND U THAT MIGHT HAVE DONE IT AS A CRASH PROGRAM FOR PROBABLY ONE YEAR WANT TO GO AND HEAD THEM. SINCE I HAVE KNOWN DOCTORS.....IT'S BEEN ALL ABOUT HEADING THIS PEOPLE AND HEADING THAT PEOPLE. I SEE POMPOSITY IN OUR NIGERIAN DOCTORS WHEN MANY OF THEM ACTUALLY NEED TO GO BACK TO SCHOOL....HAVE MET ONE DIAGNOSING ME LOOKING AT TEXTBOOK. I AM DIRECTLY TALKING TO OUR NIGERIAN DOCTORS .....REDUCE UR EGO, I THINK THAT IS UR PROBLEM. SINCE U HAVE UR DEPARTMENT, PLS HEAD IT AND LEAVE OTHER HEALTH WORKERS TO DO THEIR JOB PLZ. THE MAIN CHAIN OF HOSPITAL CONSULTATION SHOULD WORK IN HARMONY: DOCTOR - NURSE- PHARMACIST- MEDICAL LAB. SCIENTIST. THE FIGHT BETWEEN THE PATHOLOGIST AND MEDICAL LAB. SCIENTIST MAKES IT LOOK AS IF PATHOLOGISTS ARE CONFUSED ABOUT THEIR JOB DISCRIPTION.....BCOZ I CANT IMAGINE WHY A PATHOLOGIST IS TRYING TO RUN A TEST HE HAS NO KNOWLEDGE
ABOUT. IF THEY ARE PAYING A DOCTOR, 400K, LET THEM PAY A MEDICAL LAB. SCIENTIST 300K, SINCE THE MONEY IS NOT COMING FROM ANY OF U BUT IT'S OUR NAIJA MONEY. BOTH GROUPS ARE TRYING.

I believe someone who is willing to consult a textbook before making a diagnosis is more concerned about your welfare than his ego. Learn to appreciate people's sacrifices and humility; you'll live longer. If him no look book now, come give u headache merecine for gono u go start to dey complain. Nigerians can be insatiable sometimes!!!

Creamish:
Rily luved their "Drummer Boy" rendition. Awesome n Congrats!

Their "Carol of the Bells" video goes viral every Christmas. Very lovely video. And Kevin really "owned" the song, gesticulation, attitude...perfect.

I've always been a big K.O fan. Congrats to him.
*in Julius' (Everybody Hates Chris) voice* Ma Man!!!

They are in order. It's all part of the national moi-moi.
Talmbout "one for my editor, one for my cameraman, one for my dog, one for my chicken..."

My professor of Neurosurgery was once a Kegite. Not to mention the mini-kegite club that was formed at NYSC camp in Osun (Block K pipo, u know urselves). Fun dudes. RIP.

May God bless my hustle. And my girlfriend Ngozi.

Ehen what's the topic about again sef?

Your best bet is a post NYSC doctor. Because unless it's a locum, you won't get a doctor who has successfully maintained a job in Abuja for 5 years to leave his job. So if one can be convinced that this is not a scam, one can arrange a meet between you and a couple of doctors who just finished serving in Abuja.

That's settled. MSC in embryology, that's where I'm going. Shikena.

Nigeria. Where killers are defended, praised, worshipped even. *spits*

Please let's not just stop at lamenting about the health system and calling him a charlatan, from afar. WHO KNOWS HOW TO ARREST HIS ASSSS!!!

For what shall it profit a union if after 3 months' strike, all they get is "practically pleading" and "direct all the relevant ministries to issue circulars"?

And can he kindly tell us the "teriary health institution" he "ROLLED" into?

Funfreak:
That is the problem most Nigerians are having.. "discrimination" which is absolutely bad.. at least this young boy is doing something helping others and non of his patients have sued him or something don't we have many medical doctors out there that do not do their job perfectly that patients often die in their care? .. According to the interview I even learnt the boy has a foundation for helping people.
And i am not sure you guys have contributed much at helping others.. People like you guys are the ones who has nothing to contribute to the development of the nation but condemn I hope all changes whenever change comes in Febuhari...

If this is the kind of change Buhari is planning to bring, where children with school cert are given "licenses" to practice medicine and open up pregnant women's wombs and all whatnot, then I pray none of my family is in the country come May 29.

When someone is "brain dead", they're actually legally dead. Thanks to technology, their bodily functions- respiration, circulation etc - can be sustained for as long as it takes the family and society to come to terms with the fact that they're not coming back. And then you just pull the plug.

Not saying it's true about the babe sha.

And yes, a very good friend of mine graduated from Med&Surg at Unizik at 21, so I know it's possible. And I know age has little to do with it (little, not nothing).
