This is one trend currently on now. All girls are now 23years of age. You will see a 40 years old ,after two, telling you she is 23

That's why I said earlier that the hunter became the hunted in this case

davillian:
they dont need so much people to do this one...
cut the supply from d manufacturer first and retilers has nothing to sell....
but gues what they would attack retailers and middle men

The manufacturers would simply start doing it the jungle way and then they'll be manufacturing rubbish

Nice one!

But will the enforcement work? Considering that NAFDAC is understaffed and Nigerians are very "law-abiding" people

The hunter has become the hunted in this case.

If you know what I mean..... you're wise!

Mods, this thread should be on front page!

The website site above is a designed and coordinated scam website! They claim they are associated with Jumia and that your duty is to increase product visibility to their merchants or whatever. They'll lure you with appealing messages and Facebook ads but they're big time SCAM!

They say their system randomly assigns tasks to people. When you register, they'll give you ₦2000 welcome find and some simple tasks to do. After doing the tasks, they'll credit your account with the ₦2000 plus some commission. Then, for you to get more tasks, they'll ask you to deposit a minimum of ₦5000 . When you do that, they'll give you more tasks . After exhausting the 5k, they'll require you to deposit funds before you can get more tasks.

Then when you deposit another funds they'll now increase the number tasks given to you and the prices of the items they claim you're buying. That way you'll keep depositing more money because the previous funds would have have been exhausted. They'll claim that your principal (ie the money you deposited) is safe but when you can't finish the tasks given to you, they'll not return your deposited funds neither would they return your supposedly earned commission. Your whole money will be gone!

So guys, when you see their adverts on Facebook or anywhere else, please run o! They're scammers and they've a sophisticated website that would make you think they're legit.

Mods please, move to front page to save more Nigerians from falling for them.

Allow your husbands to have multiple sex partners but ensure he uses protection and go for regular test to ensure he's disease free, keep praying him to change, if you can't take it anymore, pack out and seek ways to ensure change comes. Don't kill anyone.

Would you also allow your wife have multiple sexual partners? She'll be using protection and also going for regular tests?

Stop complaining about what your parents did or didn't do for you. They brought you to life and you should be grateful for that. What if they had aborted you while in the womb ?

Work hard and smart to create wealth for you and your family, many wealthy men today come from poor backgrounds like yours but they worked their ways to financial success. If you keep complaining about what your parents did not do for you you'll end up not making progress in life.

Besides, have you ever paused to ask yourself; what help did my parents get from their own parents? If you sincerely answer that question you'll discover that your parents even did their best for you. Many of our parents got nothing from their own parents, not even formal education!

Ok. So let's assume I did Google search and I'm not a doctor. What did your own Google search hit?

There's no research to support your claim that expired vaccines don't cause adverse effects. In fact, some expired vaccines have been known to cause adverse events in recipients. Also many live attenuated vaccines have been known to cause potentially fatal diseases especially upon expiration. So, next time, do a thorough research before you expose your ignorance on a public forum.

After smoking weed they'll go and carry masquerades to cause trouble. I nearly beat one yeye masquerade in my village during the Christmas celebration. Instead of the normal cane they're meant to carry, some of them now carry dagger and 2 by 2 woods looking for people's children to kill.

While I support cultural and good traditional practices, I think people who wear masquerades should be very careful with their conducts. Gone are the days when we believed that masquerades were some invincible spirits of our ancestors. We now know that they're humans who can be arrested or subjected to "mending"when they misbehave.

jaephoenix:
Oga,taking expired vaccines doesn't kill. U can do ur research. Don't argue with a doctor
I guys would just chest out and be dishing out opata and ewedu knowledge without a thought

Stop typing jargons here! You just did google search and saw peripheral information on the topic and rushed here to form efizzy without getting the whole gist!

jaephoenix:
Expired vaccines won't give dangerous reactions. The amount of empty folks online is alarming

You're the one who is clearly displaying your emptiness for all discerning minds to see

Op, don't feel bad about it. Being a fellow corp member, that lady sees you as NOT READY for serious relationship and at this level, she is set to get married. She'll be gunning for men who are ready for marriage and not for a fellow corp member! That's the way ladies are wired and there's nothing you can do about it. Again, know that that lady doesn't hate you. It's just that she feels you're not ready.

But don't worry, you'll get to the level where you'll also become the preferred choice by ladies and at that time, you'll be the one choosing the ladies you'll date.

Your opinions are spot-on. Vaccines storage and handling can pose huge health risks if not properly done.
Especially as vaccines are not "drugs"..they are actually "partially killed" viruses, weakened for body to overcome them by itself to confer immunity. But when not stored properly, the "partially killed" can regain its full potentials, causing the real viral damage to the body when given.

We have a case like this in Nigeria...the Pfizer polio vaccine that caused polio in Northern part of Nigeria many years ago.

Where this particular incident is troubling is that, mass cases of babies death would have been reported around that locality where the health centre is, if the vaccine is the problem.

You get my point?

It's still possible that just a small number of the vaccines were probably affected and just a few babies, including the twins, died as a result. In that case, it becomes difficult to know if the deaths were as a result of the vaccines. I got your point though

Exactly , last week I felt I bit headache, I went to a nearby pharmacy to check my BP which landed at 105/85.....I no know wetin e mean na.
Now the guy told me my BP is low that he will give me a medication I said okay. My mind immediately touched me I had to call my mom to tell her about it while the guy was arranging the drugs, my mom shouted at me to run ooo ..that 105/85 is good oo that I should run away from there.
Na so I disappear from outside even with the guy money.

You probably went to one of the roadside chemists or quack pharmacies. No pharmacy owned and run by a pharmacist would interpret that BP reading as low BP.

This is very disheartening news..

The state of the mother and father right now...what a tragedy!

That said...

The question will be, why just these two babies reportedly out of hundreds that would have taken the vaccines?

Hmmm... humans are very complex creature and taking medicine, sometimes, na complex process..,..it goes beyond "no be tablets, no be syrup, no be injections, no be vaccines" ..

As common as paracetamol is, wey everyone dey take am, some people dare not...if they do and there is not intervention..na die.

Thorough investigation will have to be done to ascertain what caused this unfortunate incident...the irony, it may not have anything to do with the healthcare providers...it may just be the body system of these beautiful souls that was lost too soon.

God comfort the parents

The question is; what actually did those kids receive in the name of vaccines? What quality assurance tests were carried out on those 'vaccines' to ascertain that they actually contained the desired molecules and not some poisonous substances?

People don't know that even improper storage and handling of a drug/vaccines can change it from the desired molecules to a poison! What we see in Nigeria most times is a situation where hospitals don't employ the right professionals but think they can employ just anybody to handle things that were meant to be done by professionals. This leads to cases like what we have in this report.

It is possible the batch of vaccines administered to the twins had been contaminated or expired. They might also have undergone major changes due to poor storage to some toxic products. Those are the possible scenarios that might have resulted to this event.

I just hope the right investigation would be carried out to unearth what actually led to the deaths of the twins

Senseless talk. I'll choose a virgin girl over non-virgin ones anytime any day! Being able to keep her virginity in this generation full of debauchery means that she has great values.

Meanwhile, why does it pain you when a guy decides to go for virgins? Are guys not free to make their own choices same way ladies make theirs by insisting on marrying rich men!?

Let the strike continue please! The federal government needs to understand that hospitals are not meant for medical doctors alone! All healthcare professionals are equally important as they play crucial roles in patients care.

The tendency of government to place the needs of medical doctors above those of other healthcare professionals need to be addressed once and for all. At a time when other healthcare professionals in the developed world are undergoing tremendous professional improvements and growths, their Nigerian counterparts are being stunted by medical doctors in connivance with government! That needs to stop! JOHESU should sustain the strike until government takes a decision on what they really want; whether to do away with other professionals from the hospitals and have only medical doctors working there or carry every professional along in terms of remuneration, professional growth and job security.

As a pharmacist, I have made up my mind to leave this hellhole of a country very soon to a developed nation where I can practice with sanity and get properly remunerated for my services. Let the Nigerian medical doctors kill our hospitals for all I care! If Nigerians truly understand and appreciate the roles pharmacists and other healthcare workers are playing in safeguarding their healths they'll not fold their arms and watch medical doctors and government destroy other professional services in our hospitals.

In the missionary hospital where I currently practice, I know how many times my interventions saved patient's lives and also their finances. Most of these medical doctors are grossly deficient in knowledge of drugs! You'll keep correcting the doctors until you get tired and just do the corrections yourself and dispense the right stuff without involving the doctors. Yet, all these interventions we do are not appreciated nor properly remunerated! It's unfair and that is why many pharmacists today are leaving the country.

I support this protest. People should learn and understand the basic mathematical concepts before they use calculators. Solving maths without calculators also helps the brain to develop and improves critical thinking abilities

The way the Nigerian social media speaks against doctors, you'd think nobody goes to the hospital anymore .

Even the poll that is put on the thread is strongly biased against the medical doctor, every option indicates one form of punishment or the other, no single room for appropriate investigation or verification of the facts of the case!

Nobody is biased against the doctors. People are only expressing their frustration with the healthcare system in the country. These doctors compromise standards all the time and do just as they please in our hospitals! They truly need to checkmated by ensuring they don't go scot-free after committing medical negligence like this.

Since the government has refused to do the right thing by taking away leadership of our hospitals away from the medical doctors and ensuring that only qualified and neutral healthcare administrators run our hospitals, medical negligence will continue to be the order of the day. This is because the medical doctor leaders of these hospitals will do everything to protect erring doctors because they all belong to the same association (NMA). That is why they frustrate patients who want to seek justice in courts after suffering medical negligence in hospitals.

What is the job of the nurse that assists during operations ? They are meant to take stock of instruments after every operation

"After every operation" you said. This error was made by the surgeon DURING the surgery so don't bring in the nurses here. So, if the nurses take stock AFTER the surgery and discovered that a scissors was missing and it was then found to have been left inside the patient, does that absolve the doctors of negligence?

When we ask them to marry early they'll not understand why. Ladies from the age of 18 should endeavour to marry on time when suitors are still coming for them.

How about those of us that love them in between?

I don't think protecting women by men will ever stop because it is a natural instinct of men to protect women. Women are the bearers and nurturers of life so every man that wants his lineage to continue existing would do everything to protect the females around him.

On multiple occasions, I have seen myself protecting women who were in one danger or the other and I often do it involuntarily. So, it's nature at work.

All these gender wars we often fight here are just cruise! Anybody who wants to understand the nature of male-female relationships should think about how the Sun( masculine energy) relates with the moon(feminine energy). The sun works during the day to gather resources which the moon utilises at night to nurture everybody! That's some deep esoteric stuff I have dropped here!

Peter Obi is just showing respect to an elder and The Wazirin Adamawa! It is normal way of greeting elderly people and traditional title holders. It doesn't mean low self esteem neither does it suggest that he's weak!

So, those making a fuss about this should direct their efforts towards getting the current APC government to reduce the suffering in the land. They should stop chasing shadows while Nigerians suffer from economic hardship!

We are one Africa and Nigeria has the richest and most glamorous culture, so it is natural for other Africans to want to identify with the Nigerian cultures.

Yes o! Governor Mbah is doing excellently well I must say. He's a Godsent to the people of Nkanuland in particular and Enugu state in general.

The celebrant is a man I love so much for his wisdom in steering the wheels of affairs in his community so perfectly that peace and progress are now the hallmarks of this lovely community!

May God continue to keep and grant him more wisdom as he reigns as the Igwe of his community...Amen

Some of you keep deceiving yourselves regarding what marriage entails. Marriage is not about your so called companionship in the real sense! It is about procreation within a regulated institution! So, any lady like this who's talking about marriage and not wanting kids is just plain delusional!

No man needs your companionship to make money, travel or do all those stuff you listed. In the real world, women don't even make good companions to men, so why telling us about marriage being for companionship That's a big lie! Marriage is for PROCREATION... simple!

Dangote Refinery would soon be doing its IPO, go and register with a very stock broking firm and buy at launch and sell within first 48 hours, then you can rinse and repeat. You can as well go for commercial papers of the likes of Dangote Cement among others.
Alternatively you can invest in digital projects that create Cashflow for users, last year I mastered how to fork Bitcoin and grow its value but it requires a network of people, if we can get 1000 persons that can commit like 5,000 to 10,000 naira across a period of 1 to 3 years to such a project it will make lots of success, but you know, Nigerians are often interested in quick returns.

For me I am creating a social network after Facebook shutdown my account, it's multipurpose but will begin for Nigerians alone, I am modelling it to have concepts adopted from Big Brother Naija (but digital version only) for raising funds for stabilisation of the project, engineering, server expansion and marketing. I will like to get investors as I am looking at floating a company for it in the USA or Estonia for future expansion to other countries, if you are interested you can chat me up on 08089456258

So much stuff you've got here. Thanks for sharing
