D R A M A L A N D I hail o o o!!!

Does'nt these people have advisers, instead of re-strategising for Thursday....na look I dey look una o o.

E pele dear...THIS IS NIGERIA.

...bettet save their energy for Thursday. WISDOM!

This is becoming serious.

Maybe all of d above.

...better dey save their energy for Thursday. WISDOM!

Truth. No 'Bragging' here.

Bros, dts not good. Pray SERIOUSLY against it, u might not recognise it now; but d whole thing is working against u. Sweep off d water while in its littleness.

5. (& most importantly): Her time of crsis. This enables u make necessary adjustments dt would save d marriage, otherwise, u 're OYO.

Tnk u dear. More grease to ur elbow.

100% truth. Tnx.

My man, do ur own( pray & search, even ask for elderly advices; in this, they are pro), & leave d rest to God. Good women abound. Hardwork is also needed on ur part, because while non-marital affairs are sustained by luv, marriage is sustained by understanding & forgiveness.
'Baby mama' thing 'll only scatter ur life d more. Check d history.

Tnx OP for this, & tnx to d western world. If not for ur purposefulness, who know how we for be?

Here d history of ur relationship with ur parents becomes very important. H/ever, accept d job first & try to make ur parents u/stand ev/thing just as u 've done here.
All-in-all, gdluck bros & give us d feedback.

Hmm. Touching, d life of a Nigerian youth. I 'll pray for u, & if u 'll continue like dt, d sky is ur limit. ...d will, ...d way.

Life! First thing in d morning, say ur prayers. Ds life is full of mysteries.

I am a Nigerian doctor, and I work in Nigeria.

I have been on call, 24/7 for the last 365 days, no weekends no leave. Why? Because the community hospital where I work in cannot afford to pay many doctors at the same time. Why? Because the patients cannot afford to pay for basic healthcare services. Why? Because the economy is bad. And if they can't pay, how can you give them QUALITY healthcare?

I handle emergencies with rechargeable lanterns.

I site intravenous lines with my phone torchlight.

I consult in a room with no fan, let alone an A.C, and I am expected to rack my brains and make diagnoses, even though I see a large number of patients within a short period of time.

I have had to operate on patients with phone torchlights.

I have had to improvise an incubator with a CARTON for a premature baby.

I have had to use a suction bulb, instead of an AMBU bag or an oxygen delivery apparatus, to resuscitate a baby.

I have had to use 5 ml syringe to resuscitate a patient in shock because there was no infusion set [compare this to using a spoon to fill a bucket with water]

I have practiced for 3 years but my bank account doesn't reflect it. Why? Most of my patients are poor and I am forced to pay for their treatment. Fact!

I have managed diabetic crises without hourly RBS, let alone tests like SEUCr [compare this to sailing without a compass, or flying without a radar]

In the western world, CT scans, MRI, ECGs are obtainable in the emergency department. Largely because there's an effective health insurance scheme. But here, my patients can't afford 3 square meals, they cant even do low cost tests like FBC, MP and PCV [each of which costs approximately #500], so how can they afford CT scans and MRIs, most of which costs as much as 50k to 80k for a single test.

How do you want me to diagnose them right when I cannot do these tests to confirm my diagnosis? By magic or clairvoyance?

I am faced with these daunting challenges. And I am faced with two choices: to watch them die, or to use my brain, my raw clinical acumen, and improvise to make ends meet. Most times I get it right. But sometimes, who knows, I may not. Why? Because I am no fucking "mutant X". I got no x-ray vision! Neither do I have a magic wand.

So next time before anyone compares me, or any other Nigerian doctor, with the average doctor in the western world who has all kinds of " medical toys" at his beck and call, the person should do well to bring such a person and place him on a 24/7, 365 days call in this shitty hell hole and compare his mortality rate with mine. Only then can we have this talk.

Yes, there are incompetent Nigerian doctors [ I am working on an article on that ], but so there is in any other profession, both in Nigeria and in the west. Yes, even in the Western world! John Hopkins recently published a study which revealed that the third commonest cause of death in the U.S of A, 3rd only to Cancer and Heart disease, is doctors' error! That is in the United States.

So, contrary to what we may think, "misdiagnosis", "negligence", "incompetence" is not peculiar to "Nigerian doctors".

We should stop blaming "Nigerian health care workers" and fix our system. The government has a lot of work to do. And until we do that, it would be unfair, perhaps inhuman, to compare our health indices with that of the western world, and to blame our healthcare workers for supposed "incompetence", when it falls short of what is obtainable in the western world.

I want a situation where there's an effective health insurance scheme in place, where the average man in the street can afford basic healthcare delivery, where I can run as much lab investigations as I want without being afraid that the patient may not be able to afford it, where every patient has an ECG monitor by his bed side, where I can do CTs and MRIs even before taking full history, where I wouldn't have to improvise incubators with cartons, where I wouldn't have to operate with phone torchlights, where ......

This is what I want. But I don't have that luxury. So I try my best to make ends meet in order to save lives. You should really take a walk in my shoes.

I am a Nigerian doctor, I work under impossible conditions and still generate positive results. I walk with my head held high.

Hoo-yah! #copied

Kudos to d writer, all d doctors & workers in ds country, & actually all d resident law abiding Nigerians. #WEDEYTRY!!!

sainty2k3:
The cost is not what you can determine , you will know that as you go on in the treatment. Patients have shown some doctors fa.

True.

sainty2k3:
That same doctor can not rush to a pharmacy and get the emergency drugs on credit not to talk of getting it free. The issue about Doctors and emergency cases is like this can only be resolved with good health insurance scheme. Probably all they need to do is to scan the man's finger print , get him treated and the Insurance coy pays the bill.
If the doctor treat 3 emergencies and no one pay him. How will you ensure that you still meet that Hospital there in the nearest future

That's it.

Olalekan Adetayo, Abuja

The Acting President, Yemi Osinbajo, has sacked the Director-General of the Department of State Service, Lawal Daura.

Osinbajo’s spokesman, Laolu Akande, disclosed this on his Twitter handle, @akandeoj.

He wrote, “AgP Yemi Osinbajo has directed the termination of the appointment of the DG of the DSS, Mr. Lawal Musa Daura.”

If its d only thing ds man could achieve in ds administration, baba, personally I know dt in a more sane regime u ll do more.

OboOlora:
I hope Osinbajo is acting on the orders of the dullard. Cos if not, na Adebole go epp am beg by d time Bubu starts with him

Now, he is d (Acting) president.

jayfolarin:
This is why I tend to wait and read from all sides before hastily jumping on the bandwagon! PDP claimed APC were trying to impeach saraki but the APC senators were never even in the NASS building to begin with.

They showed a list of senators AGAINST the sack of saraki but not even ONE PICTURE of the plotting senators surfaced anywhere. That's sketchy at best!

Looking at this very closely, one could see a similar pattern with the 'DSS seige on saraki and ekweremadu DRAMA' from a few weeks ago.

This Daura guy is obviously complicit and working for powers outside the presidency!

Still watching......

U make more sense my man.

Liar!

Might be true ( d property aspect), happened where I currently live.

Very true and painful. Even when I created a thread here to seek help.. Nobody gave a damn about it. Same People that couldn'thelp only react when the person is dead.
All will be well.

Sorry bros, I tnk God u survived it.

Depression is really real. They tell u to speak to someone, but the truth is.....No one cares to listen! No one wants to help. Everyone with his or her own problem. You can't blame people though, cos the economy is also not helping the situation.

I tell u the truth.....the real cause of suicide is hardship and the ability of not being able endure or bear it anymore!

Still, suicide is not the best solution!

#God help us all

I hear u bros, dt's how it is in ds side of d globe.
