WORLD EXCLUSIVE: Buhari has cancer —London doctors By News Express on 08/06/2016 Share on Views: 3,020 President Muhammadu Buhari has been diagnosed with cancer, according to sources at the London hospital where he reportedly underwent medical check-up. The Nigerian leader arrived in London on Monday (June 6) on a 10-day vacation, his Spokesman Femi Adesina announcing a day in advance: “During the holiday, he will see an E.N.T. specialist for a persistent ear infection. The President was examined by his Personal Physician and an E.N.T Specialist in Abuja and was treated. Both Nigerian doctors recommended further evaluation purely as a precaution.” A source told News Express this morning: “President Buhari went for check-up hours after he arrived in London. The hospital has discovered the cause of Mr President’s illness to be cancer of the ear and brain. Let us start praying.” The source, who is well connected in government circles, gave the name of the hospital as Royal Hospital London. He said he was given the information by medical sources at the hospital who have been his longtime friends. Just yesterday the news filtered in that Buhari has also been battling “a terrible cough” and may need to spend more than 10 days in London to enable him seek adequate medical treatment. Mr. Adesina, however, continues to insist that the President “is fit as a fiddle.” • Photo shows President Buhari. Source News Express Posted 08/06/2016 06:28:48 AM Share on Latest News.

Yet your president had to go get treatment for Menieres disease in london. How many of you bothered to read the content of the Communique on why the strike. What will it take the government to fulfill their own part of the MOU.

Health / Anambra Community To Become City Of Medical Research. by emmaliver(m): 12:10pm On May 24, 2016 |
Anambra Community to Become City of Medical
Research
Posted: 24/May/2016
The ongoing Medical Research Centre at
Umuchukwu community in Orumba South Local
Government, Anambra State, would soon turn
the obscure locality to a city of knowledge. On
completion of the 15-storey building project,
funded solely by Dr Godwin Maduka, the Chief
Executive Officer and Medical Director of the
Las Vegas Pain Institute and Medical Centre,
the largest pain treatment centre in Nevada,
USA, the rural community will become the hub
of medical research in the country and African
continent.
Dr Maduka, an adjunct clinical Professor of
Anesthesiology, Pain Management and Surgery,
Touro University College of Osteopathic
Medicine, Nevada, USA, tasted poverty during
his childhood after the death of his father. He
struggled through high school on the meagre
income provided by his mother, a widow. Like a
child destined to rule, he conquered poverty by
dint of hardwork, and bagged three doctorate
degrees from Havard University.
The high-rise building, which will serve as the
Medical Research Centre, the first of its kind in
the country, was at 80 per cent completion
stage when Campus Sun visited Umuchukwu
community recently. A close aide to Dr Maduka
said the centre would be equipped with state-
of-the-art facilities in medical science, to assist
students in clinical training, as well as provide
quality resource materials for lecturers and
researchers.
Campus Sun learnt that the edifice, when
completed, would also serve as the temporary
site for the College of Medicine, Anambra State
University. A formal request has been sent to
the appropriate authority to consider the
befitting structure for the temporary site of the
state university, where medical students would
be exposed to modern equipment in medicine
and pharmacy.
To ensure a delightful campus life for staff and
students, a four-storey building, with 40 flats,
located few metres away from the research
centre, has been completed to serve as
residential quarters. In addition, a modern guest-
house, furnished to taste, is also ready for use
within the premises. A gigantic water plant,
constructed by Maduka, supplies water to the
community, even as more structures are being
developed on the expansive hectares of land
that would make the area a campus of first
choice.
The legal adviser to Dr Maduka, Ray Onyegu,
expressed optimism that Umuchukwu would
soon become a university town. According to
him, the Medical Research Centre would water
the ground for a private university that would
raise the bar in medical education and
healthcare in the country. He described Dr
Maduka as a philanthropist, driven by the
passion to transform the rural Umuchukwu
community to a modern city.
“Ultimately this is going to be a university town.
His interest is in the area of preventive health.
He wants to establish a university that would
have a strong presence in preventive health”, he
said.
Campus Sun learnt that the ongoing
Umuchukwu Medical Research Centre, when
completed, would be modeled after the Las
Vegas Pain Institute and Medical Centre, the
largest and most comprehensive pain treatment
practice group in Nevada, USA. The facility in
the USA is widely respected as the premier,
one-stop destination for pain treatment and
relief, where teams of experts in pain medicine,
physical therapy, radiology, and wellness work
together to decrease pain using the latest
technologies and research.
Onyegu, who is also the
President and Chief Executive
Officer, Socio-Economic
Rights Initiative, a human
rights advocacy group, explained that
Umuchukwu community has the attractions of a
university town, with an expansive serene
environment spread on the outskirts of the
bustling Awka capital. He said crime has been
reduced in the community to zero level, with Dr.
Maduka donating four two-storey buildings to
serve as police barrack, patrol vehicles, a
bungalow for officers’ mess and another one-
storey building to serve as an operational base
for the men of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad
(SARS). In addition to these is another modern
structure duly completed for the Nigeria
Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC).
With several landmark projects already
completed by Maduka in the community, such
as: Magistrate Court and the ongoing High
Court, modern civic centre, Umuchukwu has
become a gold fish that cannot hide. It was
gathered that Dr. Maduka’s foundation also
attracted the attention of the former Governor,
Peter Obi, to the deplorable state of local roads
in the community, and volunteered to bear the
50 percent cost of construction. This
humanitarian gesture moved Obi, who during his
visit to the community was overwhelmed by the
laudable development in the area and
constructed the Owerre-Ezukala, Umuchukwu-
Ogbunka roads while in office.
The President General, Umuchukwu Progressive
Union (UPU), Hon Okechukwu Nwele, said
Maduka preaches education as the potent
weapon against poverty. Having tasted poverty,
he does not hesitate to wipe the tears of the
poor. According to him, he (Maduka) built the
Immaculate Conception International College, a
boarding secondary school where students from
Umuchukwu enjoy full scholarship from JS1 to
SS3. It is believed that out of 100 graduates in
the community, Maduka singlehandedly trained
90 percent and helped them secure jobs.
“In Umuchukwu community, money is no longer
a hindrance to anybody that wants to go to
school. Anybody that fails to go to school has
no excuse to give,” he said. “Last year, he
empowered 56 youths of the community with
N56m to support their business.”
One of the beneficiaries of the scholarship
programme at the secondary school level,
Ukaegbu John, said the package covers tuition,
hostel, feeding and books. Other beneficiaries
include: Ikedi Okafor (JS3), Nwabuisi Francis
(SS2), Ike Moses (SS2), among others.
During an earlier interview, Maduka, christened
as Lion of Africa by his people, said, “I am
praying to God to see Umuchukwu town more
than where they are now. Most of what I do,
though God takes control, that’s where my faith
comes in. I will like to see a major university
here; I will like to see some kind of factory or
some kind of establishments that will get people
gainfully employed. I will like to see state,
federal or international presence here because,
after all Umuchukwu, right now, have everything
an urban city has.
“We are very well-protected in terms of security.
SARS, Police, Civil Defence and army still patrol
here. We have motorable roads, good source of
water: you don’t have to dig long here to get a
borehole and, it’s still practically a city with
fresh air because of the vegetation. We don’t
have much pollution yet, and also as you know,
we have the tallest building in the whole of the
South-Eastern Nigeria, 15-storey high and 17-
decking tall. So, I think five years from now, of
course, it can’t go down, it has to go up from
what is on ground”.

Health / Alarming Rate Of HIV In University Of Zimbabwe. by emmaliver(m): 5:20pm On May 21, 2016 |
Almost Half Of University Of Zimbabwe Students
Are HIV Positive .
May 20, 2016
The University of Zimbabwe (UZ) has moved to
limit inter-residence visits between male and
female students after almost half of the students
who underwent HIV testing, tested positive.
According The Chronicle, the startling revelation
came as a result of voluntary HIV testing that
took place at Zimbabwe’s oldest tertiary
institution, with 47% of the students testing
positive for the virus.
Confirming the results, UZ Vice Chancellor Levi
Nyagura said that criticism of his management
style would not deter him from limiting contact
between male and female students as well as
strongly advising against promiscuity.
“The grim statistics of sexually transmitted
diseases at the institution have forced us to have
a limit for inter-residence visits between female
and male students. We have consulted lots of
parents and all of them do not want to promote
promiscuity by allowing students to enjoy married
lifestyles by staying with their girlfriends in the
halls of residence,” Nyagura said.
Jimmy Wilford, Director of SayWhat, an
organisation set to raise awareness around HIV,
expressed concern over Nyagura’s stance on the
matter, claiming that his heavy-handedness could
send out the wrong message due to some
students who may have been born with the
disease.
The development came after recent claims that
students at Zimbabwe’s Midlands State University
(MSU) had exhibited reckless sexual behaviour,
leading to an increase in the prevalence of HIV at
the institution.
According to The Herald, Mambewu Shumba,
Provincial Co-ordinator for National Aids Council
Midlands, condemned the allegedly aggressive
sexual behavior of MSU students, claiming that
they were a major contributor of an increase in
HIV prevalence in the Gweru area of the country.
