llade:
I am based in abuja and want to ask for help. I experience shortage in d power steering oil guage and have been topping it regularly. I have given it to my mechanic twice for repairs but no improvement has been recorded. D last tyme he worked on it, he said it was d steering rack n suggested he repairs it and av d seals changed rather than buying a new one. But after spending almost 20k in 2 separate repair attempts its still d same old story. Just topped d oil dis monin n observed leaking power steering oil just under d steering rack by d drivers side. D power steering pump seems not to b leaking. Pls I wanna ask for a permanent fix n ow much d steering rack costs so I replace it outrightly if dat will solve d problem. Al also appreciate a referal for a gud mechanic in kubwa abuja. Thanks.

Just for one classrom?
She must have studied in abroad!

Macmilla:
Thanks.
I know about the scanning. I've actually ordered for a wireless scanner but wanted to get more info here.
The car idles a bit erratic a times but mostly steady. But the engine won't rev above 4000rpm (query limp mode) and much noticeable is that response to throttling is erratic. Most times the car acts like it's afraid and few times it acts as if something is pursuing it.
I hope the problem is as simple as changing the TPS and not my gearbox.

colossus2:
I kept shouting and stopped teaching.
Common to turn the key and start the car was an issue initially, then while accelerating you would see both hands at the base of the steering, while turning the hands would form a cross on the steering (instead of freeing one hand while the other turns it).
I gave up mehn

AT a time reference to Nigeria in global news and international affairs has been mostly about the unending killings by terrorists in the Northeast, the Ebola management seems to be shining some positive light on Nigeria and its medical personnel, some of whom paid the supreme sacrifice to ensure that Ebola was controlled.

In an effort to bolster the confidence of its people that Ebola would be contained in America, few days after a Liberian national was diagnosed with the deadly virus, the manner Nigeria handled its own patients is now being used by the US government as proof that the virus would be contained in America as well.

This is coming just as the Nigerian Ambassador in the US, Prof Ade Adefuye, assured Nigerian travelers to America that they would not be subjected to any form of medical screening on arrival at US airports.

Speaking late Friday afternoon at the White House at a hurriedly convened press briefing on the first Ebola case diagnosed in the US, top White House officials and US government health officials were pressed by journalists who pointed out to the failure of the Texas Presbyterian Hospital in Dallas, where the Liberian patient went, but was not immediately diagnosed even though he had told the medical team in the hospital of his symptoms and that he had just returned from Liberia.

A White House reporter asked at the press briefing “Is nobody concerned that there were these breakdowns in Dallas? And are you really confident that there’s not going to be similar breakdowns elsewhere along the same line?

Responding the US Human Health Services Secretary Sylvia Burwell was the first to bring up the way Ebola was contained in Nigeria to reassure Americans at a press briefing beamed live all across the US and globally.

Said she “ we’re confident these processes will work. If you look at what happened in Nigeria in terms of the cases in Nigeria, what happened is we quickly activated — and CDC was a part of supporting the country of Nigeria both at the state and federal level to be put in place the things that it needed to put in place. We know it’s about detect, isolate, treat the patient, and do the contact tracing. Those are the steps. And now we see where we are with Nigeria in terms of the cases and them having moved through.”

According to the Secretary, who holds the office equivalent to the of Health Minister in Nigeria, the US will “continue to work on our education and continue to work with locals and put out more and more information, we put out more information and updated information. Whenever there is anything that we see that we can do a better job on communicating, we will do that.

Adefuye who issued his statement on the same day the US government officials addressed the press briefing also noted that “the U.S. government, especially the Department of Health, is very much impressed with the success achieved by the Federal, Lagos and Rivers State Governments in combating Ebola. The announcement by Nigeria that it will assist other African countries to combat Ebola has been well received by the U.S. government and public.
