N500.00 a day is great if the food is so bad nobody will eat it. The hospital charges 500 people and cook enough for 10 people because nobody else will eat the crap they serve. No patient should be forced to eat hospital food. This is another way that organizations in Nigeria (with approval from Nigerians of course) mistreat people. If they want to keep it fair then charge more and make it a cafeteria. If the food is bad then people will not patronize them. If it is good then they will get paid. That is the only thing that is just. Everything else is basically the staus quo. Oppression and in this case the oppressed are probably the most vulnerable people. Wickedness

[b]Since we are talking about Desmond Elliot
1. He needs to go back to acting school or another performing arts institution if he plans to remain in the movie industry. I have watched his movies and I am disappointed. He does a lot of yelling an he overacts his part similarly to Tonto Dike. There is promise there because I do like his voice and he is one of those people who only needs some polishing on his speech. Whether as a director or actor, he needs to do his research. Reloaded2 was a hot mess. The first part was quite good, it set the plot but somehow when the movie involves a foreign location, the acting turns sour.

2. Exercise os your friend. This is not only a Desmond Elliot problem however. He does not have a babyface and it would help him of he was toned. He does not have to be muscle-bound, just toned so that he does not look like a flabby politician.

3. In the process of doing research, Desmond should hire screenwriters. Look at college graduates for inspiration and hire those people. [/b]

@  ifyalways

we can continue with this argument till day breaks but after all said and done, health is an expensive business. In the most developed nations of the world, you have to pay through your nose to get even some basic healthcare.

At N500 per day, it remains cheaper than most private hospitals.  If we dig deeper, you will find that, the longer the patient stays on admission, the cheaper he of she pays for food. If someone is admitted for a month, i think how it works out would be eg N300 per day rather than the full amount. The N500 is reserved for short hospital stays. Again i stand corrected.

It is not that simple a mathematics ie, N500 * no. of days. This total amount is only paid on discharge and not a daily levy.

They should make it optional; poster should write a petition to the Governor and the commissioner of health.

if Stella obasanjo hospital is the same as central hospital, then it no new practise. you have to remember health is an expensive business. drugs, equipments cost a lot. same applies to salaries that is always going up.

the meal fees i believe is only part of the hospitals internally generated revenue. i do not accept the hospital would feed their patients unclean or poisonous food. remember a good number of the nurses etc would eat from the same food.  maybe poster is an aristocrat or may have personal views/rules about meals served in a hospital hence his disposition to the food served

if he is displeased with the ongoing practice, it would be better if he channeled his grievances to the hospital authorities and/or the office of the commissioner of health in edo state.

N500 a day looks on the high side to be fair. i don't think it was this expensive in the past. wont be surprised if the hike happened after oshiomole came into office.

BB I dont know what is happening here; some things seem to have changed in the thread. Maybe the poster has edited her post

us women are very special creatures and never in a thousand years will we put a husbands cheating and his not passing his bible class in the same sentence

Note that she mentioned the baby as the first grievance. If she suspected cheating, that will be the second grievance (or maybe even the first) and she will not mention things like he doesn't clap in church or he no longer wants to talk until 3am in the morning.

I dont think she suspects him cheating; she just cant tolerate him anymore.

Sagamite:
Dream on, dreamer!

High Tech VC firms are pouring millions of dollars and hiring the best brains from Stanford, MIT, Caltech, Imperial, IIT, GeorgiaTech etc to try and compete and are failing and you are saying a one-man band in Nigeria [b]with inverter to help supply power will compete with [/b]Facebook.

Why don't you go into the Cement industry and compete with Dangote? Or go and compete in investment with Warren Buffet? Self Defeat?

The guy no wan armed robbers knocking on his door.

lola sammy:
oh dear chair cover you are indeed a life saver, i really do appreciate your contributions.

back to your word: yes your idea was right, but how do you convince a man who do not see anything wrong with the marriage to come to an agreement of finding a lasting solution to this?

If the profits of these companies find their way to Israel. I will boycott them.


It is war against Islam, hiding under the political hood. Israel have captured basically the whole of Palestine. They have their soldiers patrolling, they destroy civilian property, impose sanctions and oppress innocent people. Some palestinian groups retaliate, but israeli army is far far powerful. Couple of years back they launched an attack on Palastinians in Gaza strip and killed thousands. The U.S. and U.N. did not interfere. I saw the photos of the victims, it broke my heart. Since Israel is one of the major weapon exporters most of the countries keep silent on their atrocities.

So least we can do for our brothers n sisters in Palestine is boycott the product of companies which Fund their enemies.

In life wehave to learn from history and move on, we do not have to dwell on history. The Eu is advancing today because they learnt to manage their differences and not dwell on them. Diversity and plurality of minds, beliefs and people are part of Allahs plan on earth otherwise we would all be one, speak one language, one culture etc.

Arguing which is right sunni or shia is not my thing and i would try never to dwell on it. As long as we agree on the 5 pillars of islam , read the same quran i would move on.

Difference will awlays be there but the genuinity of leaders is how to manage the difference and exraxct the best from it and not how to dwell on the differenc and split us further.

Islam is a way of life and muslims have to learn to treat social issues as social issues. Arguing every point from the shias are this the sunnis are that only further divides us. Learn to separate the actions of rulerss from their people as most of the arab govts are not representing the people.
