alBHAGDADI:This is the most reasonable contribution amongst the thrash spewed by some here. Most some people comment at all? |
realtalk19:This is the very mistake many do. General hospitals have most qualified staff and their fees well subsidised. With N100k, your total case is settled there. St. Raphael have no mercy when it comes to issues of depositing before operation. Even at critical stage, they will watch the person die rather than offer palliatives. Many previous patients taught them bitter lessons. Meanwhile, for many of you saying scam or sounding sarcastic, may you not find yourself in a situation that may make you do this. lf you want to help him, go ahead, if not keep your mouth shut. |
Cantonese:Oga, they stylishly removed the concluding part of that 1 John 5:7, from their own Bible. You will not see it there. Check the New World Translation and compare it with King James Version. |
manando1:No wonder they manufactured their own Bible and replaced Jesus the Word 'God', in John 1:1, with god. |
CareerBegger:Yet you could not send her anything after this epic investigative journalism? Na wah ooo |
Alexgman1:Wrath of the father or the gods? |
...but senseful to allow killings continue unabated. |
I want to understand something here; Is FG paying private schools teachers' salaries or giving them avenue to access loans to survive these crucial moment? Those that understands this stimulus package, please explain... |
What's last price (including delivery)? Location: Lagos. |
Is either he has been keeping too many relationships and cannot see himself been married to just one or he missed his calling of being a Reverend father. |
Why not be specific? Lonely sex starved single ladies should apply. How can you be in late 30s, yet looking for 40s. Age may be just a number, but with hips means, you have interior motive. Over to you ladies. |
Not sounding sectional or sentimental, but here is the case of another Ibo woman. May GOD help all these bad women from all tribes. |

Saudi Arabians should send some of their highly enlightened men to MURIC, BOKO HARAM members and thousands of Imams in Nigeria, to educate them on how civilization is not enemy of religion. All these installed at the front of their mosques are products of technology made manifest through Western Education. |
Franzinni:One happened of recent on a TATA Bus on it's way to Ikorodu, Lagos. The man kept poking the woman from behind. The woman kept enduring because the bus was jam-packed. Upon alighting, exposed the man and told him to make his ways right. |
sweetsell:Is this not too hard? |
Jokerman:N500 is not a slight increment. Why are many filling stations not selling petrol for N123.50k, since it's a slight deduction? |
LadySarah:Please share as I searched everywhere for their decoder. Even their office at GRA, I learnt was sealed. Either by them or agency. I can't confirm that. But what really happened? You can code and not mention names. Sad! |

Presidency may approve local herbs to battle COVID-19 — Health Minister ON May 6, 2020 7:43 AM / IN Coronavirus Updates / BY Nwafor Ehanire. Minister of Health, Dr. Osagie Ehanire, yesterday told the House of Representatives that President Muhammadu Buhari’s government was open to the possibility of using local herbs to fight COVID-19 pandemic, but insisted that the Nigeria Institute for Pharmaceutical Research and Development must first certify any such remedy. Ehanire, who disclosed when the Presidential Task Force on COVID-19 briefed members of the House of Representatives, also said it was wrong for hospitals to turn back patients as a result of fear of the virus. He said the government was not ruling out the possibility of using local herbs for the treatment of the disease, adding that what the government was saying was that those who claimed to have found cure should subject it to test by the Nigeria Institute for Pharmaceutical Research and Development. He said local herbs could be categorised into drugs that could cure the virus or those that could reduce the symptoms, and noted that the body must be able to build the required antibodies to neutralise the virus. Ehanire said: “Before now, it was said that Chloroquine can destroy the virus but tests are still going on in that regard. ‘’We have to test the efficacy of local drugs to see if it can kill the virus and also to find out that if in the profess of killing the virus, it can affect the body. So, the Institute will carry out the required test on the local drugs.” He warned that doing so may result in another round of national health emergency. The Minister also said many people infested with the virus might not display any symptom and innocently be infesting others with it, noting this explained the need for self-isolation and staying at home. He said those without symptom werecapable of transferring the virus to others with less immunity and that this was dangerous. According to him, the solution is to keep everybody in isolation. While describing the situation in Kano as sad, the minister said the Federal Government was currently participating in various research to find a solution to the pandemic. He, however, dismissed claims that the mysterious deaths in Kano was caused by COVID-19, adding that the PTF was still waiting for the result of tests carried out in the state and was, therefore, not in a position to attribute the cause of death in the state to the pandemic. He said the statement attributed to the PTF team leader in Kano was completely false, adding that the PTF would be able to make a comprehensive statement on the Kano situation once the test results were out. He also dismissed fears that relaxing the lockdown might lead to increase cases of the pandemic as experienced in other country, stressing that the only way to have reduced figure of COVID-19 was for people to strictly observe all measures put in place. He said the PTF was in talks with the Manufacturers Association of Nigeria and some state governments on the possibility of producing protective gear locally, adding that as a result of global demand, protective equipment were currently scarce in the global market. The Minister lamented that some Nigerians were running away from isolation centres, while others have refused to report themselves for isolation. Vanguard All rights reserved.
