The beautiful ones might not be born yet but certainly the foolish ones have been born and they are in Ekiti....

1) Considering how people must have been admitted into that medical college in Eksu...what were you expecting??

2) If you guys could do better than Eksu, nothing stops you people from writing Jamb and applying in other medical colleges in the country...it is that easy...

3) Your governor is not your problem...but he can't be absolved of certain blames tending towards mismanagement and low funding of the school.

In all,I feel your pain,but you people seem not to know the value of time and the years you are wasting just because you want to become a doctor...

in other news,osun state University had this sort of accreditation problem and the governor (ogbeni aregbesola) flew them out to Ukraine to continue their studies....i don't know the arrangements he had with the students then but those students have graduated now...

abeg, you people should stop making noise,NUC is very strict on accreditation and would not dole out accreditations generously...we have too many quack doctors in the country..

Your takes is well understood. It is highly unfortunate no single university in Nigeria should lure any average thinking medic away from one institution to another medical school in terms of standard of teaching and practices as all are below world standard. More so, same medical education curriculum is generally applicable to all medical schools in Nigeria. Notwithstanding, the time being wasted is my fear.

All the above mentioned names are never close to be called Leaders but mere Political Office Holders.

I want to buy a Laptop on jumia but I am becoming confuse each time I ran across its specifications. Especially, about Intel Celeron. I only understood the meaning of RAM, HDD, DUAL OR QUAD CORES.

I needed a Laptop at maximum of N100000 with RAM of 4GB, 500 HDD, Intel Processors. HP, DELL OR LENOVO

Apple



Buy from amazon.com

100k, Apple may not be an option

Hi, Folks
I am Planning to secure a new laptop very soon . Which of these Laptops have highest battery life, I mean which last longer after a single full charge ?
Moreover, is it advisable to make purchase online e.g from konga or jumia.

Paris Saint-Germain lost their perfect start to the Ligue 1 season, as they were held to a goalless draw at Montpellier on Saturday.

It was the first game PSG played this season without world’s most expensive player, Neymar.

The Brazilian was left out of the squad, to recover fully from a toe problem, ahead of next week’s Champions League clash against Bayern Munich.

In his absence, PSG lacked inspiration in attack against a stubborn Montpellier side, playing in a 5-4-1 formation.

Kylian Mbappe had their best chances, but the 18-year-old was profligate in front of goal, as Unai Emery’s men could only extend their lead at the top of the table over reigning champions Monaco by one point.

If you submitted your application, have you receive any updates from the Board and my concern is would there be invitation messages /mails for 2017 applicants to be eligible for the schedule interview in Lagos

I speculate this speech is genuine and not as widely said as fake.

By Eric Patrick,

President Muhammadu Buhari on Tuesday ​called for on restructuring of the United Nations.
In his speech to the UN Assembly, Buhari said how to restructure the world body should be priority number one.
Nothing that “several ideas are out there”, he added that what must be done is to get them together and agree on what works for majority of the people of the world.
His full speech below…

President of the United Nation’s General Assembly, Your Excellencies, Heads of States and governments, Distinguished Delegates, Ladies and Gentlemen.
On behalf of the government and people of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, I congratulate you, Mr. President, on your election to preside over the 72nd session of the United Nations’ General Assembly. I also wish to express my country’s appreciation to the Secretary General of the United Nations, Mr. Antonio Guterres, for his steady leadership and this body’s dedication to the search for a peaceful and equitable world through the charter of the United Nations.

Every year we gather here to deliberate on the affairs of the world. Sometimes we implement what we talked about and move humanity an inch closer to that ideal relationship as members of the world community.
At other times, we have our talks and end up not implementing anything to the disappointment of millions and millions of people around the world who look up to this body to provide leadership in a world that is constantly oscillating between advancement and doom.
In all of these, we often forget that what we have accomplished in the last 72 years is unprecedented in the annals of human history. The world may be badly governed, but the fact that there is a form of governance agreed upon by all is an accomplishment in and of itself. So, I congratulate us all.

Mr. President, as we say in Nigeria, he who does not look ahead remains behind. Our charge now is to aspire to make this world better for the next generation. We, the generation that knows how the world was before the United Nations was formed, must bequeath to those coming behind us a better United Nations that would be in a position to deal with the challenges of tomorrow. To accomplish that, we need to fast forward the reformation long proposed in this chamber.
​

To restructure or not to restructure is no longer the question – the United Nations must be restructured for it to remain relevant in years to come. How to restructure the United Nations should be our priority number one. Several ideas are out there. All that we need is to get them together and agree on what works for majority of the people of this world.
As a leader of one of the leading African nations, I want to see a United Nation’s Security Council that is expanded to have one or two African permanent members with veto powers. It is a fair thing to do – one that will benefit the world by giving it a chance for a more balanced outlook to matters of importance to us all. As we have learned in Nigeria, sometimes you need to change in order to remain the same. It is the first principle of renewal.

In the continent of Africa, the post-colonial era is going into a new phase. In another generation, there would not be any African alive who could remember when European powers once governed Africa. That emerging generation is creating new challenges for the African order left behind by the colonial powers.

My generation is managing that challenge with the hope of leaving behind nation states that are less prone to crisis. We cannot continue to pretend that conflicts that emerged as a result of our colonial heritage have been resolved. Across our continent, they are still there. In some cases, bad governance is exacerbating these conflict points.

Here are some of the things we are doing to make sure that we bequeath to the upcoming generations of Africans a continent that is healthy, wealthy and well grounded in law and order. We are close to enshrining in the African Union’s creed the fundamental principle of democracy, which says that a credible people’s mandate should determine who governs any nation across Africa. We are taking it a step further by pushing to make that mandate limited.

We believe that Africa has numerous talents and no man or woman should be in the leadership saddle for an inordinate time. We are also working hard to expand the African market and open it up for our people to benefit from the free flow of goods, services and knowledge across the continent. It is the only path to prosperity for over one billion people in Africa yearning for opportunities to show the world the potentials they have.

As Africans, we will continue to build partnerships across the world. As we stretch our hands out for friendship, we do so with the expectation that our hands would be met not with pity and charity but with respect and dignity. Africans have a lot to offer the world, not just its minerals and human potentials. We are committed to resetting that old perception with a new one that proclaims Africa as a land ready for business.

Those who have taken the steps to invest in Africa can attest to the mutual benefit that comes with it.
In areas of infrastructural developments, research and security, we urgently need a respectable and mutually beneficial partnership with the world. Integration of the continent and expansion of prosperity can only come when there are good roads, constant electricity, clean water and descent healthcare for our people. The United States government, The European Union, private investors and non-governmental organizations are getting involved in these ventures. Africa will continue to welcome the world in every enterprise that will uplift our people.

It is only when we add value and build capital that we will reduce the grim statistics of Africa’s child mortality rate from preventable deaths. It is only then that we can reduce deaths on the Mediterranean Sea of African youths running away from conflicts and poverty.
The challenge is ours. We accept the responsibility. As in the past, we know that we do well when we share skills and expertise. That was how we were able to work together with partners around the world to reduce the AIDS epidemic. That was how, in the last two decades, we were able to defeat diseases like polio, tuberculosis and ringworm in several parts of Africa.
Africans have always been appreciative of the assistance we receive. We have also paid back to the international community with our involvement in Peace Keeping missions across the world.

Mr. President, on matters of security, there is no gainsaying that when one part of the globe is insecure, all parts of the globe become potential victims of that insecurity. The activities of several extreme groups jeopardize not just the nation where they emanated but everyone far and in-between.

The free movement of fighters and weapons has all but made the issue of security a global problem. As we have learned in Nigeria, you compromise the security of the wh*** when components of the sum are not fully valued, appreciated and integrated with the wh***.
We in Africa have been partners in the quest for a secure world. We will continue to be committed to the mission until all threats to peace across the world are eliminated. In Nigeria, we have degraded the capability of the Boko Haram terrorist group.

We are on the path to eliminating the last of their safe heavens. We have also secured the release of some of our abducted Chibok Girls. We are working hard to secure the release of the rest and to finish the job of closing the Boko Haram chapter and get the North East of Nigeria back to a peaceful region that it used to be.
Along this line, Mr. President, we at the United Nations need to do more to bring about a more equitable world where a large group of people does not feel suppressed, undervalued and alienated. Last year, I talked about the need for Palestinians to have their own state. Progress has not been made on that matter in the past one year. It is one of those problems that we must not punt to another generation.

Any glaring unfairness, like the Palestinian case, diminishes our moral authority to preach and lecture the world on other cases. As we have learned in Nigeria, our stubborn self-righteousness blocks our ears from hearing the cry of those that we left on the fringe of society and blocks our eyes from seeing and reading the handwriting on the wall.

In the urgent matter of the nuclear stand off with North Korea, we hope that calm heads prevail. And as our ancestors say, that the disobedient fowl does not wait to be put into a pot of soup before it obeys. We in Africa hope that North Korea and, indeed, all the nations with nuclear weapons will hasten to eliminate them all.
We don’t aspire to have nuclear weapons in the continent of Africa, the cradle of mankind. We will preserve Africa in case the nuclear-armed nations of the world decide to destroy themselves in their so-called mutual assured destruction.
Should that happen, be assured that there will be a place in Africa for those of you who will be lucky enough to survive your self-inflicted annihilation. While we do not wish for that, we have this saying in Nigeria that, “na when soldier slap you, you go sabi say police na your friend.

Mr. President, Nigeria is always willing to work with the United Nations and other international organizations to advance human progress. May the United Nations continue on its challenging task of being an instrument for peace, and may the goals that this General Assembly “for peace and a decent life for all on a sustainable planet” be accomplished in our time.

Thank you all for listening.
Muhammadu Buhari,
President, Federal Republic of Nigeria

Oyo town is the second largest town in oyo state after Ibadan. It's easy to locate, take a bus from Ojoo or iwo road in Ibadan, the journey is less than 45mins. Make sure you alight at owode when you get to oyo, from there take bike to where you're going. Bike is the major means of transportation in oyo town.

Thanks sir

Please, I am in need of an assistant of any one here who can give me clear direction to a location in Oyo town. I was told Oyo town is a locality in Oyo State. If my instructor was right. I need help, the only place I knew in Oyo State is Ibadan.

I was told it is in a village

Can't tell. Try and apply. If ur course is among the dropdown list you should be fine

Medicine is not listed on the application portal but I found Medical Sciences . It is also appalling the maximum duration of course on the portal is 5 years against Medicine of 6 years which me made speculate medical students might be denied after all though I remain unconvinced the above justifications should not stop any medic from applying for the scholarship.

I hope this application is also meant for medical students.

I hope the fellow who shared this facebook post will today learn starting a sentence with 'am' is not uncommon about American English.

I will also advice you to purchase Lehniger principle of biochemistry for your boy. It is preferable to Vasudevan in some aspects majorly part 3 work. He can only read Harper's illustrated biochemistry topics if he have knowledge about those topics in other textbooks. Lehnigher is about #8,000 and you will never regret buying it for him.

I vividly remember I mocked my mates who purchased at the inception of our Year 2 in the College of Medicine but while siting for my first MB exam. I read Lehniger and I was happy I did. Even most brilliant lecturers in my school adviced against Indian Authors Textbooks for most students find it content too easy to cram but does not comprehend it.

Another reason medics failed biochemistry is not because they did not understand textbooks they read but they don't know how to answer questions to suit lecturers demands. Advice your boy that he needs to know how to provide answers to get full marks.

Another secret is that brilliant medics don't depend on a single textbooks for thorough understanding of biochemistry topics. Combination of Lehniger, Vasudevan, Charttejah and Lubert Stryer is ok. So I whenever he is thought any topic in-class, tell him to cross check each textbooks about this topic and conclude which one is best for him to read. It is not necessary he purchase hard copies of all these textbooks I mentioned, having one or two hard copies is ok then the rest as soft copies on his laptop or tablets. For example, the following topics are best illustrated in corresponding textbooks.

Enzymology - Lehniger
Biochemistry of Biomolecules - Charttejah & Lehniger
Vitamins - Vasudevan
DNA & RNA metabolism - Lehniger
Core & Intermediary Metabolism - Charttejah & Lehniger
Biochemistry of Special Senses - Lubert Stryer.
And so on. I highlighted all these to explain why I told you your son needs more than one biochemistry textbook to survive in the pre clinical

It cannot be overemphasize that your son must understand it is a different thing in the medical school to read and understand as well he must be wise in answering theory and mcq 's questions during exams

Majorly, ask God for wisdom, knowledge and understanding for your child while saying your prayers.

TONYE001:
Hello All, greetings.

Please, who knows why the splenic artery is tortuous (wave-like)?

I've been thinking of this...

I speculate you could have ask the significant of it being tortuous in nature.
Firstly, I will advice you to check an Atlas of Human Anatomy for better view of splenic artery which is a retreperitoneal vessel.

The splenic artery has branches which also supply other vital abdominal organs majorly the pancreas, the stomach and terminal branches into the spleen.
Nature made it turtous and fairly large in diameter of a short length to accumulate significant much volume of blood to the pancreas and spleen.

Cross check the diameter of the splenic artery and it terminal branches into the spleen. You could deduce it have to be tortuous to withhold the volume of blood from the celiac trunk otherwise, the spleen may be over perforated with blood beyond capacities of its red pulps can accumulate.

My above submission is not from any text but reasoning and I am subject to corrections.

It can only happen in Kenya n not Nigeria

He plan to present his suggestion before the Ekiti State House of Assembly for an approval which is certain as most members will not be defiant to his decisions and ideas.
