I was weak, tired and sick altogether, left my home as as early as 8pm on Monday morning, with the mindset of beating the traffic congestion to the closest general hospital at a far distance from my home - Apata General Hospital, Ibadan.
I knew with the kind of health complaints i had, i would need a test conducted on me, "well, i need a doctor's recommendation on that first", i said to myself. So i decided to see the doctor first.
Entering the Hospital, i have to get my file first,
"Hello, good morning, this is my card i need to see the doctor"
"is this your first time here?" a female voice from the record room
"No, although it has been a while i came here", i replied
"okay, you'll have to pay to the account dept first"
"alright, kindly show me the account dept" i requested.
She pointed in the direction and i went there, paid 200 naira and collected a receipt, then back to the record room.
"have your seat I'll attend to you" she said.
Okay, after about 15 minutes she requested both the card and the receipt then returned both after tearing a part of the receipt and using my card to find my file. I was then told to sit on a queue and wait for my name to be called by the doctor, it was almost 10:00am.

I have got about 6 patients before me, it wasn't a big deal until i had to wait and move closer to the consultation room on the seat until i heard the doctor call my name 2:10pm.
Is this how people get attended to here? I thought my suffering was over, not knowing I've just seen season one.
I explained the symptoms of my illness to the doctor and he recommended i have a blood test first.

Getting to the laboratory department, they said they can no longer obtain a sample for the day and I will have to come back the following day. I asked if it was possible that the sample is drawn and i can just come for the result the following morning. I was told that is not possible. I will have to come back to give the sample 8:00am the following day.
I was left with no choice, so i had to go back 8:00am on Tuesday
"Hi. I was told to come back this morning for a medical test"
I handed her the leaflet from the doctor.
"okay, it's 1500 naira, and you'll have to purchase a glove and a needle from the pharmacy"
I quickly did that,
"here is the glove and the needle", i said.
"okay, have your seat while we obtain your blood sample" - she replied.
The blood sample was obtained and i was told to come back 12 noon for the result.
Chai! will i have to waste half of a whole day here again?
The lab attendant saw the look on my face and told me -
"just hang-around and come back around that time".
Had to wait around and went back for my result 12 noon.
"Hi, am back for my result" - i said
"have your seat, it will soon be ready" - she replied
So, this result isn't even ready at 12 noon.
The test result was finally issued after 45 more minutes.
Dashed again to the Records room, explained and got my card to the doctor's office within 30more minutes. And that was almost 1:30pm.
Those on the queue for the day were already tired and lamenting the queue wasnt moving at all.

There were two doctors inside, one that attended to me the previous day and another doctor.
After some minutes the doctor that attended to me the previous day left and there was just one doctor in the consultation room.
"Why are you standing there?" - He asked
"I need to see a doctor sir" - i replied
"i have been here yesterday and was told by the doctor to go for a medical test, so am back with the result" - i further explained
"when was the test conducted?" - he asked
"the sample was taken 8:00am today and I was told to come for the result 12:00 noon, i just collected the test result, that's why i am here to see the doctor now sir" - i explained again
"they couldn't have said that, if you have been here earlier you would have been attended to" - he said
"but that was what i was told" - i replied
"You think those on the seats are fools?, i will make sure no one attends to you today, what is your name and give me your file"
i gave him my file and he immediately kept the file under some of the books on his table
"Go and stand outside, no one will attend to you today" - he screamed.
I had to just leave the premises in annoyance, frustration and unattended-to after all the sufferings.

If this is what has become of our medical care system, am afraid we are sitting on a time bomb because there are infections, diseases and sicknesses that are killing patients under the skin quietly and require urgent attention else the patient dies a quick painful death. Are these the hands we have on deck? Our Governors need to act fast! We never can tell who would be next in this kind of experience, our families, friends, colleagues, considering not everyone can be so buoyant to afford a private clinic and not everyone is so strong to withstand this in sickness.

Why didn't you call Osibanjo?

I thought once your son becomes the VP or President of Nigeria, your area becomes El Dorado. I find it hard to swallow that SW and NE are suffering equally as everyone else after all the noise and bragging about producing the VP and President respectively. What exactly is in it for you folks really?

Keep voting along religious and ethnic lines instead of competence and accountability. There were other candidates besides Buhari and Atiku.

What exactly do you expect? The doctor must have thought that you voted for CHANGE. That is the only logical explanation for taking out his frustrations on you.

\

The fact remains that AC Oraifite Commands and SARS Commander Ichi died useless death playing to the gallery on the orders from "above". These two had no business being at the scene. Whoever ordered them to lead the operation is an enabler.

They are dead. Case closed. The people enjoying this news are their deputies in office. God has elevated them to "oga" overnight.

And we called them billions but swimming in the oceans of debts,remove that huge amount from his money and let's see what left.



Our treasury makes most of our so called billionaires what they are today through legal or illegal means.

/
You don't know anyone's actual networth in Nigeria until s/he dies. Many families who thought they were billionaires were shocked when creditors showed up on the death of their head of household.

I ask U a question, does the "CEO" with all the remittances have a private jet? this is the reason we are been fooled in this nation, educated illiterate everywhere. no wonder the Bible says "my people perish for lack of knowledge"

/
So in your little mind, luxury starts and ends with a private jet. There are folks who live better than the egomaniacs with private jets. The Momphas of this world will make you think they are better off than the rest of us. Who is the "educated illiterate" now? You are probably one of the morons that equate expenditures with wealth--he spends the most, therefore he is the richest. Get lost!

The election is over.

Any roforofo between the two Fulani brothers, they will gladly sacrifice Onochie on the altar of infamy. Onochie is a slowpoke. She is doing herself.

The Nigerian Police Force has released the names, ranks and pictures of the two policemen that were allegedly killed by IPOB activists in Anambra.

See the previous thread about the issue (warning: the thread contains graphic pictures of the charred bodies of the policemen).

Who would believe that these two gentlemen are dead? Two months ago, AC was really happy that he will be moving into his new office in the complex being built by Sir Emeka Offor. Such is life.

Requiescant in pace.

godwinkessi:
Which of them has a private jet?

/
They can't own private jet(s). They are only district managers. The CEO is in Rome which is the headquarter that receives all the remittances from all the districts around the globe. Catholic and Anglican churches are multinational corporations.

Brandstudio01:
Lawyers in the House, please what crime have this man committed exactly. Please name his crime in a Democratic government

/
He used the term "Revolution" against a dictatorial government. Beyond elections, their are other ingredients that make up a democracy which the current government is lacking. Cameroon, Uganda and Zimbabwe have textbook definition of democracy. But have you noticed how one man ran the show for decades? Even the US that exports democracy, their criteria is not a clearcut majority wins--they still have the electoral college loophole that threw up Trump even though he did not score the majority of the votes.

Sowore should know that trouble is easy to get into but difficult to get out of. The ease with which he will be abandoned by his enablers should serve as a lesson to others.

[quote author=wwwihy post=84592891]Anambra has no billionaire. Stop using billionaire as cheap word.

We have only four Billionaires in Nigeria
1. Aliko Dangote
2. Mike Adenuga
3. Folorunsho Alakija
4. Ishaku Rabiu

Any other billionaire is fake[/quote]/
Barking at the wrong tree?
We are Nigerians and we use naira. Don't envy the billionaires instead chamnel your frustrations at the FGN that depreciated the naira so much that $2.8m makes one a billionaire. Why hate the beneficiaries?

You can be a billionaire too. Move to Zimbabwe and become a billionaire overnight. Or better, re-enact slavery and chain them back to US to make sure they remain millionaires since US dollar (which you probably have never touched) seems to be the only currency you acknowledge from your little village hut. Don't let envy kill you.

Vision2070?

Dead on arrival. Black people's brains are not wired to plan beyond 5 years. From IBB all the way to GEJ, we have had many visions that died natural death once the tenure of the incumbent expired.
Obiano's second tenure has been very dismal. Too many broken promises. Too many abandoned projects. It is not unexpected because governors use the 1st tenure projects to secure 2nd tenure. Once reelected, looting is activated on a stealth mode to secure their bags.

APC's ideology is anywhere belle face.
PDP's ideology is anywhere belle face.

That's why when the politicians crosscarpet, no orientation is necessary. They already know the drill.

I look forward to seeing Dino back in APC soon.

They must verify their state of origin.

Set up ogene dance at the park. Indigenes of Enugu have a peculiar dance moves to ogene. If you can't dance, you can't board. Simple as that.

Watch all the sufferheads fight over themselves who will congratulate her the most as if that will automatically lift them up from their miserable existence

Some will join the bandwagon in order not to be tagged "haters". You can never make it in Nigeria if you cannot oppress people. They may respect you but they will never worship you unless you squeeze their balls hard enough.

Some of you were cursing out the man that said marriage is not for him yesterday.

Oga would have been alive if he had stayed on his own.

Whatever you decide, just remember that you are just a number in your career. As such, you are dispensable. It is silly to choose one over the other. Learn to combine both and be blissful in life.

Just like asking food or water? Well...you need both.
\

/
You are 25. That's why.

Every young lady has a fantasy list until they hit 30.

Ever been to a High School reunion? There are some of your flamboyant classmates when in school you will see later in life and ask "what happened?!" It is called life. Keep praying so that you don't become a victim of phantom high standard.

/

/
Such is life. Like they say,"life ain't fair"

This is a lesson to those who complain about losing out on opportunities because of their mode of dressing, hairstyle or tattoos. To them I say...Tough luck! Dare to be different is for only those who can afford it. Flavour has tattoos. Jack Dorsey wears nose rings. Chukwueze colours his hair. Michael Jackson wore hand gloves. Kanu & Flavour braid their hair. Look in the mirror dear. You ain't any of the people mentioned and you don't operate within the realm of their profession.

Bite me!

Empty threat.

They don't even consider this one a real muslim.

The interested party let their action talk if and when necessary.

SMH.

This is just sad to watch.

The people in the know usually do background intel on the organization giving the awards to decide whether to honour the invitation or not.

That's why Presidency and governors sent in low budget representatives to collect the meaningless award from an obscure news-peddling outlet.

Can you imagine? The greatest inventor award from IgbereTv. The first question will be: Who the f$#k is IgbereTv? Where is the office address? For the fact that Alexreports is involved says it all. The mini-importer bringing in those plaques from China must really love him.

/

/
I like how the ex-husband is pretending like he is not happy about the ex-wife's ordeal.

/

/
I thought it was one of those Alexreporter's gimmicks again. Oh well...

How come none of the award recipients cared to show up?

\

Did he give you a "Negative" result out of pity?

It seems like he didn't want you fainting in their office.

The government claims not to care yet their paid goons are all over this thread typing trash trying so hard to make it look like Nigerian don't care about SOWORE

Read how empty and weak their comments sound

They are trying so hard to sound like the masses aren't supporting him

SOWORE 2023

/
I didn't see you in any free Sowore parade.
Were you one of those running at the first sound of gunshot infront of DSS office?

What do I know? According to ORosunBOLB, "Yoruba people don't run". Oh well...


/

Sowore is a poor negotiator. Hopefully they wont serve him the Abiola tea.Abiola was killed and Nigeria still exists.

He should learn from Nnamdi Kanu. He should agree to whatever conditions they present. But as soon as they release him, then he will start making noise again

the employer is unserious or she is probably a woman scared that the job seeker will come and take her shine in the office.
Jack Dorsey, the ceo of tweeter uses nose rings and styles his hair in an "unprofessional" manner yet he is still leading a giant company successfully. nigerians and their misplaced priorities

/
Jack is the co-founder and CEO of twitter. He can come to work in shorts and singlet if he wants. Appearance is of little importance in programming. Linda Ikeji can go to her office in a mini-skirt. You are the peasant looking for employment and must abide by the rules. You can't play a football match wearing a helmet because it suits you. There are rules in life.
Who lost the opportunity? She did. She can pontificate all she wants. There are many competitors for the position.

Don't feel like going through all that hassle? Start your own gig like Jack and then call the shots.

Nigerians are not against corruption. Their grudges are that they are not invited to the dining table which is why as soon as anti-corruption crusaders get government appointments, they go mute. Think of the Reuben Abati's of this world.

/

Dare to be different? The herd are yelling at him to conform.

It doesn't matter if he marries and kills his wife a year later out of frustration.

So far he ain't hurting anybody. I respect his wish.

\

Whoever shows up with a Bible or includes biblical quotations in discussions in Nigeria is a prime suspect and must be treated as such.

The only innocent pastors in Nigeria are the ones that are yet to be caught.

LifestyleTonite:
Leke Adeboye, the son of Pastor E.A Adeboye, the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG, has called for prayers for rapper Kanye West.

This is in reaction to the news of the rapper becoming a Christian and now a gospel musician after years of living as a worldly musician.

Adeboye who shared on Instagram stated that Kanye West needs prayers because is conversion to Christianity has seen an increase in the rate at which people search for the name Jesus on Google.

See the screenshot below.

/
If there is anyone that needs prayers, it is Adeboye. He needs to repent and like Zaccheus return the money he scammed from his poor cum gullible followers. He ain't getting any younger and sure aint taking any of the worldly extravagance with him. Benny Hinn recently started seeing the light.

A resident makes minimum wage?

Shows you know nothing dude!

...and a resident is not practicing in your books?
A Resident a student doctor ?( do you know how ridiculous that sounds)

So you write step 1 in Ghana, 2 in the US-- are you going to sit down there?

Don't people write the exams and come back home?
You think they pack their bags to go write step 1 and 2 and sit down there?

What are you saying dude?!

You know there are thousands of Nigerian Doctors in the US right?
... and I mean Nigerians working as Doctors!

/
The taste of the pudding is in the eating.

Write your exams and come to US first.

Simple solution.
