They have turned us in refugees in our own country. I beg, this must stop ASAP.

This is just disheartening to watch! Nigeria really went backwards.

Praise, my soul, the King of Heaven;
To His feet thy tribute bring.
Ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven,
Evermore His praises sing:
Praise Him, praise Him, alleluia!
Praise the everlasting King.

Praise Him for His grace and favor
To our fathers in distress;
Praise Him still the same as ever,
Slow to chide, and swift to bless.
Praise Him, praise Him, alleluia!
Glorious in His faithfulness.

Fatherlike He tends and spares us,
Well our feeble frame He knows;
In His hands He gently bears us,
Rescues us from all our foes.
Praise Him, praise Him, alleluia!
Widely yet His mercy flows.

Frail as summer’s flow’r we flourish,
Blows the wind and it is gone;
But while mortals rise and perish,
Our God lives unchanging on.
Praise Him, praise Him, alleluia!
Praise the high Eternal One!

Angels, help us to adore Him,
Ye behold Him face to face;
Sun and moon, bow down before Him;
Dwellers all in time and space,
Praise Him, praise Him, alleluia!
Praise with us the God of grace.

I'm happy for him . he would have died if he had remained in Nigeria , Nigeria Doctors can only treat fever -malaria and typhoid .
no insult intended ,but Nigerian doctors killed my beloved sister and destroyed my mother's leg.
:-(

Sorry about your experience but you went to the wrong doctors. It is the same Nigerian trained doctors who form a good percentage of the doctors abroad.

I can tell you outright that there is no way you will combine the two. However if you are not sure of getting into med school, your decision to defer your admission into Pharmacy is wise. Pharmacy is even more lucrative than medicine in Nigeria now as it stands so it is a great course to study. However, if you get into medicine, put your head down and study very hard for the next few years, you can easily relocate to a foreign country where you will be very well paid and you can pursue your post-graduate studies there. But secure the Pharmacy as a back-up now.

LMAO, Rita is 45 !
I knew her way back in Asaba, around 2002 and 2003 when she was still auditioning for roles with her then best friend Genevieve Nnaji.
She's not married because she's a hardcore lesbian.If you know her like you said ,you'd have known all these ,including the disgraced politician she was philandering with in Ghana.
You're right though, she's a very good person, generous and kind hearted.

I am not an insider to her love life but I know for fact that a lot of women who went to all girls boarding schools in Nigeria are lesbians. It doesn't stop them from getting married and having kids so that cannot be the sole reason. As for her age, I still doubt it because she was quite young when I met her but anything is possible.

Threebear:
Keep waiting till you hit menopause, forty two is your football age ,we know you are close to fifty.
There will be a time, when your heavy make ups and skin conditioners won't cover your wrinkles, then you'd lose your pay magas ,then you'd understand the meaning of loneliness, without a husband or child to call your own.

I knew Rita and her brother personally over 15yrs ago. She has always been a very sweet and mature person and that is her real age. If she wanted to lie about it, she could easily pass for 35 but unlike Omotola and others, she didn't. Some people are not lucky in love no matter how good they are while others are suffering in the name of marriage and just putting up a face for the public. Some are also not destined to marry but that does not take away the value they bring to this world. She entertains people relieving their stress and she gives to charity so she has been a blessing whether you think so or not.

There has always been a carnival in Lagos island at least 2ce a year because there are several families with Brazillian heritage who brought such culture here but it was rather small scale. I attended some in the early 90's.

CharleyBright:
Hmmmm, Every state now into Carnival.... And all scheduled for December.
Cross Rivers State started it, and the Calabar carnival is still the best and will remain so.
If you doubts, dont be a Doubting Thomas. attend the Calabar Carnival ...and clear your doubts.

I have actually, except for Punisher which I'm yet to start. They are good but definitely not as captivating as DC's series. There is something slow paced about many of Marvel's series (Jessica Jones and Iron Fist,
for example) and some episodes can be rather dull. Even the Defenders was rather blase. DC tries to keep you on the edge of your seat each week.

Sultan5:
Ma'am sorry but have you watched the punisher? Daredevil or even Jessica Jones? How about Agents of shield? DC doesn't rule shit in the small screen, only the flash n Gotham are really doing it for me.

DC definitely rules the small screen. Just watch the latest cross over series 'Crisis on Earth X', a 4 part combo of Super girl, Arrow, The Flash and Legends of tomorrow. Awesome. Marvel is trying with Runaways and Inhumans but DC is certainly better.

When it comes to movies though, it's more 50-50.

There haven't been wild snakes in Apapa since the 1960's, even with all the heavy rat infestations and the rats drastically reduced in number since measures were put in place by the government to counter Lassa fever last year. What is attracting them or did it escape from someone's private zoo? They should investigate properly before more of them enter people's homes, please.

MhizzAJ:
HML to them
But must they do pre-wedding photo shoot...Can't they just get married in peace

Because they don't meet Hollywood's standards of beauty? They have the right to celebrate their love as much as anyone else.

lyrikalmoi:
Hello, i take it that You're a dermatologist. No?
..cos i think i might need medical opinion on something.

Send me a pm

Why are you lying? It rained lightly on Thursday and moderately on Saturday afternoon. You look like you're trying to thwart the truth.

HITdemUP:
Another plot by a disgruntled Ipob sympathiser to tarnish Buhari government. I leave at old warehouse Road in apapa not far away from Liverpool and it hasn't rain for some weeks now, this picture was probably taken during the rainy season. When will Ipobs learn to desist from conveying cheap and baseless propagandas to discredit the federal government ?

Afterwards, they will come back to buy champagne to wash their hands. Lagos big boys.

They added Apapa to the list. Can you imagine? Knowing fully well that the gridlock is currently almost impossible to drive through. Even at almost midnight as I type this, there is still traffic.

I also knew him personally through the church over 10yrs ago. He was a very nice and humble man. May he rest in peace.

Please, for future reference, Rotary International brings in foreign trained doctors and conducts free surgeries every last Thursday - Saturday in September. We just concluded a few weeks ago. Those in Lagos can meet us at the National Stadium and yes, you can also travel down from other parts of Nigeria.

It's back up now. I just successfully completed a transaction with Quickteller.

Nice job. Keep pursuing your dreams and the sky will be your footstool.

They met on the set of "Black Love".

America needs to control guns. This so called doctor must have had a lot of mental issues before now. Known criminals and nutjobs should not have access to guns.

Old Joe!

debspauly:
well his family is OK ..but his mother hates me .

Hmmm! Red flag. Try and get close to her and find out if it's something you are doing that is annoying her. It is really not advisable to marry a man whose mother hates you but you can work on the relationship with her. In your case, I would say, give it some time. Don't get married right away. Being a teenager is not an issue. At 18, you are old enough and can have your kids early while still having a career. The issue is just that you need to be careful who you marry because it sets the tone for your whole life.

debspauly:
but ..I wanna get an education first ..like get more aware of my environment ..b4 ..I consider him.

The choice is yours, dear, but he might not wait for you to finish school. Just put it in prayer and make sure you meet his family first. They can be a big deciding factor.

debspauly:
and he is not extremely wealthy ..but the little he has he shares with me without hesitation.

Are you in school or doing your own business? That is the only thing I would like you to make sure you accomplish before getting married. Now is not the time to be overly dependent on a man. If you pray and you are comfortable with him, go ahead. 15yrs is not too much at all. It will be very difficult for you to find a boy of under 20 who wants to get married unless his parents are forcing him.

debspauly:
he treats me like his age mate ..and we roll well together ...the guy is good in all aspect ..just the age . if he was younger I would have married him sharp sharp.

Age is but a number, dear. if you find someone you flow with like that, don't hesistate.

SirVintageCock:
Do you really know what medical Negligence is? That woman left out some salient points as this her story is filled with holes.
I pray the hospital sues her for defamation.

Seriously? They wouldn't have a case. At the very least, they failed to communicate the patient's condition and the treatment plan they were undertaking to his next of kin. The mom would have had some closure if a sympathetic member of staff was even trying to answer her questions or address her concerns.

I personally know Prince and the AFCO executives. They have their hearts in the right place but they are big dreamers. It's not a scam but let's call it extreme overambition.

Madam, I am so sorry for your loss. It is indeed a tragedy.

Duro Soleye is a very reputable and old hospital with a moderately high client flow. If they were so terrible, they wouldn't have such patronage. I cannot tell what your child was suffering from but I can say there was some mismanagement if your story is accurate. The oxygen tank is normally taped like that to prevent any leakages from the connector as it often wears out with age but that does not prevent it from working.
The doctors, however, failed to
1. fully enlighten you about your son's diagnosis and inform you about his progress or deterioration constantly.
2. the consultant(s) in charge of your case were not reachable. Knowing how critical he was, they should have been on standby.
3. those doctors on call do not have any excuse, tired or not, to refuse to attend to anyone as long as they have not handed over. We are trained to do up to 72hr shifts if necessary.
4. The nurses are not to go to sleep on night shift. They may doze at their desks but never retire. They are also to chart the infusions and oxygen, monitoring when they are about to finish so they can change them.

At least, for the time I was in private practice, this was the standard. I know there can be no pain worse than losing a child, how much more the only son you have. God is still on the throne and He will surely comfort you.

You're right but my annoyance was that I strongly advised her against it but she refused to hear.

Collins10:
I feel so sorry for your friend...

But that part where you said you no see the money again is not neccessary na. I mean it is of total irrelevance to the credence of your story.
