Sealeddeal: are Boko Haram members going to throw away the weapons they captured from Nigerian army? They always use them effectively. What stops Nigerian army from using them?

PointB: Before we get swayed by the doctors tantrum, let's not lose sight of their 24 key demand.

Summary of the doctors demands:

1. Create more offices (and more money) for us
2. Don't send anyone to monitor the money
3. Skip level 12, we can't wait to collect more money
4. Refer to Nos 2
5. Pay us 22 years areas of some money, and then increase our wage
6. Expand the health bill so we can make more money
7. Appoint one of us surgeon general so that he can protect us and fight for our money
8. Adjust our level so that we can make more money
9. Increase our call duty allowance by 90%
10. Adjust upward our specialist allowance
11. Increase our hazard allowance from 5k/mnth to 100k/mnth
12. Release circular showing our allowances, all of us must be included
13. When we need to import In-Vitro Diagnostics, IVDs equipment, we don't want knowledgeable institution to check/license it.
14. Tell us our retirement age (obviously they don't want to retire, more money to be made in active duty)
15. We want more funding for our residency training
16. For peace to reign pay our colleagues in Owerri what you agreed
17. We must continue to enjoy the goodies in IPPIS platform
18. Attempt to prevent our collective bargaining (for more money) will be resisted
19. Lab scientist should stop intimidating us (we are the big boys, we make more money)
20. Stop short paying us for any reason (we want all our money in full)
21. Do for us what they do for doctors abroad
22. Set aside more money to furnish our offices (hospitals)
23. Medical director must be a medical doctor (It can not be a pharmacist, dentist, and never a lab scientist). We must chop alone
24. Stop violating our 2009 agreement. Pay us our money!!


There you have it. The two dozen demands of our doctor in plain language. The demands causing our brethren to die at home, and in hospital while doctors stay away. These are the demands making our people to resort to bathing and drinking salt water to death, as they run scare of Ebola Virus Disease, while our doctors prefer to stay at home and wait for their money.

Our doctors have sworn to protect their moneys, while our collective health is the ransom! If gold can rust, pray, what will happen to Iron?

DRealGeesam1: My confession and apology

Dear nairalanders and everyone who have heard of the ebola Prevention "News", My name is Adesewa, I am coming out clean because what started has a joke has escalated into the unprecedented.
How it started
Yesterday i was with friend in her hostel, we were talking about this Ebola out break, when one of my friends, Funke (she introduced me to nairaland) brought the idea of Us playing a prank on our friends. The first suggestion was to tell people that aloe very could cure Ebola, but we thought it would sound too ridiculous so we forgot about it.

Later that even an idea came to me (i now regret that i did it).
I decided to send a BBM broadcast message to my friends, telling them that the Ministry of Health has asked everyone to bathe with salt and warm water and drink some of it.
I sent the message 7:08pm yesterday

Later this midnight i started getting calls and messages that i should drink salt water and bath with it.

All efforts to tell people that i was the one who started the joke failed. Only my friends who i mentioned earlier believed me. Even my mum could me this morning, i did not know what to tell her.

I am using this medium to beg you all to warn and tell everyone, before they drink salt and damage their health.

Please dont be hash on me. I know this has gone out of hand. I never knew it will be this serious. Some have even added to the original message i sent.

Kairoseki77: Yes, construction is ongoing now. idea came from Tinubu and is being carried out by Fashola. Just like Eko ATlantic.

When it is done it will be bigger than Heathrow Airport in the UK.

Hold on, lemme get some pics for ya.

*I will be back tomorrow morning with pics. It is time for sleep.*

Symphony007: There is a partnership between the rivers state government and Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC), for which they have paid NDDC about N960 million, for the Mother and Child Hospital and NDDC is expected to bring about N900 million to make it N1.8 billion for the hospital. The stadium is about to be completed and many more.

Despite the hard line posture of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), the Presidency has opted to reach out to the aggrieved governors and leaders of the New PDP New APC to give room for the completion of peace talks with President Goodluck Jonathan.

owobokiri: Finally the Nigerian foreign affairs ministry comes alive..., next bust stop? China!

drnoel: So the Governor lied...4 thos hoping to re-elect this man. He will do the same thing he did to his own wife to them.

frankyychiji: You are d one who got it all twisted. Read ur post n think again. This woman said she was unlawfully detained for sooo long. Falana claims he has written complaints fr her or whomever ascertaining her unlawful detention and maltreatment by the governor. The hitherto media recluse Chime was forced to admit d press n human rights commision into their home to investigate. He gave them unhindered access to her. They came to say dt d bone of contension was prolly in d choice of docs who shd treat her. Firstly, dis woman denied she didn't contact Falana. D next tin she was accusing d HRC for writting negative tins abt her health nhad brought her image to disrepute. Dis woman n her advisers shd hv known d import of wot they wr doing wen they involved sahara reporters a known agent of distabilization! Now, d "monster" husband has given her d access to fly around d world and b free n she is talking about her coming back to d same monster dt has maltreated her so badly! D Govs womanising traits wr full known to her b4 they got married. D gov met her during one of his philandering flights! She was a friend to chimes daughter. Her sister was impregnated by Chime and kept it. Dis womans family and upbringing leaves so much to b desired. She n her sister r obviously worse than d gov in terms of morality.
Falana shd hands off dis case as it is a purely family affair as cn now be seen. Falana shd go to d various prisons to save d hoardes of human rights denied inmates there and d inmates wl eternally be grateful. But wl falana do this? Not likely bcause it has not political reward!
I am fully in support that chime shd divorce this uncouth and lazy morally bankcrupt woman he calls wife!
And who told u she has to liv ceremoniously? If the man was a poor man, wd she wait to liv in a grand stlye?? Ans is NO! Mrs chime wanted freedom. Its her RIGHT to have it. She shd take it and go! D other legal aspects wl come later. But for now, they hv to painfully separate!
